Never has been a Christmas for any airline staff. In forty nine years of flying I only scored 15 at home. That's the job, that's always been the job. Hard on families, and a lonely time in a hotel for crew, even having some sort of lunch with other just as lonely crew, does not make up for the kids faces. But it the job, always will be for both aircrew and ground crew, part of the package. Make the best of everytime you score being home!
