The (nauseating) confessions of flight attendants – including ‘crop dusting’ problem passengers

Flight attendants keep passengers safe and ensure vacationers are fed and watered, but sometimes the veil of professionalism falls away.

A number of cabin crew members have admitted to taking revenge on passengers who have belittled them or simply annoying those who haven’t – and some claim they have a special way of ‘attacking’ pilots they like.

Some confessions came to light through an anonymous person Reddit thread called ‘flight attendant confessions’, in which airline workers gave an unedited insight into their lives at 35,000 feet.

One crew member, ‘elaxation’, admitted making flights unpleasant for holidaymakers even though they had done nothing wrong.

The flight attendant noted, “Every time I have to refuel, I walk down the aisle and ‘pick off’ the passengers. Passengers are the enemy.’

Another flight attendant on the forum decided to take revenge after a passenger refused to put away his vape during the flight.

Although e-cigarettes and vapes are allowed to be carried into the aircraft cabin, by law they cannot be charged or used at any time.

The crew member explained, “I once had a passenger in the last row of this particular plane who kept putting his vape on the tray after being repeatedly told not to bring it out and warned that he would be written up if he continued to do so.” to go. .

“I think after the fourth time he tried to just stick it under his thigh or something.

“Well, at one point he fell between the seats and the aisle seat of the last row of this plane sticks out so I can see from my galley below the row. So I just knelt behind the row, swiped my hand under his seat to get the vape, then turned around and threw it in the trash!”

They added: ‘It was great to see him clambering around looking for his vape when he got out. Finally he walked away in a rage.’

It wasn’t just taking revenge on passengers, as flight attendants admitted.

One crew member claimed they used a cheeky technique to signal to the pilots flying the plane that they liked them.

The anonymous cabin crew said: ‘Every time I want to attack one of the pilots, I deliberately don’t press the reset button for attention.’

Explaining what this means for people on the ground, they added: ‘Anytime you contact a pilot or other flight attendant on the phone during your flight, they can basically hear the rest of your conversation after you hung up if you don’t hang up. press the reset button.’

That means if they liked the captain, they just let them listen. We wonder what they talk about when they know they’re being tapped…
