Isn’t Huffington Post the British National Inquirer?

When I was on the ER, I was on a 3 day in Paris. When I woke up to get ready to fly back to JFK, I was informed by the Captain that our aircraft had returned to BOS right before track entry. The ETOPS sign off hadn’t been legal. (It’s a long story). Three of the five FA’s were BOS commuters and when they landed for the proper ETOPS sign off, the three BOS commuter FA’s claimed fatigue and walked off the aircraft so the flight cancelled and we got an all expenses paid extra day in Paris. I was on a green slip so I wasn’t upset at all.

I don’t know why I mentioned this. I guess ops has this happen often enough, they do what they can to avoid the opportunity.
