Well helloooo Flybygirl! You are correct, unfortunately however I have seen a dispute involving cabin crew, and guess who replaced them? Our mutual friends, the management. Unfortunately, and as you're no doubt aware, cabin crew replacements can be taken "off the street" and trained in the required emergency procedures in several days if need be - cleaning and catering are also able to be outsourced to unskilled labour. I'm not trying to upset anyone, nor look down my nose at them - simply a statement of facts.
