Crews Trapped in Europe:

[100/hour/5y]

For the crews trapped in Europe what is your Airline’s management doing?

At CAL: Free phone calls, free hotel Laundry “after expense report” and a so called free dinner on top of the $48dollars a day in Per Diem…

Only 15 Euros for dinner… Management wants the Captain to buy and then take a written roll and then submit an expense report when he gets home with receipts and the roll call.

Dinner in Oslo and the UK run $40-60 on the low end!

Is there a requirement that they provide anything if you get stuck in Europe?

You seem to be upset and a little surprised that they are not doing more...do you not work for the airlines?

More importantly are they going to give the crews time off for the liver transplant

UAL crews each get $40 + per diem a day??

Cal just upped it to 22 Euro a day extra per diem. Captain no longer pays for everyone. 4:30 flight pay per day or value of missed trips whichever is greater.
I'm getting tired of Copenhagen, but the Hotel is very nice.

This must be the General's dream come true. A 250 hr layover "across the pond."

Where the heck do you go to eat? I can easily get out of the UK for $25 and thats having a great meal and a couple of beers.

...UK run $40-60...

double bangers and mash?

You're on per diem, right? WTF.

Suck it up and enjoy!

If you wanted a 100 percent expense account, you'd have found another line of work!
