VICK, are you saying the cabin staff continued reading commercial-type PA announcements when something was clearly amiss? Hardly something to give a "thumbs up" too!. .. .In fact, we are trying to remove these superflous PAs from our company since the passengers are being bombarded with PAs starting from on-board DUTY frees to RENT-A-CAR ads etc. In the end, most of the pax start ignoring the PA.
