Description

Season 1 of The Crew Room allowed me to chat to friends who had wonderful stories to share about their time in the Aviation Industry. However, overnight, COVID had a huge impact on the industry, with airlines grounding fleet, standing staff down, or in some cases, making them redundant. For Season 2, I have decided to go in a new direction. There are MANY crazy things that happen in the aviation industry, many of them involving passengers who literally lose their sh*t over the most menial things. I will be chatting about what it's like to be a Flight Attendant, how hard the job can be if you aren't prepared for the unknown, stories about crazy passengers from all over the globe, and other general stuff that I'm sure will make you grin. As the world is slowly returning to normal, and people want to get back to exploring the world, many staff are struggling to cope with the sheer number of passengers and not enough colleagues to help them assist the passengers both at the airports and inflight. I hope that you enjoy season 2 of The Crew Room, and remember to like, share, and subscribe so you never miss an episode.
