i retired a few years ago from the f/a job. International flying is really hard on the body. It didn’t matter if i napped when i got in or not, i always felt like crap. These guys are young and adventurous. Later on the the career, a lot of us just did our own thing.

You are so professional and fun to watch. Love how you are so organized and care about your fellow crew members having what they need. Thanks for sharing your trip to London. ✈❤

I love, love your VLOGS. Very professional, informative and friendly. Great for all to see how hard we really work. Good job!

Very important: you HAVE to toast the crumpets!!! Then you spread butter on them and eat while hot and as the butter melts. I think before you and John ate them cold. Butter and Nutella or butter and jam is even better 😊 Happy to help.

I always enjoy your vlogs! Thanks for posting them and know you, john, and Mia are in my thoughts for a joyous holiday season! Merry christmas!

Another great video! Especially appreciated the aircraft stats! Thanks!

Have fun at Disney World and your cruise and I’ll have fun in Cabo! Happy holidays to you and John!🎄❤️🎁

Thanks for showing your duties on the aircraft and your narrative of the crew going to and from plane and airport. Enjoyed it. Maybe someday I’ll fly a segment with you 😉 …. Come March 1!!!

Love the footage. I know you can’t always film that stuff, but I love behind the scenes stuff.

Très bien Francesco ! 👏👏👏continue tes efforts 👍👍👍💪🫵🏼💪

Hope you had a nice time in London come back soon❤️

Still hope for better LHR trips 🙏 FYi Marks and Spencer is doing a special collaboration with Target on some holiday treats. I got some shortbread and hot chocolate mix, each in decorative LED candle tin. Safe travels to you and John on your upcoming cruise!

Hi..first time viewer from London. The christmas pudding should be eaten hot with brandy butter but you can use cream, ice cream or custard. It's a heavy pudding so you need something with it. Happy eating! 🙂

I would love to have you as my flight attendant 🧡 I can definitely tell you make others smile including me!

As usual, I really enjoyed this vlog, and don't worry about disappointing US in any way! I admit I was a bit shocked by the messy. stuff left behind by the passengers, wow.

i liked how you described the plane layout!

Thanks for this vlog. Everyone have an amazing day. Ciao. Happy holidays.

I enjoy watching your vlog because you’re motivated, down to earth and like grocery shopping when traveling :-)

Blood Orange Marmalade at Fortnum & Mason, sooooo good. I brought three jars home my last trip. My friend and I had several things mailed home to us from Fortum & Mason and SOB, I TOTALLY forgot to add another couple jars of Marmalade. The only one I've found here that comes close is from William Sonoma. Too bad you didn't have a bit more time, London has such great things on offer at Christmas.

Love Greg! Awesome peeps!

Looks like you got some good things!!!! You will enjoy at home with John!

Glad I found your vlogs. I do enjoy watching them.

When you mentioned crew meals weren’t being provided ,maybe that should be brought up with the next collective bargaining session. Yes, you should get a crew meal from the airline,even if the flight is not 12 hrs.

Love the in flight video footage

Super Video Francesco. You were exhausted working a full flight of demanding pax. However, you did get to Marks and Spencers so that was very positive. I had thought of using a pas to LHR this month but I’m just getting over a chest infection, so decided to stay put and finish my Christmas Shopping in YYZ. Enjoy your vacation🇬🇧☕️🧁🛳💖💖

Just could not do this job - thanks for all you do. You are appreciated.

You seemed so disappointment about not doing what you wanted to do in London. Thanks the video😊

Galley is my fave flight position keeps me busy and makes the time fly by. Enjoyed the vlog also hope you get to go back to London soon

Marks and Spenser’s shopping at Christmas time is wonderful, I was in Austria a couple of weeks ago and of course went to Spar to get all my goodies.

So cool to see you working in the galley , love ❤️ this ... Xmas goodies loon so yummy. MARKS AND Spencer looks so similar to our Woolworths ... interesting

People are slobs. It is really not that hard to be clean and respectful. Awesome video, hope you get another LHR trip in December!

I usually stay at the Abbey Court West Point when in London. I ride the Heathrow Express into Paddington Station and the hotel is about two blocks away. The Fabric Discoteque in London is a great place to party at. It’s near the Farringdon stop off the tube,I believe the Bakerloo or Jubilee line.

It's fun to see behind the scenes in the galley

I remember getting assigned to a São Paulo trip on the 787 as the #5. The whole crew (2 weeks out of training) was reassigned and we had no idea what to do or where to begin lol 😂

Pick up some Christmas baubles from Libertys - the choice and colour is immense xx

The Christmas pudding needs to be eaten hot with cold single cream or brandy sauce ideally.

Hey Francesco!! Very nice. Swahili for me buddy😀. And that 777 is something. Huge kitchen area and how about that delta A330-900NEO. Love my jetplanes. Very very nice. Please keep coming out with more vlogs!!

Glad you enjoyed your M&S shopping trip. Remember to have custard with your Christmas pudding.

You made me laugh on this flight with doing the main cabin meal service going and coming back to you home base. We have always had two people doing the meal service set up for main cabin. One F/A for the right and another for the left side. I had always assigned the extra F/As with the beverage service. When I use to have new F/As coming with me on international trips, I place a couple in Business Class to help out the senior F/As. And then if any other new hires they would go in Economy as well. Now see we had crew member meals for our long haul domestic and international trips. And of the meals that we could order for our trips, I always ordered the Caesar salad to have with a couple of cold sliced boiled eggs finished and placed on top of the salad.

The rear galley on the 777 is a dream

I recently went to BRU for the first time and I was excited to go to the Christmas market to pick up some ornaments. Well....after walking over 2 hours in the freezing cold and light rain....they were only selling food. No ornaments. I was NOT amused. I'm so sorry you didn't have a good time. Congrats on your French. I am starting to learn Arabic.

Italian I would love to learn this year! Wish the apps gave you enough knowledge to be fluent enough for the LOD airline tests!

Christmas pudding is what we have traditionally eat as desert after Christmas dinner. Look up a recipe for rum sauce to go with it. You won't regret it.

Hope you are able to get back there again this month. 🌎

Love the videos as you’re a few who still make them. Hopefully your next trip will be better. One question if you can answer is about your working in the galley. Is it in the aft or it looks like your below deck like in the 747 of first models back in the beginning. That was a lot of room to work as compared to narrow isle aircraft.

Got back yesterday lhr to phx. Got perks. First class. Slept 8 hours living the. Dream!!!😎

I never knew the galley oven racks were removable, but why should they be any different than a home oven, now that I think about it?

I flew British Airways from London to Miami and it took 8hrs+ with the A380-841, I think it is the speed or the flight path

Your French is awesome. Congratulations

I'm gonna make it my personal goal to nonrev on one of your flights I 2023... keep being great my friend 😁😁😁

Would love to see you and Kat do a trip together. Hard I know as you're in different hubs, but would make a great video!

London at Christmas is magical, shame you could not enjoy it the way you wanted.

Are you ever coming to Minneapolis on your flights?

Why on earth would the accommodation be in central London? There are so many good ones right by the airport.

It's crazy they don't provide crew meals. Is this an American or AA thing?

Marks and Spencer rocks 🙂

Just as cute as ever.

I make rum sauce with Christmas pudding.

Try flying to Manchester and visit the north of England and the UK. London is not really typical of the UK and overpriced with colder people. I recommend a trip to York too and other places on the UK for sure. I am British and only ever visited London twice and lived abroad and visited other worldwide cities more often. AA still fly to MAN stopped the ORD service and JFK and think its just the former USAir route to PHL but Virgin have a large base at MAN. Enjoy

Wait, AA doesn't give you crew meals on all international flights? Yikes

You look very handsome in your uniform!

You need to buy Percy Pigs 🐷 and Percy Pigs and Pals which also includes 🐑 and 🐮 sweets (candy) from M&S. They are so good! Your One World Alliance Partner British Airways used to sell M&as food on their short haul flights as buy on board but they have reinstated their complimentary snacks on short haul domestic routes

So sorry the London layover didn't go as planned. I love sightseeing and would love to be on a layover with you to do all the touristy things

Nice haul

I am an AA flight attendant in my 34th year and you are truly a class act 😎

Bunks or no bunks on this 200

I am trying to learn Dutch, I visit there so often since 1996. I really need to get with the program it is hard to speak Dutch 😪

Oh no! Cake!

You work your butt off.

You guys don’t get crew meals? On United even on many domestic trips they get crew meals. That’s terrible!

Great vlog! I just got an invitation for a Virtual group interview from your Airlines! I hope to work with you soon! I am going to celebrate with crumpets! Ha!

Did not realise Americans don’t do Christmas pudding. The more you know 😂

Nice video
