We are safe until Feb 1st!
NTC 2010003-2
Ladies & gentlemen,
Following a security audit and at Corporate Security's recommendation,
effective from 1st Feb 2010, all crew members are requested to keep their
luggage with them at all times during the hotel check-out process, until the
luggage is loaded onto the crew transport. Should a hotel porter offer to take
your suitcase out of your sight, please decline this offer.
Ian Renwick
Flight Crew Personnel Manager
Pheww...guess we have until 1st feb and then obviously the world turns to custard....idiots.
Renwick trying to play with the big boys by putting a "i told you so" date on his attempt at keeping us safe.
Freaking Micromanagers...

I agree with Iflyplanes. What is the point in this NTC? Why suddenly this nanny state fixation in CX. Surely there have been security issues for a while now, how is this going to make things safer?
It appears the airline is just jumping on the bandwagon to make it appear like it's doing something. That something doesn't have to be meaningful it just has to place a cursery nod towards an ill defined, imaginery, terrorist threat and that suffices. It's also a case of justifying jobs.

Well, it is with immediate effect and has been for years. In VOL ( insert number) SECURITY section.... Thou shalt not leave your crew baggage with hotel staff out of sight. I regularly have to tell hotel staff not to take the crew bags away as they are not permitted to.

First we need to be told how to dress properly, now we need to be told how to take care of our own bags... Geez, we must really be a bunch of retards.
Just as well they don't trust us with the safety of hundreds of people then.

Yup, gotta watch them bags, least they grow legs and walk away, or....as my First Officer found out one morning in CDG, when he didn't pony up the cash for last nights hooker, and she threw his bag and flight kit out the hotel window.
Underwear scattered all over the hotel parking lot.
