How to stop toilet blockages from leaking
First it was the blocking of toilets on Cathay flights. Now the news of any similar mishaps in the future will also be blocked - although not, we assume, by the same substances. In his latest weekly memo to staff, director of flight operation Nick Rhodes said he was "no longer able to share too much information" with his colleagues after his report of a series of mysterious toilet blockages on its Airbus fleet was leaked to the Sunday Morning Post last week. "We will just have to explore other forums to share the news - maybe the chief pilots' newsletters," Rhodes wrote. So how much further can the airline go to prevent passengers finding out about such fundamental matters? Perhaps doing away with the "occupied" signs could be the next step?
