At least it's not Air Canada. Some of their flight attendants are getting a wee bit long in the tooth.

Meanwhile, you can buy a Daily Sport or a Daily Sun and see topless women for cheaper.

Just offer free wifi so we can have infinite in-flight porn...

Excuse me stewardess, can I have a blanket?

Some of their Flight Attendants should not be in that calendar.

nursedude: At least it's not Air Canada. Some of their flight attendants are getting a wee bit long in the tooth.

Same with American Airlines. They essentially stopped hiring flight attendants around 2000 or so, and were relying on attrition to thin the ranks. Supposedly they're going to hire 1500 new FAs next year, but we'll see if that happens.

I have a friend who's a flight attendant with AA, and even though she's been with them for thirteen years, she's near the bottom of the list, seniority-wise. Out of something like 13,000 attendants, she's junior to about 12,000 of them.

tl;dr version - there are a lot of aging sky-bunnies who absolutely refuse to quit.

I don't fly often, so perhaps I missed something, but I deal with a lot of flight crews where I work, and all of the female flight attendants all have the same exact look. Was being a flight attendant always the same as being a hooters waitress?

It's creepy as hell seeing 20 of the same person marching around in a row.

//Also, super tall, thin gay dudes.

Ryan air??

FALSE. Ryanair doesn't fly to london. They fly to stansted. Which is fine by me, since I live not too far from Stansted.

And, I just bought return tickets to Rome that cost me a total of 32 pounds, all in. Do I like being treated like a sheeple? Of course not. But I do like tickets to Rome for 32 pounds - quite liteerally just to have a dinner with a fried and back- and not having to drag my butt to heafrow-by-staines, so I manage.

I've flown RyanAir over 100 times in the last 5 years - maybe even 150. I've had a grand total of 3 delayed flights, one of which was due to the volcano. I have no love for the company, but I'd hate for them to be gone. I flew EasyJet to Nice last weekend. it was a better flying experience and in that case cost about the same, though the return flight was late (in that case due to the arrival of the president's falcon jet)

Ryanair flight attendants arent particularly attractive. it's just that if you have so many, as they do, some of them will be decent enough. It's quite funny to watch the evolution of them though - you can tell the new hires by the amount of effort they take to look good. And, unlike the USA, they don't pretend it's a "profession" that deserves "professional respect" or a pension plan. It's not a simple job, but it's not exactly rocket science either.

The one in red, second from the left - Have her ba... er.. bring her to me.

EZ Writer: Just offer free wifi so we can have infinite in-flight porn...

Free?

RyanAir don't offer nuffin' for free.

Only airline I've ever flown that had lottery tickets being hawked up and down the aisle.

(for a 35-pound flight from Stanstead to Tenerife, though, who cares how cheesy and tacky the in-flight promotions and sales are?)

I think I've seen some hotties workin on Ryanair. Aer Lingus, had some fines ones I'd defiantly drop a few euros on an cunning lingus lesson from.

Ah, memories.

/yes, i'm old
//get off my lawn

definitely, rather. makes no sense the other way.

As somebody who has lived close to Ryanair's "Hamburg" airport in Luebeck. I, too, am OK with being treated like cattle when you can get a flight for cheaper than a train ride.

I took advantage of their super discount rates for their new route between Luebeck and Budapest. It was like 20 Euros. Round trip.

He can't be a terrorist, he buys return flights.

It seems as though most countries realize that flight attendants function best as Hooter's Waitresses in the sky, as opposed to the grouchy school marms we get here in America.

Thanks a lot, litigious American society.

That's what I was about to post. Page 3 girls and all.

I have a friend who's a flight attendant with AA, and even though she's been with them for thirteen years, she's near the bottom of the list, seniority-wise. Out of something like 13,000 attendants, she's junior to about 12,000 of them.

tl;dr version - there are a lot of aging sky-bunnies who absolutely refuse to quit.

From this article: "American has about 16,000 flight attendants, at an average age of 51, according to the association." And that's the average age. Damn.

You must work for that airline given how much of an apologist you are for them. Even if you are not, you're part of the problem. Professional respect and benefits are what make for a good airline given that the people working for them have no incentive to backstab - unlike that discount airline you defend. If that airline DIAF's, the world would be much better for its nonexistence.

So? If you want the job done well, you dont do everything to antagonize the staff and customers a la that discount airline that shall not be named.

Charter a farking private plane if you want to join the Mile High Club with a stewardess.

//That and it helps that I have predictable seating and flat fees

Outrageous lies - no airplane bathroom has that much headroom!

I'd sure like to put their seats back in the upright position, if you know what I mean.

They moonlight as Walmart greeters.

Walmart greeters move faster.

Had the pleasure of flying home on Virgin American on a business trip. Flight attendants were well above par for all other airlines. The amenities on the plane weren't bad either.

Yeah, any time you take an over seas flight on American, the flight attendants are all at least 60 years old.

The younger women are working American Eagle, probably for tips.

Aeroflot had some hotties on my flight a few months ago.... including the flight attendants.
