It sounds a bit ridiculous but flight attendants typically aren’t paid while passengers board planes.
However, that’s about to change for Delta Air Lines, considered to be the best US airline. Continue reading Delta To Pay Flight Attendants During Boarding
Most airlines are getting a lot more strict when it comes to passengers wearing face masks. American Airlines banned a passenger who refused to wear a face mask and other airlines could do the same if a passenger does not comply.
One airline plans to stop flight attendants from wearing face masks for a really stupid reason… Continue reading STUPID-Airline Plans To Stop Flight Attendants From Wearing Face Masks
This is one of the most awful reasons I’ve ever heard of passengers being kicked off of a plane for.
A couple of sisters were on a flight with Allegiant Air. They were flying from Asheville, North Carolina to Sanford, Florida to see their father who was in hospice care. Continue reading Sisters Kicked Off Allegiant Air Flight, Miss Final Goodbye to Dying Dad
An angry passenger decided to throw water on a couple of flight attendants during a flight and ended up being put in jail.
When I saw the headline for this story it immediately made me wonder what a FA could do to cause somebody to react by throwing water! Continue reading Passenger Throws Water on Flight Attendants
Flights have been diverted and have had to make emergency landings for a variety of reasons.
I just came across an article about one of the strangest (and most unprofessional) reasons that a Delta flight had to land. Continue reading Delta Flight Attendants Fight, Plane Makes Unscheduled Landing
A man has been charged by the FBI for punching a flight attendant and threatening to blow up a plane, according to CBS New York.
There aren’t many details of what happened but I was surprised to not read anything about the flight being diverted due to the incident. Continue reading Man Punches FA, Threatens To Blow Up Plane During JetBlue Flight
Unless we’re flying in premium cabins like business or first class, it’s highly unlikley that flight attendants will know our names or much else about us. (However, flight attendants do ask you to stop doing this…)
However, Delta Airlines says that they would like to change this and “Bring humanity back“.
With the help of technology, “flight attendant tech brings personalization to the sky“. I found out about this new technology in a press release that I received from Delta and I was definitely curious to find out more… Continue reading Delta “Bringing Humanity Back” To Flights?
It isn’t easy being a flight attendant.
From making sure everyone gets seated in time for take-off, figuring out the puzzle of the overhead bins, meal-service and making sure that we’re safe, there’s definitely a lot of responsibility involved.
While the job of a FA sounds way too stressful to me in some ways, there are some things that we could all do to help make their jobs a bit easier. Continue reading Flight Attendants Ask You To Stop Doing This
Yesterday I wrote about a family booted off a JetBlue flight.
At the time of writing, the story was based on the account of the family. The flight attendants involved and airline did not make any comments.
This certainly makes for a one-sided story and it would’ve been nice to hear the flight attendant’s version too. Continue reading JetBlue Responds To Family Booted Off Flight
A family claims to have been unfairly kicked off of a JetBlue flight earlier this week according to an article from Yahoo Parenting (which Kim sent my way).
According to what was written, it appears that the reason the family got the boot was due to questioning the flight attendants and also responding in an irritated manner.
Overall, based on what I read in the article, these things wouldn’t seem to be an appropriate reason to turn a plane back to the gate and kick a family off of a flight. Continue reading Family Booted Off JetBlue Flight
