Wow, what a route. I'd be more surprised if she didn't have stories about flying that way.

These days, when I fly I tend to think of this scene from Airplane! Maybe it's because I fly coach, but the absent way that some attendants go about interacting with the passengers sometimes makes me wonder just how stressful the job is and if I could maintain at least the veneer of friendly service, if I were flying all the time.
