I just got off a trip where we flew a couple legs in and out of Kennedy with some of the new FAs. What a difference!!!
The passengers loved having young, polite, motivated flight attendants who actually enjoyed their jobs and wanted to be there.
Everyone was smiling and laughing as they deplaned. You could easily tell that the whole mood in the cabin was different than usual.

And they were all definitely red dress qualified.

There's got to be a way to get some of the bitter old fat ones to retire.

There is. Have weight requirements. Besides, just think how much fuel we would save if every overweight FA would lose 50lbs.

For everyone? Not just the F/A's?...I think we'd lose a few pilots too...

One day waiting to deadhead in JFK a cute Comair FA in a red dress walked by, and I heard 3 nasty DAL FA's talking SO MUCH crap on her... "i cannot believe comair is allowed to wear our red dresses" bla bla bla bla bla... it was hilarious.... I was sure to snap a look at those caddy girls.

ps to say once boarding a DAL flight in uniform deadheading, I had 2 FA's welcome me aboard by saying "WOW ive never seen a hot one before"........... classy girls!!!!

Hate to burst your bubble but....they've seen "hot ones" before.

PS I was going through 73NG training this summer and about half of the newhire FA's were gay. It's a good news/bad news situation. But, they are motivated...and we are the official airline of the gay community.
