There's nothing worse though than being a Captain stood in briefing waiting for an F/O who's commute in has been delayed.
Very true and crews that are late for duty for any reason,especially because of commuting..should be sanctioned.
I am afraid the reason behind may be for a different reason than a fatigue issue since stonecold is writing duty rest can be 10 hours..
Could it be that the airline wants pilots on a stby basis so their flight can be changed more easily may it be required by operations?
Is management bending under crew scheduling?
Over worked,under paid,continuous one way concessions and
off pilots doesnt help the situation....
