Self Positioning at behest of company by Hire Car
UK AOC Holders
Is it common practise for some operators to expect Flight Crew (and not Cabin Crew) to Hire a car, and self-position themselves at the behest of the company prior to a FDP ?
Whilst it saves the company the cost of a round trip taxi fare, this derogatory slip towards the DIY ethos is also an insurance issue as well surely ? And I am not talking of an hours single journey either.
How many UK companies do you know employ this sly tactic ?
