This is 100% correct. The idea of people using aircraft as projectiles at the time wasn’t a common thought. Usually it was “take us to Cuba and give me $1 million dollars and no one gets hurt”. This changed the entire train of thought with how hijackings are treated.

Nylon isn’t flammable. Airline uniforms for FA must be fire retardant.

Don’t be a creep towards the FA. Most of them have boyfriends. Don’t dip your pen in the company Ink either. It’s not worth it. But i will say, What you do outside of a trip and not on a overnight is your business.

Treat them as a crew member and not the butler. They have a job to do too. The middle of boarding isn’t the right time to ask for snacks and a water. Get what you want when everyone is settled or beforehand.

Treat them as you’d treat another pilot, yes they have a stereotype of being young and dumb. A lot of them have more education than pilots. I’ve flown with people that have a Phd’s in math.

At my company, at a certain southern base, ive been told 1968 hires won’t crack the top 25. My wife’s airline has some 1950s hires. BN employee number it’s literally “1” at AA. She works 3 days a week, drives a Benz and just one turn a day. Supposedly she hasnt overnighted since 2002.
