People seem to be harping on about how dare airlines send people to a place of danger.......excuse me.....but aren't the passengers the ones who decide if they want to go or not. The airline does not hold a gun to their head forcing them to board the plane.
I have been operating crew to Bali days after the bombing. Sure I didn't want to be there and would have rather been elsewhere, but you know what people were still going over to enjoy family holidays with young kids......now the airline is not to blame for that. They are just providing the service.
So whose the idoit? The airline or the pax?
However I do understand the concern of sending crew to a place that is not desirable. Though I'm sure most airlines that everyone works for has ways of dealing with that if you feel your life could be at risk, simply speak to someone about it.
