Following the news that British Airways is investigating a crew member for soliciting sex work out of its Heathrow staff base, other airlines have come forwards with similar investigations.
EasyJet and Ryanair have joined the UK flag carrier in exposing a number of online accounts using their employment and airline uniform to solicit clients.
Social media accounts claiming to sell underwear and tights of UK air hostesses were uncovered by The Sun, selling items of clothing for over $340. The Instagram account called Cabin Crew Used began selling clothing and illicit images in July.
According to the newspaper the number of flight crew turning to such means to raise extra cash has only grown since the pandemic downturn on travel.
