As a result take yesterday, BFS DUB ALC was by a 319; Belfast crew took the plane with all 28 passengers to DUB (not surprising load so light as it was the last one), the Belfast Crew were sent by taxi back to Belfast and the Dublin crew came on and took the plane to ALC and then Back to BFS.
These crew had to be taken to DUB last night by taxi, so since Friday probably 5 taxis approx.
The reason for this crew change is due to Union agreement, where BFS or LGW crews cannot operate out of DUB.. Amazing. . .
Unbelievable. The union is dictating to the airline which of their pilots are allowed to fly their planes. Amazing is not quite the appropriate word..appalling, more like. Worse still is that the airline, instead of putting these idiots in their place, actually goes along with it.
