Regarding DHD, there is some very contradictory published information out there and I smell a revision, somewhere, in the future.
The company can't tell FAs that DHDs must clean and tell Pilots the opposite. You are either right, or they used the wrong word when they typed Duty in that last sentence. Perhaps they really meant operating pilots.
Maybe this would be a good question for the next episode of Ask Johanna? Is it only operating pilots that are exempt from the expectation to clean, because this is what Inflight is being told and what was published in the field notes, and elsewhere.

Like I said, the FOM is crystal clear, and it's on Comply so you can look it up if you so choose.

While I agree that "cleaning" is a requirement when using pass privileges, it's NOT required when on duty travel. The FOM is clear. Pilots are not required to clean when on duty, and DHD travel is definitely duty. Also, DHD travel is NOT using pass privileges. You're traveling on duty, for work, and even if your pass travel were suspended, you could (and must) DHD.

Thank you. I got on and it was one of those Big front/space seats, just behind Mint. Impressive service and small touches like the earplugs/eyemask kit. After the flight I did cross my seatbelt and ensure the pocket in front of me was clear of garbage. That was the extent of my helping out post-flight
