Cathay Pacific cabin crew vote for industrial action

Now on the BBC News - Cathay Pacific cabin crew vote for industrial action
Cathay Pacific's cabin crew have voted in favour of an industrial action after their salary negotiations with the Hong Kong-based carrier broke down.
The Flight Attendant's Union (FAU) said it may implement work-to-rule measures to begin with, which could limit the services offered to passengers.

Unless they have changed radically since 1996, yes, I think the difference would be very evident.

Personally I find CX the best of the best and fly with them at every opportunity and that's irrespective of class of travel.

They are the benchmark by which I measure all other airlines and that's as a BA Gold card holder

Airline is well run but it's a bit British Airways in the cabin

I think the Cabin Crew standards have fallen quite a bit recently. Cathay Pacific delays ad campaign after staff photo scandal | NEWSWARPED.COM

HAHA, in my part of the world the words service and smile are just about non existent. More like if you don't eat your peanuts like a good boy we will threaten to hand cuff you to the aft galley!
