Re the iPad, I commented it about it in the other thread as the ISMs were actively using it on 3 of my 4 flights this past week.

Most CX crew are just working for a (meagre) living...

Re cathay delight: as long as you made a crew working in y to take sth from the front, its a sin. Or a y cup/glass contaminated with cathay delight.

the staff just went from crew mk to crew-bytherulesonly

Dear DMs & OWEs - If you need an ISM greeting to make you feel better about yourself. You don't need an ISM, you need a shrink. Love, your fellow DM.

Is CX(KA) the only airline in OW actually greets OWE?

I know that QR, JL and AA do, not BA...think I may have read about it happening on QF and LA too.

(sorry don't know about the niche ones like RJ or S7)

Economy observing:

QR does greeting during boardin / entering the aircraft. JL does it during the first meal service, but since almost everyone has status it's sort of crazy and pointless Haha. UL actually greets OWS and OWE. RJ does basically nothing.

CX however gets it spot on. I really appreciate the bottle of water.

There are indeed some DMs who go too far.

In July 2014 there was one quite famous DM who had his MPO membership terminated, and his status went straight down to AM.

This was according to a CX staff who showed me an email by Linda Sim.

Apparently he was famous within CX for causing lots of trouble to ground staff and inflight - and he was someone who held public office. In the email he was referred to by his title and not by "Mr. / Mrs. / Ms."

Interesting about the complimentary / complaint letters. I wonder if a non-AM pax can be tracked to (I fly on my BAEC account).

The ironic thing is, with a history of say complaint letters, you probably will get good service because they want to avoid that letter. Lol

Well, some DMs go too far but OWEs???
Do they really think they should be treated as DM?

The answer is no, ISM cannot see OW elite CX flying history / complaint/compliment records. I actually didn't know until recently, feel like I wasted a lot of time and effort writing a 4 page complaint earlier

But on their ipads there are also 'CIP' and 'VIP' categories of which I know there are OW elites in these groups, that would be a different story.
