Funbags,
Not only do I find it annoying that the faaa have got the company to agree to a procedure that they had already agreed to (now that is a huge win) as you correctly pointed out but that the faaa did not ask the membership if they were happy with the offer of a shopping bus instead of moving to another hotel...
This could be a new point of law..
If one party in a dispute agrees to a solution in that an existing agreement that was previously used and agreed to is accepted to resolve the said dispute ...is that called an excursion in redundancy or a superfluous exercise in law or maybe a redundant superfluous rhetorical snow job.
So because the area around the hotel is considered unsafe the faaa get the company to put a shopping bus on!!! So that we can walk around an area that the company moved us away from ....This is right out of a comedy sketch.....The boys in Monty Python would love this one.
By putting the bus on the company is admitting that the shopping area around the hotel is not safe...or they would not have made this offer..
How many crew are there in LA at any one time?
If you miss out on the bus because it is full what happens then ?
This is another huge win for cabin crew and the faaa and Darth must be shaking in his boots with the thought of another confrontation with the faaa...no wonder they gave in to the allowance dispute.
Now it looks like the company under the disguise of 2 S/H cabin crew are having another go at the seniority system...They would love to say "sorry crew but we have to go to an allocated rostering sytem because the commission is making us"
Is it too late to apply for VR??????
