I was on a bus the other day with a QF flight attendant and she told me that due to some ICAO rule pilots at QF would no longer be able to have their family travelling with them while they are working. My guess is that some lunatic thinks that there is a security risk if a terrorist holds a pilots family member hostage in the cabin. I can think of about a million reasons why this is a stupid and futile attempt by some pencil pusher as to make sure the 'authorities' work against crew instead of with them. . .again.

Any one know if there is any truth to this?
