I had one FA that ate her crew meal then the second half of the first class goodie tray,(she just assumed that the first class passengers wouldn't notice) then she ate all three of the pilot crew meals. I would like to see her bought out! By the pound she weighed about 350! They need FA buyouts.
Catrancher ? I,ll have to remember that one lol
BTW I have not flown pax for years and did we not at one time have Height / Weight policies?
The good ole days when stews were stews.Oh well enjpy the ride .
you can teach monkeys to fly !

Unfortunately I think those days are long gone...the last flight I took I was unfortunate enough to sit in the aisle and not one of the FAs could get past me without nearly ripping my shoulder from my side

And who can blaim them? We just don't need NWA flight attendant attitudes brought in to the merger and everybody will be better off without it....

Agree 100%; there WILL be layoffs, downsizing and streamlining!

Herk,
Just to show my ignorance...I would guess your "JFK-MXP on Monday" flights are money-making flights. Put in other terms, these European flights are your "bread and butter" flights.
Factor in 10 or so cat-ranchers who fly these flagship flights.
Some are sweating, some are wearing reebok sneakers, some are taking the appetizers off the first-class setups so they can give it to the hotel staff at the layover hotel, most have no problem yelling at any passenger that gets out of line, but have a hard time getting down the aisle without dislocating three people's shoulders, all of them are taking as much airplane booze off the plane for the layover, all of them are complaining how this is the worst flight they've flown in 35 years and doing so loud enough that even the air traffic controllers can hear them, some will get onto the interphone to the cockpit and demand to know how many A/C packs you have turned off because they cant breathe and then when you ask them where your crew meal is they say "Whoops, you dialed the wrong number, try back later".....sound familiar ?
Ahhh, I miss those days.
