We were positioning from the UK to the Middle East. As we were on duty we tried to go through staff search as we are allowed to do. Numpty said because we were not in uniform we were not on duty and so must go through passenger search.
Back in the UK a few weeks later I saw couple of security staff going on their holidays waved straight through staff search in their shorts and flip flops, no ID to be seen!. My concern is there is no consistency.
I thought about writing to Chirp, The CAA, Balpa etc but what is the point?
