He'll go out with you, but you have to walk behind him and let him direct all aspects of the social outing (but he might actually buy you a beer...the Captain-God-Complex seems to mandate this).

Usually the FA is fat, ghetto, old, and/or very grouchy. At least two of those three. The best of the lot are going to be 55-65 year olds who divorced a doctor, took him for all they were worth, and will continually and subtlety remind you of their mercedes, townhouse dowtown, condo at Aspen, etc, etc.

If you're lucky the FA will be a normal gay male who you can go drinking with. Seriously. If you're not wearing a wedding ring, just b sure to casually mention your live-in girlfriend so there's no misconceptions.

Only exception is SKW. There are some FA's (and female pilots) who are suitable companions for a night out, but mostly in the west.

Best thing to do with your regional overnights is work out and enroll in a online masters degree (or bachelors if you don't have that).

Once you get to a major airline, the CA will be so old that you'll have nothing in common (unless you're both ex-fighter pilots) and he'll just bore you talking about his Porsche, BMW, condo in Aspen, live-in hanger at the airpark, Malibu Meridian, three ex-wives, grandkids, etc.
