Flight was supposed to depart at 10:05 and return at 20:45.Assuming that the crew checked in for work one hour before departure (say 9am) and the flight is two hours late (crew leaves the plane at 24:00), that would mean a 15 hours day. Is that beyond "normal" hours? Is that a manifestation of the staff badwill from salary negotiations?
