You totally miss the point. Why in a 24/7 industry do handling staff expect to be payed overtime to work after 8 PM? I'll bet no airline surcharges it's passengers for night flights and I know not of any airlines who pay their aircrew 50% extra for working after 8. There again, I have been known to be wrong. I recently wanted to go into Gatwick at 11pm on a Saturday evening and leave 11 am next morning. CREW ONLY. The only task asked for was to pick up the crew in a bus and drop them off the next morning. Quoted £600 for handling. Declined the kind offer.
