Headcount
This is nothing really new. In the early 80īs a flight to Berlin was correctly closed with 100 heads on board. Before pushback, the captain called in and was very upset, saying the cabin crew headcount was 104, which was not legal with two cabin crew on a 1-11. Bridge was moved on again, it was found out that some Turkish women had carried babys in their bags in order to save the fare. Which was very stupid, as on Internal German Services infants travelled free. Every flight with Turkish People was a adventure,
to say the least.
