Flight Attendant Life - Airport Standby + Working An "ODAN" Trip

[@buffy32684]

Kay I love all the music in this vlog, I usually love most of the music in most of your vlogs. Have you ever thought about leaving song titles and artists in the description box? I would love to try to find some of them.

[@KatNesbitt]

I used to do that, but I use so many different songs now even as background songs that it would take a very long time. All of my music though is from Epidemic Sound❤️❤️

Its interesting I worked in Railway/Railroad operations in the UK and the US and its funny how another industries take is on hours of service. In the UK although it was a national railway(at the time)there was only one shift on the entire network that included overnight stays anywhere(we had a hard 12 hour rest in the UK, 8 in the US). In the US we did it more as the rule than the acceptation, even though it was a regional operator and smaller than BR in the UK. Your ODAN's sound very much like a split-shift. The hardest shift of me in the UK(I did the same shift for 10 years in the US!)was we would do a week of PMs and then a week of AMs so on "Saturday night" you would often finish at 2am Sunday morning, with Sunday "off" with a 4.30am start Monday morning, I found fitting 2 nights sleep into 26hrs imposable

[@adriennedull332]

I love watching you, because you are always positive even when things may not be going great. Thank you for what you do, the job ain’t easy. Much love..❤️

[@sjwecks]

Fascinating explanation of ODANs!

[@explorewithefrain7305]

I also have Airport Standby at 3 O’ Clock ⏰ today! Plus, I am on call 10-10 tomorrow as well!

[@rocfela]

Kat, love the videos. As a someone who works nights and swing shifts, usually in the same week the hack to short sleep intervals is to either sleep 20 minutes or multiples of 90 minutes so you wake up at the end of REM sleep and not in the middle of deep sleep. Hope this helps on your next ODAN!

[@resellersdictionary5616]

It's so funny how weather is so relative to where you're from. It was real feel of 19 degrees here in Boston this morning and I only had a hoodie on. My car had been warming up prior and I immediately had to shut heat off and crack the windows. There were quite a few kids wearing shorts when I dropped my kids off at the high school. It's now real feel of 31 and I honestly feel warm. So 40 degrees in the winter for us is T shirt weather. However on the flip side we are weak babies to the heat. Once it hits 70, the ACs are running nonstop. A day in the high 80s and we are completely melting. We do get 90 degree days but it's like earth is on fire and everyone is complaining. I always say I'm not sure how ppl in Texas can handle that heat b/c one day I heard on the news something like "Texas is finally get relief from the heat wave . Temps will be cooler in the 88-91" If 88 is a cooler summer day, I'd be in trouble there.

Going on your airline a week from Monday and taking my favorite plane, the A321T.

[@Abercrombie432]

This is so interesting to learn about ODAN/rockets because at my airline, we call it lean and redeyes! I’m not a fan of working them either unless they are international or Hawaii 😊

[@loretta_3843]

Lord! It's daylight well past 7pm here so I guess your winter has truly started. I'm not looking forward to full summer (in Melbourne, the hottest time is usually towards the end of summer) I can't stand the heat, 35°C+ is bad, 40°C+ is where I wouldn't say no to a coma.. I'm not joking 😳

[@NewMeNatalie]

Oh goodness I was exhausted for you! I heard the shakiness in your voice when you got to your hotel. It sounds like it was just a very stressful day experience. I’m glad you made it through and made it back to DFW safely. And I hope that sleep was extra sweet once you got home. ❤️

[@josephineahelle5094]

Hi Kat, Another great vlogg. Just one question, would it have been better to just stay up on that ODAN? 😍

[@sixtysecondvlog]

hi Kat, ODAN's sound absolutely exhausting.. You are a trooper, Kat. Glad you got home early the next day though. Hope you, Chip and the fur babies had a good thanksgiving yesterday! xxx

[@Mississippibabb81]

When I was a flight attendant we called an "ODAN" a high-speed. I liked them bc scheduling could not extend you. 3 high-speed in a row and done.

[@KatNesbitt]

That’s still true on the extending! High speed sounds a lot cooler lol

[@zoebells767]

I love them too solely because I can’t be extended ! You’re pretty much guaranteed the entire day off when you return

[@angelicamarie3771]

I'm flying my first ODAN in march as a guest, from SFO-MCO, maybe I'll see Ale. I'm going to Disneyworld with my little sister for her graduation.

[@loretta_3843]

Question! Because an ODANS is considered one duty day, do you get anything for meals as you would on a usual layover or I guess no because they say so? With my luck, if I had 5 extra minutes and sat down, I would have gone straight back to sleep!

[@KeemBeckford]

I wouldn’t like ODAN’s either to be honest . But you handle it so well . ❤️❤️

ODAN - Ohcrap Damn i Am Nocturnal

[@KatNesbitt]

FACTS! 😂❤️

[@kennethfeld6639]

@@KatNesbitt I was SHOCKED when I found out how senior the ODANS typically are. UA runs them from ORD-CHS a lot in the late fall early spring and I usually take the early flight out, so I see the after. :) I always board first and talk to the FA and the resounding response is “I can tuck my kids in to sleep and I often get home in time to see them before they go to school”. I had never thought of it that way - plus it is a ton of hours, so I can see the benefits - but there are drawbacks as well - you just have to power thru those. LOL

[@kennethfeld6639]

Hmm, now i watched the rest of the video and see you explained the kids thing….still kind of took me by surprise how popular those trips are among senior FA.

I remember one Thanksgiving, my first flying one, my roommate lived in base, I didn’t ! We went to her Moms for dinner and it tasted like my Moms ! I cried and still to this day, 43 years later I still thank her Mom! !! So glad I don’t have to bid anymore ! I still dream I am flying all the time ! Some times good, sometimes not so good ! Boy, things have changed soooooo much ! You just have to have a good attitude! Seems like you do 🥰! Just listening to you, makes me miss all the people I flew with ! 🙃! You guys are so young ! My husband was a Captain and Check Pilot ! We have known each other for 43 years this year ! We met at the airline ! But we were married to different people ! I got divorced His girl sadly died We did not see each other for years ! Then we flew a trip to LAX, a 2 day in March 1986 and when we had breakfast, planned out the next 5 months of our life 😱😱😱💕💕💕! Then in 1992 we got married Been living in Cle and our beautiful home for 29 years ! 😱 Where did the years go? You enjoy your days and take tons of pictures ! Enjoy ! Now I know what I sounded like for years through you ! We called over nighter’s something different, but the Same shit show ! You enjoy all time now, before you know it, you will have a line and not be reserve and loving life ! 😍😍😍 Odan sounds funny ! They went so Sr in my days 🙃🙃🙃 You take care and enjoy your flying wherever it takes you ! Live in the moment and save for the future ! Merry Christmas and fly safe ! Try to enjoy your 4 days, I hated them too! But try to learn something that you didn’t know, on one of your RON’s ! Take care sweetie ! 😍 God Bless 🙏🏼
