Don't be nervous about coming into work! It's easier said than done but you will be looked after and trust me when I say that many crew are coming to work!

I'm in the middle of a B2B and roughly 70% of the crew decided to do the 2nd part. The last flight of this B2B is done on 747 (the other 3 have been on 777) and some were worried that we would be picking up "striking crew downroute" on the way back who flew out earlier this week. Our CSD addressed this to a manager and she said we would not be leaving until they sorted it out and gave us reassurance. All dealt within a few minutes.

We are staying in different hotels (no, they won't tell you which one if you call them), met by managers downroute and escorted through the airport. There's a very little risk that other crew will see you or get hold of your name.

There were no volunteers on my flight this morning and from what I have heard very few flights are crewed by them because of the number of regular crew turning up!

To round off this message I have to say that one of crew on my trip is an ex BASSA rep and is completely disgusted with BASSA's behaviour.
