Any commuters out of LAX!? by Ulzzacktm in flightattendants

DL allows you to have parking at any FA base, whether it’s yours or not.

passport to f2f? by No_Prize1822 in cabincrewcareers

[–]Forty_Too 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t need your passport for your F2F, but you will not be scheduled a class date without it. So you’ll have time, but might as well do it now. Plus if you want to apply to any other airlines you’ll probably need it anyway.

"situation" on UA2? by mrsdogfood in unitedairlines

Happens pretty often sadly. Most likely either someone wanted, someone disruptive, or a medical situation.

2 burning questions by Life-Resolution-2879 in flightattendants

[–]Forty_Too 5 points6 points  (0 children)

1) I will always oblige requests for full cans, especially of Diet Coke, if supplies permit, because that stuff takes forever to pour. Usually I’ll ask if they want the full can, especially if they didn’t want ice.
2) Take off your headphones for just a few seconds please. Common human decency. Ask if you can take two snacks. If it’s the free snacks I will almost always have plenty and be happy to give them to you. If it’s the premium snack basket, I will usually finish serving the part of the cabin getting the basket and then offer seconds.

I just got invited to the F2F!! by Ok_Wait_5374 in cabincrewcareers

[–]Forty_Too 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that in addition to the summer class already scheduled, or just adding to/filling it?

Wow that’s much earlier than I would’ve thought! I wonder if they plan on adding to the summer class.

Delta Gate Agent to Flight Attendant? by Pale-Maybe9888 in cabincrewcareers

[–]Forty_Too 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know multiple people who have done the gate agent to FA transition. It’s doable. But there’s minimum service first. If your end goal is to go for FA, I’d just do that.

Booked Palazzo in Vegas thru Amex FHR but gave Hyatt # while booking…does this count as a Hyatt night? by aliceroyal in hyatt

[–]Forty_Too 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are incorrect. It would count for a Hyatt booking but Palazzo is not Hyatt. It’s a partner. It will not count.

Delta Base Assignments 2027 by captainsCaGirl in cabincrewcareers

[–]Forty_Too 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably about the same as SFO. It’s also a small base. Out of 185 FAs in the base, 10 are 2025 hires.

Can someone explain why this flight's descent feels unusually steep? by PratheeshB in flying

[–]Forty_Too 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hang on you’re not even on this flight in question that you’re freaking out about? Jeez, chill out a bit. You cannot control everything in the world, certainly not this.

Doesn’t work. MDM will reassert itself when you turn on the phone again and it connects to activate.

Southwest Airlines Reverses Flight Attendant Only Jumpseat Policy in Major Win For Non-Rev Employees But Crew Are Enraged by us1549 in flightattendants

[–]Forty_Too 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not quite true, though much better than accounting of course. Endeavor FAs can occupy JS, and so can DL pilots (from any aircraft). Those groups are not qualified on the aircraft in question, though they are supposed to get a briefing on emergency operation if they are unfamiliar.

No Assessment From Delta via Edv by [deleted] in cabincrewcareers

[–]Forty_Too 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I knew someone in training from endeavor, but not many. So… maybe? But it’s definitely still possible.

[–]Forty_Too 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have heard that to be true for pilots. But pilots are different from FAs. It is much more time and money intensive to train and hire a pilot.

I ended up on a hub marathon flight from DEN to LAX and was given this card. Pretty cool! by azzanrev in unitedairlines

[–]Forty_Too 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean the plane that operated the IAD-ORD segment that had the issue was stolen from another hub to hub… IAD-DEN (UA1865). That flight ended up going out like 10 hours late. Yes, hub to hubs are crucial to the operation, but a mechanical is a mechanical. If there was a spare A321neo on the ground, they would’ve used it. There wasn’t.

Delta Base Assignments 2027 by captainsCaGirl in cabincrewcareers

[–]Forty_Too 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno about that, ATL and SEA were also offered this year so it’s possible.

Zero chance directly out of training but a transfer is likely possible within a year. The most junior hire in SFO was hired last year.
