I'd say that's a difference in interpretation...

You can trust your source and I'll trust mine.

Flight management also said they weren't going to buy houses for excess if you didn't live within a certain distance of your domicile. I didn't believe that one either.

LK also said anyone who didn't vote for HKG LOA-1 was short-sighted and that it would be easy to find accommodations for $2700. He cited his experience as an ALPA guy to say this was the best we could get and we'd be foolish as a crewforce to vote it down.
