From: The Ultimate Crew Rest....
The main problem with the company is that each department cares very little for the others.

You only have to go back to the JFK snow bound aircraft to see this.

The cabin crew who worked from LAX were close to having a vote for extending their TOD.Knowing that the aircraft did not have the fuel required to taxi and then fly to LAX the tech crew and the local manager made the decision to push back.This was done with only one thing in mind and that was to prevent the cabin crew voting not to extend.

So much for CRM and fatigue considerations.......as far as the underfloor crew rest is concerned,it is certainly consistent with other actions by the company
