Click here for the whole ugly story, which includes these details:

The flight attendant involved had apparently only flown four flights with BA when she was found in a drunken stupor on the beach. An investigation by the hotel revealed … that other crew had been giving her drinks.

[…]

In 2019, three cabin crew faced disciplinary proceedings after drunk hijinks at a layover hotel in Singapore. A fellow crew member reported them to management after they were seen sprinting naked along the hotel corridors.

[…]

British Airways was also forced to find a new crew hotel in Nairobi, Kenya after drunken crew members allegedly caused damage in the hotel’s lobby.

Not joking, my first thought on seeing this article was “Have they ever seen U.S. Air Force fighter pilots on deployment?” Then, again not joking, “Have they ever seen Hash House Harriers at on-afters?” Then (ditto), “Have they ever been around college students?”

Finally I realized the article isn’t really about British Airway crews, or any other group. It’s about what happens when you add alcohol to groups. Christ, if I could live life over again, I’d never touch a drop.
