As promised a quick report from the CCR before the next flight. Incoming from MEX was as good as it gets. Plane busy but not full, attentive and personalised service - including from the Mexican crew member who knows me and knows exactly how I like my Bloody Marys - Woke about 50 mins before landing and they put together a full breakfast for me with no fuss. Exactly as it should be. Shame BA can't be more consistent.

Great to hear. The local Mexican crew have always been excellent with me on my numerous trips back and forth.

I suspect no such system exists but is just up to the CSM to evaluate a crew member. With crews never having a fixed team I would be fascinated to know how or if this is achieved.
1 Bring it to the CSM 's attention ASAP.
2 Send in an email describing the shortcomings.
Hopefully someone with a genuine eye to upgrade CUSTOMER Experience see the uptick, identify recurring comments on specific routes and take actipon.

This leads quite nicely to Alex Cruz's view of his staff going forward:

Thank you CHCflyer. I must have missed that blog post.

I have been saying CUSTOMER Service is the key. Quite a few posters ( count two known!) took to my saying CUSTOMER in caps and block, saying I am shouting.
This after identifying my previous position as CUSTOMER Relations Manager for 20 % of the world's largest company. Eventually entered bankruptcy.!
If one looks at one's job / life, no matter what we do /job descriptions are , we serve CUSTOMERS at all times, within a company or even a family.
