The 777 would normally have a First Class cabin for that single toilet, so in actual fact the standard is 2 toilets for J Class which you were supplied with.
Before you go on the defensive - remember I have not excused the Purser's poor attitude on this flight.
This is not a blast at you, workflyer, but at this stupid rationalization that washrooms can't be shared between crew and customers. I suppose, if indeed there were 12 or 16 First Class seats, it would be permissible to have the front washroom shared? And why is this the case on the 777 but not on any other AC aircraft?
So it's alright for passengers to share their loos, but not crew?
I'd love to know the actual clauses of whatever health and safety or collective agreement this little beauty comes from.
Talk about class and caste systems!!!!!!!
