[QUOTE] I flew to Rio recently on BA. The whole experience was of the highest order. I boarded the aircraft, said I was CX staff and asked if there was any chance of an upgrade, within 5 minutes the CSD had gone to the cockpit asked the Captain and returned to give me the good news. I sat in Club World the entire way. Would this happen on CX for us let alone other airline staff, like hell it would! QUOTE]
I beg to differ. During my brief, I tell the ISM (infront of the cabin crew) to upgrade any staff to J class pending seat availability. I haven't had any repercussions - after all, I apparently am "ultimately responsible" for everything....but I'm digressing from the point of the topic.
Getting back, wongsuzie sums it up:
[QUOTE] Stop moaning, the reality -what ever the quality of service ppl still fly CX.

And yup the attitude is: you're welcome to try those a fore mentioned rivals.
