it was just a statement. most crew kill for a few extra nights as they are all 1 night stopovers now unless your snn crew operating the 4 flights 2 JFK a week where some of them get 2 night stopovers. most crew prefer a longer stopover so they can do a bit of shopping, yea your right those that have children maybe not but it all comes with the job. Cancellations and delays happen all the time all be it not on the scale that we are seeing at the moment. I get your point. I was just saying and assuming that Aer Lingus would provide expenses for each night extra that the crew are there.
