There is 2 to 4 flight crew and 15 or 16 cabin crew.

So 2-3 boxes of 20 chocolated should be good...
Lindt usually has large chocolate bag options....

Having found something that was a little bulkier than I'd originally been contemplating (mince pies, a sample of which had been truly delicious), it was a good thing that we were on a smaller aircraft that meant that we could just manage to bring a box each for everyone. We staggered on board looking for all the world like West African traders returning home with new stock! They seemed to be well received. This was a great idea!

I also got the crew a box of unusual chocolates on my Christmas Eve's flight from Hong Kong - I'm glad I didn't go for the Lindt as I found there were some for sale in the on board shop!

Sadly, I only had enough room in my carry-on for one box, and I think one of the flight attendants thought it was all for her! Mental note next year: give it when there's more than one staff present!

Makes a change from the usual kitchen sink and stove that they try to get away with as cabin baggage!
