Maximum limits are the "goal/target". Sort of like the edge of the safety margin. Ok, as long as the operation is within the margin. But no buffer, no leeway, no room for error, etc. Are the Safety reports indicators of how close to the margin the operation is? Read between the lines of some of the reports. There is always the human factor involved.
The public relations, marketing of this airline does not indicate it is a low cost operation. First class all the way, right? But the way employees are paid, treated, respected and appreciated, proves this airline treats its employees as bad as some bottom feeder LCCs. Five years ago, cabin crew were not quitting in the hundreds weekly. What has changed? Instead of reading the tea leaves, they're just throwing gas on the fire. Good leadership and management.
