Chapter 148: The Crew Was Corrupted
"Hmm? Master, do you have a class today? No, right?" Xu Xian and Qin Zongyang met unexpectedly at the door of the flight preparation room. Xu Xian glanced at Qin Zongyang with some suspicion. He clearly remembered that Qin Zongyang should not have been working in the past few days.
That's right.
Qin Zongyang glanced sideways at Xu Xian and became angry: "Wang Lingkun...he was not feeling well, so he begged me to fly for him."
Originally, Qin Zongyang was going to talk about that old guy Wang Lingkun, but when he came to his mouth, he felt that it was disrespectful to speak like this, so he swallowed it back.
In fact, Qin Zongyang is a little overthinking. His identity has long been completely lost by himself. Although his temper has been tempered recently, he still looks like a bandit in the minds of everyone. He still has to worry about his verbal mistakes.
It's really not necessary.
"Teacher Wang, please? Is there still such a thing? Can you check me? Don't you need to avoid suspicion?" Xu Xian said a little strangely.
Although Xu Xian is only a student, he has been with Xu Qing for a while and knows all the conventional rules in the industry. Xu Xian also knows that it is not convenient for the master to inspect his apprentice.
If word of this gets out, people will gossip about it.
"Yes! If I can avoid suspicion, I definitely want to avoid it! But Teacher Wang is crying and begging me, so I can't just ignore it! I am a soft-hearted person, and I don't like seeing people cry. You see, Teacher Wang is almost at the age of retirement.
Holding my legs and crying so hard! If I still don’t agree, Teacher Wang will faint from crying on the spot? Xu Xian! We must respect the old, love the young, and be willing to help others. These qualities cannot be lost." Even outsiders.
It seems that Qin Zongyang is not a good person, but in front of his disciples, Qin Zongyang still wants to maintain his image. So he yells, closes his eyes, and talks nonsense. Anyway, Wang Lingkun is not here, why not let him make up random things?
The corner of Xu Xian's mouth twitched: "Teacher Wang is crying and begging you? Is it true or false?"
Xu Xian felt extremely weird just by picturing that scene in his mind.
"It's true! I'm almost going blind from crying. If I keep crying, someone will die!" Qin Zongyang hurriedly pushed Xu Xian into the flight preparation room and wanted to end the topic. If he continued, he couldn't hold it anymore.
Xu Xian was pushed all the way to the alcohol tester by Qin Zongyang. Seeing that it was still early, Qin Zongyang said to Xu Xian: "You sign in first, get the information and get ready! I'll get a glass of hot water!"
Xu Xian nodded, said goodbye to Qin Zongyang, and went to take a breath test first. Then he turned around and wanted to go to the dispatch booth to get flight information, but he found that there was already someone in front of the information booth.
"Replacement? When?" The first officer looked at the name on the mission sheet and his brows knitted together. He remembered that the captain of this flight should be instructor Wang Lingkun! He took out his mobile phone and looked at it.
After downloading the electronic mission sheet, the captain on the electronic version also changed to Qin Zongyang.
The dispatcher shrugged: "Anyway, it wasn't a temporary change before the flight. That's how it was when I released it!"
If the captain selection was temporarily changed, the dispatcher should have been notified. However, when the flight was released, the dispatcher discovered that the captain was Qin Zongyang, and there was no change thereafter. This means that the change in the captain selection has been made.
It's been a while, not temporary.
"Who was replaced last night?" He also checked the flight plan last afternoon. At that time, the captain was still Wang Lingkun.
Just when the first officer was confused, Xu Xian stuck his head out from the side: "Hello! Are you flying flight 6881?"
The first officer followed the voice and turned to Xu Xian, nodding: "Yes! Together?"
"Hello! I am the second officer of flight 6881. Hello, brother!" Xu Xian greeted the first officer politely.
"Oh! Today is the route inspection for your upgrade, right!" the first officer responded. In the notes on the mission sheet, it was marked that this flight was the route inspection for Xu Xian's first officer's transfer.
The first officer paused: "I remember that the original inspector was Teacher Wang Lingkun, right? Why was he replaced by Mr. Qin?"
"Teacher Wang is not feeling well, so I will replace him with my master." Xu Xian was naive, and he really believed Qin Zongyang's nonsense.
The first officer was stunned for a moment: "Mr. Qin is your master? Then he checks you... can he still do this?"
The first co-pilot obviously knew the rules and was quite surprised by Qin Zongyang's behavior.
Xu Xian scratched the back of his head in embarrassment: "It must be a coincidence, but if I can't find the right person, it just so happens that my master has time."
To be honest, Xu Xian still blushed a little when his master examined him.
"Oh, maybe!" The first co-pilot couldn't judge Qin Zongyang's behavior in front of Xu Xian.
Now that he figured out what the situation was, he had nothing to worry about. He had doubts before because he was afraid that there would be something wrong with the mission statement, but now that the situation was clear, it was nothing to worry about.
The two of them took the flight information and found a table to sit down. Soon after, Qin Zongyang took the water and slowly took a sobriety test before coming to Xu Xian and the other two.
Qin Zongyang put the water glass aside, yawned, raised his eyelids, and glanced at the first co-pilot: "Keep your mouth tight!"
Xu Xian didn't understand what Qin Zongyang's sudden murderous words meant, but the first officer was very sensible and quickly promised: "Mr. Qin, I will definitely not tell anyone about this inspection."
Qin Zongyang was very satisfied with the well-behaved first officer, and a smile appeared on his face: "Young man is quite sensible!"
Only then did Xu Xian understand that Qin Zongyang wanted the first officer to keep the route inspection a secret and not to talk about it everywhere. Although Qin Zongyang was thick-skinned and didn't care about the master's rules for inspecting his apprentices, it would be better if fewer people knew about it.
OK.
"The company called me just now. The No. 1 intersection is under construction and cannot pass. There are a lot of units at the No. 2 intersection now. The company asked us to leave from the terminal." Qin Zongyang said: "You should pay attention to the boarding gate. Don't worry.
It’s a waste of time to look for it when the time comes.”
Although Dianyun Airport all uses internal crossings, it does not mean that you cannot use the terminal building. According to the company’s response from the crew at the No. 2 crossing, the No. 2 crossing is already overcrowded. It is still difficult to pass the security check through the internal No. 2 crossing.
It's better to go to the terminal. Anyway, the terminal also has a dedicated channel for crews, so you don't have to queue like the passengers.
The reason why Qin Zongyang asked Xu Xian and the others to find the boarding gate number in advance is because there are many airports where the seat number is different from the boarding gate number, and of course there are also the same ones.
Since the crew usually walks on the apron, they often use the slot number to identify the location of the aircraft. If you walk from the terminal, you have to go from the boarding gate, and you need to use the boarding number to determine the location of the aircraft.
In the flight assistant software of Star Travel Airlines, there is usually the seat number of the plane, but the boarding number of the plane is not necessarily there. If not, you need to use some other methods.
Of course, you can also look for it on the flight status bulletin board in the terminal, but this is too time-consuming. If the flight crew leaves from the terminal, they usually find out which gate to take in advance.
"Master, is there anything else?" Xu Xian asked. We asked the question clearly and solved it together.
Qin Zongyang leaned on the table and drank tea leisurely: "No, you guys can get busy!"
...
When arriving this time, the vehicle took the crew all the way from the company base to the departure level of the terminal.
After all, flight crews are relatively rare in the terminal. When Xu Xian and the others entered, they still attracted a lot of attention.
The flight crew definitely didn’t need to check in, so they were going to go directly through the check-in counter area to the security check area. However, when a group of crew members were walking through the bustling check-in area, Xu Xian found a group of people talking to the check-in staff.
The uncle and aunt seemed to have noticed them, and immediately came over in a fierce manner.
When the elders and aunties approached the crew, they did not talk to Qin Zongyang, perhaps because of the imposing manner of the leader. Instead, they chose Xu Xian, who was behind him and looked young.
One of the aunts crossed in front of Xu Xian and blocked Xu Xian's way.
The aunt's eyes moved down and saw the boarding pass hanging on Xu Xian's chest. At the bottom of Xu Xian's boarding pass was marked Nanming Dianyun City Star Travel Airlines Co., Ltd.
Auntie's eyes lit up: "From Xingyou?"
Xu Xian didn't know why, but he still nodded: "Yes! What's wrong?"
"We have a problem with the air tickets here, please help!" Without saying anything, the aunt directly grabbed Xu Xian's left arm to prevent Xu Xian from leaving.
"Auntie! I still have something to do. You can go to the information desk of our company and ask!" Xu Xian took a step forward, but the aunt's hand was very strong and she grabbed Xu Xian tightly.
Let Xu Xian go. Xu Xian didn't dare to use too much force, for fear of falling on the aunt, so for a moment, he was somewhat deadlocked.
When the aunt saw that she had stopped Xu Xian, she immediately followed the stick: "Young man, why does your company still charge money for shipping things? I only bought five or six hundred for the air ticket, and the additional shipping fee is four hundred.
, it’s almost more expensive than the air ticket.”
Xu Xian knows something about this situation. This is a common practice in the mid- to low-end market, and almost all low-cost airlines do this.
The loss of low air ticket prices is free checked allowance and in-flight meals. Most low-cost airlines have regulations on free checked allowance, and extra fees are charged for checked excess baggage, and they are not low. At the same time, low-cost airlines basically
In-flight meals are not provided, and most only provide drinking water.
This is a willing exchange. Since you enjoy low fares, you must lose some services. This approach is not new, even the two giant low-cost airlines Blue Sky Airlines and Kunlong Airlines have adopted it.
This route has been implemented for a long time and is considered a quite mature sales model. Logically speaking, anyone who has flown a few times should know this kind of thing.
Even though it was already a matter of the old calendar, Xu Xian still patiently explained quickly: "Auntie, these cheap air tickets are like this. When you buy the air ticket, there should be regulations for checked baggage. If you exceed the stipulated quota,
It requires extra money.”
"But when I bought tickets from other airlines before, I never heard that there would be extra fees for checked goods!" the aunt said reluctantly.
Companies that are not low-cost airlines have very ample baggage allowances, and there is basically no overweight or oversize luggage. The baggage regulations of low-cost airlines are much stricter. Not only are there requirements for baggage weight, but there are also requirements for baggage size. That is,
It is said that even if the luggage is not overweight, if the luggage is too large or exceeds the dimensions, it will still not be checked for free.
Therefore, if you don’t pay attention to your luggage on a low-cost airline, it is easy for your luggage to be oversized and overweight. This is what is lost at the low price.
Xu Xian was speechless for a moment. The sales concept of low-cost airlines is to basically retain the transportation attributes of the aircraft and treat the aircraft as a higher-end bus. There must be some reduction in many additional services. Originally, one penny, one penny
It is not common to split goods and find cheap and good quality products. It is really difficult to want to have cheap air tickets and enjoy all kinds of services without landing them!
At this time, Qin Zongyang, who was in front, noticed Xu Xian who was lagging behind, so he turned back and asked, "What's wrong?"
"They have doubts about the company's luggage regulations," Xu Xian said.
"Luggage regulations? Overweight? How old is this, and there are still people arguing about this?" Qin Zongyang looked at these adults and aunts with an unhappy face, and pointed to the information desk of Star Travel Airlines not far away: "Go there
By the way, we have something else to do!"
After saying that, he told Xu Xian to leave quickly. If he was late on the plane, the company would still pursue him.
Xu Xian was originally worried that if he delayed like this and got on the plane late, he would be fined. However, when Xu Xian was about to leave, the aunt held Xu Xian's arm tightly and refused to let go, and at the same time shouted
: "If I had known that your company was so evil, I wouldn't have bought your airline ticket. Now that we're about to take off, what's the point of asking me for money?"
Xu Xian was helpless: "Auntie, it's useless for you to tell me! I'm flying, not buying tickets! If you tell me, I can't help you either!"
Xu Xian was really troubled by such unreasonable people. Moreover, the terminal was full of people, so Xu Xian couldn't easily fall out in public.
Just when Xu Xian was blackmailed by his aunt, Xu Xian saw that the situation was getting out of control and had to be tough, otherwise things would never end and they would not be able to fly today.
But just when Xu Xian wanted to use some tough tactics, Qin Zongyang came back, grabbed the aunt's wrist and threw it away: "If you do anything again, I will go to the airport police station!"
Qin Zongyang didn't have a good temper, and his eyes as big as copper bells stared, which was actually a bit scary.
Xu Xian saw that his aunt was frightened by Qin Zongyang's momentum. When he lost his mind, he immediately greased the soles of his feet and prepared to run away. Unexpectedly, just after taking a few steps, he heard the aunt's howl from behind: "Star Travel Airlines"
The store is bullying customers, and the pilot even threatened us, it’s lawless!”
