Capt. Numpty,
same comment about turnaround time. We saw a Ryanair 737-800 in front of us arriving on stand. Passengers got off in a few minutes. Then I saw a Cabin Crew sitting on her crew seat through the left foward door for 2 or 3 minutes after the last pax got off.
Then the boarding started... So in 2 or 3 minutes, the crew completed a cabin security check and cleaned the aircraft, for all the 180 seats!!! And that with one of them sitting on her crew seat !!!
Pretty good, I thought...
MOL keeps on boasting himself on his on time performance compared to other operators, but is it really safe?
I was in STN following a Ryanair aircraft after landing. My company is very strict about taxi speed. And we saw the Ryanair aircraft "disappearing" in the horizon... Before we arrived on stand.
Do they get bonuses if they are on time or what? I would be interested to know... That could explain a few things...
