Awesome video! This is what I want to be when I grow up, a flight attendant. All of the scenarios you deal with you’re so calm and it’s amazing! It’s helpful sometimes if this happens bc you get to read and relax. Obviously it can be difficult but you deal with it in a good way! Can’t wait for next vlog!!

[@stephaniesagide839]

Hey Julia! Thank you for the reminder (as a passenger) about delays/cancellations. I am definitely not one to be patient when that happens, but I always try to treat airline staff with respect even so! As for books, I’m in your book club and currently reading When the Moon Hatched! Also on the second book in TOG series.

[@JettingJulia]

Hi Stephanie!! Thank you for always treating the staff with respect, these days are hard on ALL of us. I’m so happy you’re part of my bookclub, thank you you for being here 🩵 I am LOVING when the moon hatched 🌙 & ENJOY TOG - that series has my hesrt and soul. I think about the characters daily no joke.

I feel ya, Julia. My second week off flying I as scheduled to work Norfolk to Chicago then to New York with a 1pm departure. This was may1988 and the plane was a 727-100, old plane. Chicago had weather so we were on a ground hold in Norfolk. it was originally supposed to be a 45 minute hold. 3 hours later we took of and held in the air for 1 1/2 hours and then diverted to Detroit. All the gates in Detroit were full of other aircraft so we sat on the ramp for2 more hours. We rsn out of all bevarges and the lavs were full. After some intense words to Flt ops, the Captain was able to get some sodas, water and the laves serviced, but no gate. Eventually, we got to Chicago around 2:30 am. Our 14 hour duty day was so busted and because of everything the only hotel they had was an obscure little hotel an hour away from O'Hare. The cab driver wanted me to go into s bar in uniform to ask directions. i told him i couldn't do that. Besides, i knew the second I got out of the cab the driver would take off and leave me.

[@petepappas4313]

How things have changed since I first started flying. We were the last training class for TWA in 1966. I left for training in Kansas City on Christmas Day. I flew commercial, travel club, charter, and corporate. Corporate was by far the best and most interesting. Appreciate your reading tips. You might enjoy the Australian author, Belinda, Alexandra. I enjoy your videos but, it’s a completely different world. I have a friend who still flies, and she said the bidding process is so complicated. We used to bid by paper. We flew with the same crew, cockpit and cabin, for the entire month and we had to share a hotel room with one of our fellow stewardesses.

[@donnajohansson4105]

So many storms happening in the USA! Stay safe! Luna is such a cutie❤

[@sjm18pars]

Seeing you stuck in the middle seat made me chuckle. Even a professional working FA can't avoid it.

[@Tyleraviator99]

It is within a 20miles radius if I remember correctly with lightning

[@ethanmcdowell9677]

At least you didn't have to divert and the crew time out. I saw that happen dozens of times when I was at KIND.

[@dreamershavemorefun]

Recently I picked up Joan Didion’s Let Me Tell You What I Mean ( she’s one of my favourite authors) that’s in the pipeline. I’m currently reading Laura Raicovich’s Culture Strike : Art and Museums in the Age of Protest; I highly recommend it as a look behind the operations of several museums. On the Fiction Front I just read Swimming in the Dark by Tomasz Jedrowski which broke my heart and shattered my psyche for several days after reading ( it’s the Polish Call me by your Name). Recently I finished A Certain Hunger; Chelsea G. Summers debut; I didn’t love it but it’s a fun campy read for those of us who enjoy a bit of murder with a side of gourmet food experiences.

[@adamgenez]

I was gonna suggest that you get a full-length tripod! Glad you managed to find one!

[@melanieperiard5696]

Hi, well, my sweet Luna (goldendoodle) decided to jump last year in my backyard. She was 18 months old at the time and in cost us 8,000 because she needed surgery for one of the legs that had a double fracture. She made a full recovery ❤

[@milesgauntt5354]

I love you the videos. I am very tired of flight attendant from American Airlines just a few years back. It’s a crazy world out there now from when I started anyways I wish you the best of luck with the rest of your career and enjoy it. I certainly hope that you are safe and take care of yourself.

Of all the airports I have landed at ORD is the my least liked

[@PeterLoutan]

What u did to pop your ears on the flight

[@4thetruthjc4ever37]

Hi Julia, do you get the same pay while on reserve? And when you dead head do you get paid for that time as well?

[@JettingJulia]

On reserve I’m guaranteed 75 hours of pay (for the month) whether I fly or not! So deadheading is included in that 75 hours

[@4thetruthjc4ever37]

@@JettingJulia That's awesome, is it your choice to be on reserve status? Or does the airline pick you for that? Do you like a regular schedule or the reserve schedule better?

[@Deckervlogs]

do you still get paid when you were unable to fly any of those flights and they just made you deadhead?

[@stephenmaher1029]

Do you get paid extra if the call you at the last minute or is it just hurry up and get dressed and get to the airport asap?🤗

[@JettingJulia]

Just gotta hurry up and get there! lol. We have a two hour call out though, so you are not required to be at the airport until 2 hours after crew scheduling called you

I had a similar thing happen on a flight from Toronto to Chicago. The plane sat on the tarmac in Toronto for over 90 minutes. We took off for Chicago, then because of thunderstorms, we diverted to Madison, Wisconsin for fuel. Then we sat there for a while to wait for a slot in the landing pattern for Chicago. Needless to say, a regular 2 hour flight ended up take 5 hours. Such is the life of the business traveller.

[@Natalies_Page_Turners]

Luna is beauty and brains! ❤ I’m so glad the passengers treated everyone with kindness. While it’s frustrating to not be able to get to where you need to go, realizing what is out of your control and working with you instead of against you really makes things bearable for everyone. I’m glad that part was a good experience for you!

Sounds like you had a big reserve trip to nowhere. That would be my kind of trip if I did it for a living. Beautiful Luna melts my heart every time I see her!❤️✈️

@@JettingJulia - Here's a suggestion to go along with the VPN: Pick up a T-Mobil 5G MiFi hotspot to create your own private internet wherever T-Mobile has a signal. Can easily be locked down so only you have access, plus it comes with unlimited and unthrottled data, and for only $50/month! You know how spotty hotel wifi can be, this little hotspot is a great solution. (You can get this hotspot "stand alone," meaning you don't have to have T-mobile phones to qualify.) As always, Cheers from GEG ❣

3 mile radius for lightning on the ramp and everyone has to get indoors. 10 mile radius limits some aspects of operation.

Julia, the year was 1983, flight FRA-DFW. The flight was about 11 hours. Landed at DFW after several hours of storms. There were about 120 planes on the ground with no place to go. There were no procedures for this situation at the time. We have yet to get a gate for 12 and one-half hours. Yes,. 12.n5 hours. There was not one piece of ice or drop of anything to drink. Please don't worry if this happens. The good news was that after about 6 to 7 hours, the passengers were mentally and physically exhausted. They no longer spoke or moved. So, it is possible that passengers can become so tortured by events they just surrender. YOU WON. Sort of. All of us, the cabin and cockpit crew, were in equally bad shape. Hello to Eric. I am just beginning my 11th year of retirement. Keep working hard. I look forward to my retirement check on the first day of each month. 💲💵

[@cherifbar]

The radius is fifty nautical miles or approximately or 93 Kilometres. As they say, it is far better to be on the ground wishing you were in the air than in the air wishing you were on the ground. If an obnoxious passenger tries to give you some grief, remind them of that.

[@nicktucker3437]

delays are a far better option than accidents.

Your first trip scheduled after knee surgery was a four day extravaganza, and now your first time back on reserve results in a weatherpalooza delay. Wonder what other post-surgery firsts are in the offing.😲

[@JettingJulia]

I’m trying to understand if this is an insult to me or not? Like are yall making fun of me for saying I’m exhausted or is this in good fun? People complain that I say I’m exhausted.. but this IS an exhausting job. I don’t sugar coat it and I don’t lie about it. 🙃 it was 2 am when I said I was exhausted which is understandable lol On another note thank you to you and your friends for watching!

​@@JettingJulia I agree 💯 percent, Julia. I am NOT even slightly interested in self-help books etc. My opinion is they foster being absorbed with self, being self-centered, rather than focusing on others and moving forward in life.
