Seriously? Would you want to have to get to the airport 2 hours before your shift starts? When flight crew are travelling for pleasure, they wait in line like everyone else. I would quit my job if I had to be there 2 hours early, un-paid. That makes no sense, Ron.
FA’s get paid while they are flying as I understand it. Not while on the ground. So no matter how early or late they are in getting there they don’t get paid until in the air. A “professional” understands that the time spent preparing for work is just as important as the work itself.
People commute to work all the time. For many a 2 hour commute would be nice. I drive 20 minutes to get to work then have a 20 minute bus ride to the airport. All unpaid. It’s a part of doing business. If I want to work I have to do it.
