And certainly I wouldn't even want a flight attendant who openly embraces putting evil woke politics ahead of passenger safety. Especially a flight attendant who goes so far as to mock passengers who prefer safety over identity. So no thank you!

    • A family member was going through a very rough time a few years back, and is also mildly claustrophobic. He's never been a nervous flyer, though, and in fact holds a pilot's license. Anyway, it all came to a head and he ended up suffering a full-blown anxiety attack on a plane as it was taxiing for takeoff. He jumped out of his seat and bolted for the door. A flight attendant immediately recognized the situation and knew that ordering him back to his seat would do no good; he was in fight-or-flight mode. Instead, she allowed him to remain in the galley where he had some space, and calmly talked him through some breathing exercises until he was able to return to his seat. The flight was not delayed. He was able to make it through the flight without further incident (she checked on him often) and has been able to tame his anxiety with some ongoing work. We're both very grateful for this superb flight attendant who, using a little training and a whole lot of empathy, was able to so gracefully handle a humiliating and potentially dangerous situation.

  • 30 yr FA for AA. I was the Purser (Inflight manager) on an overnight flight to LHR. Got a call that 2 passengers had snuck into the back restroom. We listened at the door & quickly knew what they were engaged in. We grabbed a piece of paper & made a “Welcome to the mile high club” certificate & about six of the crew all gathered around the lavatory door waiting patiently. The door unlocked and the young lady stepped out. The crew whooped and cheered stating loudly “Welcome to Mile the Club”! Loud enough the entire back of Economy class all turned to see what was going on. The cheering continued until the male came out & the both of them slinking back to their seats in very bright shades of red. We must always be in constant supervision of the cabin & lavs so the chance of not getting caught will be slim to none.

  • The crash she is referring to is that of Birgenair Flight 301 which occurred on the 7th of February 1996 and was the joint-deadliest aviation incident involving a Boeing 757 (along with American Airlines Flight 77) having a total of 189 fatalities. Furthermore, Flight 301 is the deadliest aviation accident ever to have occurred in the Dominican Republic. It was caused by erroneous airspeed readings. There was evidence that some of the recovered bodies had been 'mangled' by sharks and life rafts were found floating in the area. But obviously no one knows how many of them had survived and were subsequently eaten or attacked by the sharks. "All 189 people on board a Boeing 757 charter plane - most of them German tourists heading home from two weeks of tropical sunshine - were killed yesterday when their aircraft crashed into the Caribbean minutes after taking off from Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic." "US Coast Guard vessels joined the rescue effort before dawn yesterday. Officers said they and the Dominican navy had picked up 40 bodies by afternoon, some of them injured by sharks. Dominican officials said there was little hope that anyone survived. The Coast Guard said schools of circling sharks made it too dangerous to use divers. The aircraft apparently sank quickly but reports of empty life rafts floating among the debris suggested some passengers may have escaped from the wreckage, only to be blown towards the sharks by stormy winds and eight foot waves."

I dumped him but had to stay in the booked apartment with him for the whole week 🤦🏻‍♀️. And some men wonder why we still feel a bit picked on and singled out.

  • Only one thing I know not true for many airlines (according to VPs who make the rules not just not cabin crew like this lady): upgrades will go to commercial passengers first not standby staff - especially if they have rewards members, they want frequent flyers to a) have a really good experience and spread the word that the rewards schemes are worth it and b) let frequent flyers experience the higher cabins so they get a taste for it and might book it next time. Emirates always upgrades skywards members when they can. Dressing smart and being nice (not demanding) is a must though.

    @1physics@1physics12 күн бұрын
    • From personal experience, it's actually the pilots who decide who gets what seat! At least with the airlines I've travelled on. It's the Captain's decision at the end of the day - he decides who gets what upgrade/seat depending on who's listed to fly. Companies obviously want to publicise the fact that they prioritise their frequent fliers (to incentivise people to buy), but staff travel actually comes first most of the time. Emirates might be different, but the UK airlines I'm familiar with prioritise staff travel (especially if the passenger is travelling with a crew member).

  • One thing she said that is wrong, statistically if you look at historical data on crashes, the further back in the plane you sit the more likely you are to survive in a crash. The seats over the wings are less effected by turbulence, but sitting closest to the huge wings full of fuel isn't ideal for survivability during a crash.

  • 13:20 airplane mode. She's right on most things, but wrong on this one. The ILS beacon is in a different frequency range. There are international laws and agreements on what frequency bands are used by telecom and other users, specifically to prevent what she's claiming. It does, however, quickly drain your battery because your phone keeps trying to connect to cell towers that aren't there. If something so dramatic as losing an ILS signal could happen, phones would be permanently banned on board.

    • It's to avoid the fairly small risk of interference with any of the airplanes electronics. If they did not insist on flight mode the airplane electronics would have to be designed, tested and regularly re-certified compatible with full strength mobile/cellular phone signals. Some commercial planes flying today were built before cell phones even existed.

  • The statistics say over 80% of people survive aviation accidents but that statistic does not specify accidents into categories like only including those that were a total hull loss vs things like a bird strike, uncontained fan failures, fuel exhausted, etc. where there was repairable damage and maybe some nail biting moments but still finished with a runway landing. Even a total hull loss has had large numbers of survivors such as US Airways ditching in the Hudson river in NY where everyone survived with only a few minor injuries even though the aircraft was a write-off.

  • I’ve been a pilot since 1994. Mobile phones do NOT affect anything. The old phones in the 90’s actually did, but not on phones made after 1996. It’s stupid. When I’m flying my own plane, I never turn the phone to airplane mode. Talk to pilots - 90%+ will tell you the same thing, but get the government involved, laws are almost never changed once they’re past

Somebody once told her that people are told to adopt the brace position as your neck will snap quicker if the plane crashes. What creeps me out about that is that somebody said that to her as a child. She used to fly a lot as an ‘un accompanied minor’ with her dad working all over the world on civil engineering projects.

Two took turns doing CPR. We were diverted to land quickly and they got the guy off and said he was receiving "proper medical care" and thanked the flight crew and those that helped. The pilot can say all he wants, but when you do CPR for a long time it means the guys is dead or will be soon.

The closest I've come is ALM Flight 980 which crashed in shark-infested waters, but no source claims that any of the 23 fatalities were shark-related. I would be interested if anyone else could provide information, because that sounds wild to me. Further, the airplane mode claim has been debunked so many times it's almost getting boring. I'm sure she's told so many passengers by now that she truly believes it. I suppose it's not harming anybody.

    • The crash she is referring to is that of Birgenair Flight 301 which occurred on the 7th of February 1996 and was the joint-deadliest aviation incident involving a Boeing 757 (along with American Airlines Flight 77) having a total of 189 fatalities. Furthermore, Flight 301 is the deadliest aviation accident ever to have occurred in the Dominican Republic. It was caused by erroneous airspeed readings. There was evidence that some of the recovered bodies had been 'mangled' by sharks and life rafts were found floating in the area. But obviously no one knows how many of them had survived and were subsequently eaten or attacked by the sharks. "All 189 people on board a Boeing 757 charter plane - most of them German tourists heading home from two weeks of tropical sunshine - were killed yesterday when their aircraft crashed into the Caribbean minutes after taking off from Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic." "US Coast Guard vessels joined the rescue effort before dawn yesterday. Officers said they and the Dominican navy had picked up 40 bodies by afternoon, some of them injured by sharks. Dominican officials said there was little hope that anyone survived. The Coast Guard said schools of circling sharks made it too dangerous to use divers. The aircraft apparently sank quickly but reports of empty life rafts floating among the debris suggested some passengers may have escaped from the wreckage, only to be blown towards the sharks by stormy winds and eight foot waves."

I only say *possibly* because the incident you mention was not a controlled emergency landing on water (aka a water ditching) but an uncontrolled crash due to malfunction with the plane. Also, there was evidence of shark predation on some bodies but not surviving passengers being attacked by sharks as is claimed. It seems that this flight attendant is possibly confusing/conflating various incidents so it's difficult to know for sure.
