Passenger boarding without flight crew - what does your airline do ? ....
Here at a large low cost airline in Europe (shouldn't be too hard to guess which one !), we have just had a memo from our Chief Pilot in which he tells us that "like many other airlines", cabin crew are now allowed to board the aircraft without the presence of the flight deck crew, provided that the APU is not running, and fuelling is not taking place.
I can see all kinds of potential pitfalls with this procedure...... just wondered what the "many other airlines" do ? .......
