I wouldn’t call the Premier Inn at Heathrow luxury, either...

No matter how you look at it, ultimately this is still not Virgin Atlantic.

"Luxury hotels" like matching "mouth-watering menus that are thoughtfully prepared using locally sourced, seasonal produce and elegantly presented"?

Drugs too!

Go onto any of the gay apps downroute and you will find crew looking to hookup and source drugs.
not just the pilots that need stricter controls.

Do they identify themselves as crew, or simply forget to take their uniforms off (completely

) in the accompanying photos ?

You have such a beef on BA I wonder why you still work there. Everything is always the airline's or the staff's fault. Must be hard to work somewhere that all colleagues have imperfections.

uniform is hanging up nicely in the hotel room,they dont want to "crease it" off the job
they do have an image to uphold onboard.
you can usually get a BOGOF, they are all Family after all.

Both.

Typically the former, though.

Can someone please tell me at which hotels I can find naked flight attendants running down the halls? I'd pay a premium to stay at one of those.

I guess you look for the one with all the Daily Mail and FT readers in the lobby complaining into their tablets. And missing fish.

Young flight crews are having fun in their off-time. Who would have thought it?
