Flight attendants

[AVanArts]

Yeah, those women we called "Stewardesses" back in the day. Lately, I've taken several trips across the Pacific on EVA Air. The women working on those flights are all young, slender and attractive, like the "Stewardesses" we knew back when flying was still fun. Oh, yeah, EVA is a Taiwan based airline.

Almost makes flying fun again.

Now they have a lot of guys.

"young, slender and attractive" Now that can make a long boring fly a lot more enjoyable with something nice to look at. I flew a lot in my younger days and I really can not remember a rude stewardess. I have seen them take a lot of grief from A hole passengers and just maintain their cool. Lots of stories of really heroic ones who gave all to save us passengers in an emergency..

Now they have a lot of guys.

And they're jerks. My flight coming back from Hawaii I was in a middle seat with some young, bulky asian kid on the aile who promptly put on headphones and eye covers for the 8 hour flight.

Couple hours in and I need to take a leak. Couldn't get the shit to wake up. Male flight attendant came by while I'm practically hammering the kid's shoulder. Mentioned the problem to him and he basically said "that's your problem" and walked off.

Flying sucks more now than ever. You're either cramped in like cattle or you're shelling out double the price for so called first class

Delta and American have a lot of fags and niggers whereas Aeroflot, Finnair, and Iceland Air have the most beautiful, WHITE stewardess I've ever seen.

Fixed it for you

Most but not all, I know a guy who does it part time to get free trips and he's been all over the world.

That sucks, I always get an isle seat even if the people bump onto my shoulder for that same reason.

I have not flown anywhere this century. Sounds like I'm not missing anything.
I once flew under Army orders from Ft. Leonard Wood, Mo., to Washington national and then via taxi to Ft. Belvoir. There were only 3-4 other passengers on board. I flew in uniform as required by orders. A stew sat beside me and we began to chat. I got really, really, lucky. Must have been the service class A greens.

My most favorite airline, back when I was flying overseas, was Air New Zealand. It was like flying used to be. The food and staff were outstanding. Since NZ has gone woke, it's probably not the case anymore. In the USA, regulations have really screwed up the experience. I've heard Air Dubai is the airline to fly on now.

I will rent a car and drive across the country before I'll subject myself to the BS that goes with flying nowadays.
