. I do get the point as the attractiveness would disappear and some destinations, such as Indian nighstops and LAD, would actually benefit of such a system. However I think you will find some crew not willing to do longer flights, like SIN, and receive less pay as to what it's worth today.
but surely this attitude is part of the problem. Cabincrew seem to have developed the idea that their basic pay os some sort of 'retainer' and that the allowances are their 'pay' for the trip! What if all allowances were replaced by an identical rise in basic pay?
What would happen then?
An hourly rate means it evens out your salary over the year and minmises the chances of abusing the rostering system.
Anyone saying they are unwilling to do a singapore for less than they get now has seriously misunderstood the ba cc remuneration system.
