You sound like you’re from London

I hope I’ll never stop being in awe of this job. Crew scheduling blessed me with another trip to London. I was called from standby so I had no idea until 50 minutes before scheduled departure. When we got there, two other crew members and I decided to just hit the ground running and head […]

Sea-ya-ttle

My first time in the Pacific Northwest was one for the books. I had just worked a four-day with two fellow new hires and we all ended up on the same Seattle trip. In the airline industry, it’s very common to click super well with your coworkers.. and then never see them again. Lucky for […]

On island time

One of the perks of being a Miami based flight attendant, quite simply, is the proximity to the Caribbean and the layovers we have there. Of course other bases fly to some islands and Mexico and other tropical destinations. But Miami really is “Gateway to the Tropics” like some FAs like to say. This month […]

Back home in Beautiful Nebraska

Nebraska has a special place in my heart. In recent years, I’ve been able to make amazing memories there, nearly all stemming from my friends in Lincoln. I met Bill and Katie while living in Wyoming.

My love letter to New York

Just touched down in London town

It finally happened! I was blessed with my first international trip and man was it a doozy. I reported to JFK for standby, which meant I already had a chance at an international flight since that’s where they depart from. I reported at 1 p.m. and waited. And waited. And waited, listening to all these […]

Local Tucson lunch spot

One of the promises I made to myself when making this career change is that I was going to continue to be creative. I loved that about my last job. So with this new career, I said I was going to continue to write and document and share my travel experiences. So where we go! […]
