GalleyHag,
Too true,
but at least it is one less place for them to base crew and it forces GD to explain to the shareholders and the board how he messed up and that means one less chance he has before they ask him to look for a job elsewhere.
Wan2Fly,
The story actually came from inside QCC in Sydney,and if you look at some facts they all seem to add up.
1:LHR crew with huge slips,QF does not want to give crew 3 and 4 day holidays for nothing,they only do that because they have to
2: The QF 1 the other day arriving in LHR with 8 Thai based crew..Why??Are there that many LHR based crew going sick upline?
3:recruiting for LHR as well,if it so efficient why more crew
LHR base was set up to reduce costs and if it does not achieve that,then it will not survive.
This as I said has nothing to do with the crew or managers,I know of some good people up there ,the reality is financial ,it is just a dollar (or pound) issue
