You at least gotta tell the pax about it and give them a chance to get off the plane and go. Take 20 minutes for that. I was on a Mesa RJ 900 once (it was the only option) and I was sitting back by the lav, which was out of service. The plane only had 20 pax but I thought it was kinda rude they didn't mention the lav was inop before the flight (LAS-GEG, 2.5 hrs). I mean, it was a red eye and some of us had a few beers, I'm sure. Anyhow, I asked the FA about it and they said the one up front was working fine. I felt kinda dumb that I hadn't noticed there WAS one up front. |
