S3 Episode 4: Wingin’ It – On Air with Toni the Flight Attendant – Bound by the Cloak
Have you ever had a question for a flight attendant that you’ve always wanted to ask but never had the chance? Well you’re in luck, so do we. We caught up with Toni, a flight attendant with her very own blog, A Wheel in the Sky.
We asked Toni about everything from what her typical flight routine is like to the craziest things she’s experienced on a flight! She did not disappoint.
Toni blogs about work, travel and just life in general. Her blog is a great insight into the world of a profession that doesn’t always get the respect it deserves.
Be sure to sign the petition for flight attendants to get paid for boarding! Not all flight attendants get paid for boarding, even though it’s part of their responsibilities. It’s time for that to change!
