Relief Crew

Oval3Holer
Flight delayed until next day due to no reserve crew?
Let's not overlook the pathetic fact that Cathay Pacific doesn't even have a pilot on reserve at its largest European base!
IN actual fact, CX says that "Cathay Pacific were unable to organise a relief crew" as a reason for the overnight delay. It intimates that no relief crew was organised. It leaves open the possibility that the originally scheduled crew did the flight. After all the pilot in question was available on bail ---- and it would be much cheaper !
