We heard one attendant complaining to someone that the number of passengers they were dealing with went from 1,100 a week to 30,000 -. They sacked / laid off all their staff during Covid and now they expect them to all come back to help them out .. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

One of my friends had a flight booked today, they delayed it this morning by 3 hours but said to still arrive at the airport normal time. He got through the queues and security ok but then they cancelled the flight 3 hours before take off

Yes in Manchester Police were called to get people off a plane that could not leave due to not enough staff to fly it. Covid-19 and Brexit are the blame Reporters are saying. Last edited by arista; 01-06-2022 at 12:37 PM. |
