Gatwick Airport is the busiest single runway airport in the world, and the second busiest airport in Britain. Situated in Crawley, just south of London, it is London’s second largest airport. This airport has lots of shops – in fact there are so many shopping opportunities here that you might well think you’re in a […]

What does eating smart have to do with a luggage scale? I’m not sure, but my mom did pack some groceries in her suitcase last week.  Why would anyone pack food in their luggage? In her defense she had just gone food shopping when I asked her to fly in for emergency baby sitting duties […]

Hi Flying Pinto, I would like to start a room for stewardesses/Stewards laying over in my home and I’m wondering what a stewardess would look for in a home other than your own bathroom, bedroom, cable, Internet and delicious meals. Would laundry done be good? Transportation to and from the airport? I’d like to be […]

Jaunted recently ran an article “How $20 can turn you into a flight attendant’s favorite passenger” Last night I recorded an episode on The Crew Lounge and we discussed the article and the benefit of bringing gifts while flying and whether or not it makes you the flight attendant’s favorite passenger.

You race through nylons like nobody’s business, because your job demands them. And after a grueling day, the choice between pounding the pavement for new nylons and […]

I dead headed to my thirty hour layover in Edmonton Canada this week. What is dead heading? Deadheading is the transport of a flight attendant for the purpose of covering a trip. In other words, I flew as a passenger because I was needed to work the flight back. I love being a deadheading flight […]

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 […]

“”See honey…this is why you need to do well in school. You don’t want to end up like her.” This is what a flight attendant overheard a passenger saying to her young daughter while she was picking up trash. I asked the flight attendant what her response was and she said she chose not to […]
