Flight Attendant Gretchen

We all have questions about flying.

Why do the airlines and flight attendants do what they do? How hard is it to get a flight attendant job? How much training do they have? What’s the worst airline/airport? And why don’t we get pillows anymore?!

Answers to these questions (and many more) as working flight attendant Gretchen (not her real name) takes a break from the air and sits in at the studio.

She talks about how she got into the business, the effects of 9-11, and where the industry is headed.

She also fields questions from listeners like a champ!

Thanks Gretchen! Glad to know you’ve got our backs (and our snack mix) in the air!
