So are you suggesting that British Airways and Singapore Airlines as well as all the others who are flying to SARS areas are having special protection measures for the crews while AI is refusing to do so?
I may not know much of flight crewing limitations but insisting that any aircraft/crew be quarantined for 10 days before you operate the flight isn't it asking for too much (even with the overstaffing Air India is having).

Incidentally the Air india Cabin crew who also seem to be concerned appear to have no such demands, especially considering the fact that they are equally exposed to SARS?

Please enlighten me!

Cheers
