I Commute 7 Hours To Work. This Is Why.
I'm a commuting flight attendant for a major US airline, and a journalist telling stories across America.
I'm based in New York, but have chosen to live in Los Angeles to continue to explore creative endeavors and opportunities out west. I grew up in Brooklyn, so it's really exciting to be finally living in my west coast era. My airline's biggest base is on the east coast, so to have the best of both worlds (getting to layover in places like Guatemala!!) I have decided to commute rather than transferring to my airline's LAX base. This video shows why this journey is so important to me.

@@lalotatoJetBlue’s base is rather small at LAX, but their operation at JFK is massive. They are headquartered there, and have the second largest passenger share at JFK (Delta narrowly beats them by less than one percentage point). So they are likely to fly from JFK, but not LAX.

It's just beyond frustrating to me that ya'll aren't paid til push back and then also deplane and not paid. Unfair. Folks don't realize just how much FA's work for free. It sure has it's perks but it is an exhausting job that folks don't see all sides of. TY for doing what you do! Crew sked appreciates all of you, truly!

Funny you say THIS. It's stressful for me too.
Good luck on your career. I started back in the "dark" ages Feb 1984 flying for PanAm, was based in Berlin, London, Nyc,IAD/DCA, and now ATL. I am headed towards my golden years. In the "retirement" of flying. Combined almost 40 years of service and at PanAm/Delta I am NOT even SENIOR. But it's been one of a ride I wouldn't have missed. I hope all your dreams come thru, you have a great personality, go for it, explore, share and pay it forward in the end it's all that matters when we look back. HAPPINESS.

Thank you for all the positivity. ❤ it looks like you were in a nicer district of Guatemala city, but it is hit or miss and some districts/neighborhoods can be dangerous and high in crime. I’m glad you traveled with caution. So, Guatemala is known for a few major attractions. Antiqua is a historical heritage site that is roughly about an hour and a half away from Guatemala city and the airport, the next time you have a 24 hour+ layover I would highly recommend doing a day trip out there. It’s very European and historical as it was established by the Spanish. The other two areas that I would highly recommend is unlikely that you will have time to do during a layover. Tikal/Flores is about an hour flight, and that is where you would go to visit the pyramids. It’s extraordinary and absolutely amazing. Lastly, a lot of people go to Guatemala to experience Lake Atitlan and the surrounding villages on the lake. It’s an experience like no other. It’s absolutely stunning. Plan for a longer trip and use your benefits. 👌

I lived in Central America (Honduras) for almost a year and it was the best experience. The food, the people and culture was amazing. Everyone was sooooo nice to me. The flights to and from was the best part as it was mostly Honduran people and very few Americans which was perfect. No Karens and no self-imposed entitlements. So amazing to live in a place where there are no Karens!
You were in my feed, and I’m not gonna lie that headline or whatever they call them on here… thumbnail? I had to watch a few minutes and now it’s almost over. Well actually not quite but getting there. You just a few seconds ago, said your age. You’re so mature and doing a great job getting life started! Maybe you’re not so unique in that but you’re definitely not playing around. You will go far pun intended, but seriously. 😂❤ My 2nd youngest is going to be 24 this coming summer. (I also have going on 27, 25, and 21 year olds. Girl, boy, girl, boy.) she just started getting more serious about work and everything but except for vacation with friends a few times she hasn’t exactly widen her horizons as far as you yet. Then again, not everybody wants them quite that far on a weekly basis. It seems awesome. I feel spread pretty thin on here already with some good channels, but I will definitely keep an eye on you. As interesting as I find some of the avionic channels, I’m actually more interested in your observations of different parts of the world. It doesn’t have to be a war zone. Just seeing the different stores or different ways to do things it’s interesting. That whole thing about kids in America in general is sadly true, but I think you’re still will find we have more in common individually anyway, if not as a country - reputation wise (which tends to favor, generalities, and even stereotypes…. Some more truthful than others… but some highly exaggerated. I hope. 😂) then we have differences.

I completely agree that English speakers are somewhat catered too with their language. It's amazing how often you can get by with just English in other countries as long as you remain in the largest cities. If you leave those cities, it can be a shock to realize not everyone speaks English. I remember my first time in Dominican Republic and Jamaica and being shocked that I couldn't communicate with anyone. Of course, apps like Google Translate didn't exist back then. 🙂 And you're so right, it's their country....we shouldn't expect them to automatically know English.

@malickmercier I had previously looked into medical transport flights, but my kids were very little at the time, and I couldn't be flight ready in the required 30 minutes. Also, I think it would be a huge asset to have a flight attendant with a medical background. I always tell my kids when we are out in public, If there is an emergency, do not yell out I am a nurse. The legal implications vary, and I assess them on a case by case basis before I get involved.

It is interesting that you say that the Americans are entitled and that they don't speak any other language besides English. There are millions of people that live in the U.S.(many for decades) that do perfectly fine without speaking a lick of English ......Spanish is everywhere in the U.S. ie in the banks, in the buses, in the hospitals, in the airports!!

Joshua! Congrats!! 🎉 I’m @classymalick on IG. Best training tip: breathe. So many times in a situation you just need oxygen 😅. Remember why you’re there and just breathe. It’ll be such a special part of your life enjoy!
