As a flight attendant I love my Boston layovers. Especially when I get 30 hours there. I’m from the area and always enjoy going “home.” My most recent visit was special because my mom was able to join me at the hotel for a sleepover on the second night. Although, when I arrived at the […]

Q:”I would like to be a flight attendant when I’m older. But the thing is, I am male, but I’m not gay. I don’t want people to think I’m gay working as a flight attendant. So my question is, how many straight male flight attendants do you work with?” A: I work with many straight […]

My daughters first flight happened at three weeks old. Not because I’m crazy, but because I didn’t know any better! Traveling with kids that young is probably not the best idea.

I lucked out this year and got a great schedule for December. So great that to hold the schedule I got you’d normally have to be flying about thirty years to get anything like it. How did I get it then, you ask? I bid what is called a vacation relief line. A vacation relief […]

As a final step in training, I had to complete my line indoctrination. For those of you who don’t know, a line indoc is a government requirement for any flight attendant trainee before they can receive their competency card and operate a flight. Usually what happens is the airline will put 2 or 3 FA […]

December has been a busy month for me! We finished up our last TV appearance of the month in Pheonix on ABC’s Smart Family. We had such a great time on the show and actually stayed an extra night thanks to Hotel Valley Ho! And, speaking of Hotel Valley Ho today is the last day […]
