I remember when the NRT incident was being discussed, you became quite angry that someone published the crew hotel name on prune and now here it is in the paper.

the mustang ranch

Could have been a limpwristed pilot, god knows there are plenty of them in QF.

Apparently Emirates starts these fights as a way to get Pilots sacked so hopefully they will come to work with them...

Here we go... lets bring on the speculation!

Its probably not a great idea to post all the details on here if you actually do know them, but trust me, its more media beat up than full-blown drama.

Hmm, if the fight was between a few business men, would it be on the news? I don't think so!

QFRegional,

That would be fun to watch 3 limpwristers throwing their handbags around, maybe that was the cause of the problem, a stray handbag knocking over the drink.........

Ronnie Honker,

you are correct as to qf's lack of concern for it's staff's welfare however the accommodation in LA is quite a reasonable HOTEL.

The problems that crew have with it, are it's downtown LA location.
The whole COMMERCIAL/OFFICE area closes outside of business hours with the crew unable to leave the hotel as the area is unsafe at night.

The girls can't leave the hotel during the day to buy water/fruit etc. from the local store without doing so in groups.

Homeless vagrants have on occasion stolen food from the crew eating in the complex food court with the call of "Hey buddy, got a dime" the norm when walking during daylight.

Hundreds of qf crew inhouse at any one time with no option but to "socialise" in the crew room.

Just one big happy family really at qf.

Jettlager

P.S. The rooms are rumoured to cost $25 USD per night....................................

Let's see, Qantas uses the GRADE model in decision making.

G. Gather the FAs.
R. Reel them in.
A. Assault them.
D. Deck them.
E. Evade the cops.

Yes, it does work.

Listen son, when I said always be prepared to go around, I didn't mean with the cabin crew.

Ahhh Yes

This is fodder for the chattering classes,the hoi polloi,the buffoons...those whose lives are so boring,banal and empty that they take delight in others misfortunes,misadventures and grief.I can hear the small yapping dogs now......

Grrr

Strange that other company's crews do not express the same insecurity.

Personally, I feel safer in downtown LA than I do in Kings X. Have never heard of any of our crews staying in, due security.

Perhaps the Qute crew feel a bit out of sorts as there are ONLY the homeless accosting them rather than those of varying sexuality that inhabit Kings X, and the thugs in downtown Seedney.

Ahh there's no place like home, eh Warren.
