Some FA’s are genuinely bat**** crazy and vindictive. We had a pilot in that exact scenario. One drink at hotel bar, went back to his room alone. A week later gets called to HR accused of rape. FA hooked up with some rando in the hotel and for reasons unknown, falsely accused the pilot. He eventually got his job back, but went through some serious hell before he was exonerated. It’s just not worth the risk, no matter how well you “think” you know someone.

I won’t set foot into an elevator alone with a female. Nor do I ever sit or stand next to one on public transit or engage in any conversation. It may seem a tad extreme, but I’m naturally extremely introverted and avoiding unnecessary chatter with strangers suits me just fine anyway. No I don’t sit there in stony silence ignoring the first officer I’m flying with. I do have the ability to work with others. 😃
