A flight attendant shares detailed advice on exactly how to ruin their day. From boarding tips to in-flight behavior here are the things you are going to want to not do to avoid the ire of your flight attendants.
Flight attendants. The most visible face of your air travel experience. The one person you are most likely to interact with while flying. Sure, you might see a captain as you deplane, or maybe you chat up the gate agent with your complaint, but the flight attendant is the one person you are more likely to engage with.
And as we saw the last few years during some of the most difficult and unusual times to travel (thanks pandy…) the job of a flight attendant got a lot more complicated, difficult and stressful. From being the mask police (thank god that’s over now) to dealing with screaming Karens and intoxicated Kevins, it ain’t easy being a flight attendant.
Now, in a series of videos one popular TikTokker flight attendant shares her advice on what NOT to do on your flight. The things that are guaranteed to ruin that flight attendant’s day.
For example, asking them to help you stow your overpacked, overweight “carryon” (it’s in air quotes because we all know it’s too damn big and you should have checked it). Or, not following their instructions. Or getting up to use the bathroom during the boarding process. Her list is a little short in our opinion, so we’d love to hear from other flight attendants. Drop us a comment below…what irritates you the most about passengers and is sure to ruin your day?

I’m mostly interested in those clearly overworked, suffering flight attendants leaving me alone. Nothing good comes from interacting with them as the vast majority love to show they hate passengers. I’m happy when they typically hide in the galley playing with their phones or strap themselves to the wall because of turbulence (that usually doesn’t happen) preventing them from performing refreshment service. I’ll never forgive the one that chewed my wife out because she simply asked if there was any gate connection info as our flight was 2 hours late for departure, or the one that bashed my leg so hard with a cart that I eventually bled through my jeans, and chuckled at me as she went by. How about an article telling FAs to pay kindness forward, or find a new job?
