@@itsmeprasad1987 Only a woke insane simpleton would desire flight crew members based on their sex rather than ability. And certainly I wouldn't even want a flight attendant who openly embraces putting evil woke politics ahead of passenger safety. Especially a flight attendant who goes so far as to mock passengers who prefer safety over identity. So no thank you!

She was born to be in a people-facing role. What a pleasant person.
She certainly has that parroting woke sexist non-sense that simpleminded people enjoy down pat like pilots should be hired based on sex rather than ability.
'Guy was trying to bite everyone...bless him' 🤣
I know right 😂😂
It was a better option than the airline food.
Bless her.

What a class act: warm, intelligent, elegant. Really informative and appreciate her ability to understand that the aggressive passenger was suffering from a mental illness. Handled a very challenging situation and yet is able to show compassion.
A family member was going through a very rough time a few years back, and is also mildly claustrophobic. He's never been a nervous flyer, though, and in fact holds a pilot's license. Anyway, it all came to a head and he ended up suffering a full-blown anxiety attack on a plane as it was taxiing for takeoff. He jumped out of his seat and bolted for the door. A flight attendant immediately recognized the situation and knew that ordering him back to his seat would do no good; he was in fight-or-flight mode. Instead, she allowed him to remain in the galley where he had some space, and calmly talked him through some breathing exercises until he was able to return to his seat. The flight was not delayed. He was able to make it through the flight without further incident (she checked on him often) and has been able to tame his anxiety with some ongoing work. We're both very grateful for this superb flight attendant who, using a little training and a whole lot of empathy, was able to so gracefully handle a humiliating and potentially dangerous situation.
I love how she said if it was a nighttime flight and they were discreet she wouldn’t disturb them 😂😂 I like her personality!
Loved that she upgraded the gentleman who was subject to the racism!
Yeah, because that won't make the racist guy worse...
@@ebridgewaterand upgrading him (whilst essentially reinforcing) his disgraceful behaviour wouldn’t?
Brilliant response
That's definitely the best move, but it still sucks that the racists actions were still rewarded. Even though he didn't get an upgrade, he disrupted the other passengers flight and got an empty seat next to him as a result. I hope they banned him afterwards
That was pure genius 👌👌😂
30 yr FA for AA. I was the Purser (Inflight manager) on an overnight flight to LHR. Got a call that 2 passengers had snuck into the back restroom. We listened at the door & quickly knew what they were engaged in. We grabbed a piece of paper & made a “Welcome to the mile high club” certificate & about six of the crew all gathered around the lavatory door waiting patiently. The door unlocked and the young lady stepped out. The crew whooped and cheered stating loudly “Welcome to Mile the Club”! Loud enough the entire back of Economy class all turned to see what was going on. The cheering continued until the male came out & the both of them slinking back to their seats in very bright shades of red. We must always be in constant supervision of the cabin & lavs so the chance of not getting caught will be slim to none.
Do that in 2024 and get sued. 🤦🏾♂️
@@1LORENZOUTUBEwhat?
why though😂😂 just let them do they thing
Can we talk about the fact that Mandy is probably the coolest flight attendant ever
I have the deepest respect for flight attendants in modern times. The amount of difficult people they have to deal with, I could not do that. She is so calm and warm, a perfect personality for that difficult job. ❤
Such a classy, well-spoken, and gracious professional lady, who’s obviously hardworking and certainly seems caring (not to mention she’s likely got the patience of Job as a member of flight crew)! A joy to behold.
She seems like the most patient person ever😂

I was double booked (same seat number) as another passenger on Virgin JNB-LHR. I was seated first, and she complained, LOUDLY. The flight attendant asked if she really insisted on that seat, she demanded yes, so the FA upgraded me to Upper Class.
She is so incredibly likeable! Love her personality.
Oh I like that one. I think I’m going to use that “my cooking isn’t bad, it’s your taste buds, they haven’t adjusted” 😂😂😂
As a muslim who has prayed on a plane several times. I always did it while sitting on my seat to not disturb anyone and be respectfull. In special cases you can pray while sitting down. I never understand people that lay out something on the floor in an airplane. I think most of those people are just showing off and that is not commendable at all.
Same, that’s what people did on Saudi Airlines.
A Muslim praying on a plane can worry non-Muslim / non-religious people.
yes, islam always teach us to ease others. when traveling in a vehicle, the go-to would be to pray in your seat if there’s no room available.
@@ebridgewater Only if those non-muslin/non-religious people are racist. No normal, accepting person will be bothered by prayer.
@@ebridgewater Would a Christian praying on a plane worry non Christians? No? Then people can their own business.
I love this interview format
The crash she is referring to is that of Birgenair Flight 301 which occurred on the 7th of February 1996 and was the joint-deadliest aviation incident involving a Boeing 757 (along with American Airlines Flight 77) having a total of 189 fatalities. Furthermore, Flight 301 is the deadliest aviation accident ever to have occurred in the Dominican Republic.
It was caused by erroneous airspeed readings.
There was evidence that some of the recovered bodies had been 'mangled' by sharks and life rafts were found floating in the area. But obviously no one knows how many of them had survived and were subsequently eaten or attacked by the sharks.
"All 189 people on board a Boeing 757 charter plane - most of them German tourists heading home from two weeks of tropical sunshine - were killed yesterday when their aircraft crashed into the Caribbean minutes after taking off from Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic."
"US Coast Guard vessels joined the rescue effort before dawn yesterday. Officers said they and the Dominican navy had picked up 40 bodies by afternoon, some of them injured by sharks.
Dominican officials said there was little hope that anyone survived. The Coast Guard said schools of circling sharks made it too dangerous to use divers.
The aircraft apparently sank quickly but reports of empty life rafts floating among the debris suggested some passengers may have escaped from the wreckage, only to be blown towards the sharks by stormy winds and eight foot waves."
Much love to her for keeping it classy and being very emphatic, plus educating us. Furthermore, much love to all the cabin crew up there taking care of us while traveling ❤
I love Mandy for upgrading the victim of racism!
I could listen to her explain complicated theories all day 😍
I was asked to sit next to a Bangladeshi because no one else wanted to. I sat next to him from Philippines to Canada. He was a great education to me, Very well clued up with great ideas. The time "flew"
I was boarding a flight to Spain and the captain was at the aircraft door greeting us passengers. When my ex realised the pilot was a woman he tried to convince me to leave the flight. He actually visibly paled when he cottoned on.
He was an uptight nightmare the WHOLE flight which further peed me off as I’m a nervous flyer.
I dumped him but had to stay in the booked apartment with him for the whole week 🤦🏻♀️.
And some men wonder why we still feel a bit picked on and singled out.
Judging by a non-catastophic ending, I'm guessing the plane was landed safely by the male co-pilot, right?
Never happened.
Have a lot of respect for cabin crew, they take a lot of nonsense at times from very rude people.
@@aaronoshea3453is your life that boring that you think that's a made up story? what bit about that story seemed so unrealistic to you?
@@sgtjonzo probs all of it to be honest. If someone came to you and said this, would you believe it? Lol
Firstly, if anyone refused to fly because it was a female pilot then they would be wasting money... doubt anyone would do that.
This was really interesting. Thank you for answering these questions.
Glad to know all those funny rules on airplanes have a very serious and rational reason behind them! So interesting.
Very informative. My wife and I think you're all angels when we fly.
This lady is absolutely brilliant and knowledgeable! What a fantastic person to learn from ❤
Learn inane woke ideology I guess. Unlike her I prefer pilots based on ability not gender. Y'know, I'm the kind of person she mocks.
I heard that "altitude changes tastebuds" explanation so often... But A), I've been to altitudes of close to 6000m, and stuff still tasted fine, and B) I brought plenty of my own food on planes and even a cheap ass sandwich is normally tastier than the crap which is in those trays...
as a cabin crew myself im so happy she’s explaining all of these things, can stop people being so difficult when its time to secure when they know why we ask them to do certain things
Please thank her for her honesty in the answers
This is so interesting! I’ve always been hugely fascinated by how airplanes operate and this gave me some new insights that I haven’t heard before. I know a lot of people have a fear of flying, but I always look forward to it and love the whole airport and flight experience. Maybe that’s because I don’t travel often for it to become tedious!
Great interview thank you for this insight
Only one thing I know not true for many airlines (according to VPs who make the rules not just not cabin crew like this lady): upgrades will go to commercial passengers first not standby staff - especially if they have rewards members, they want frequent flyers to a) have a really good experience and spread the word that the rewards schemes are worth it and b) let frequent flyers experience the higher cabins so they get a taste for it and might book it next time.
Emirates always upgrades skywards members when they can. Dressing smart and being nice (not demanding) is a must though.
From personal experience, it's actually the pilots who decide who gets what seat! At least with the airlines I've travelled on. It's the Captain's decision at the end of the day - he decides who gets what upgrade/seat depending on who's listed to fly. Companies obviously want to publicise the fact that they prioritise their frequent fliers (to incentivise people to buy), but staff travel actually comes first most of the time.
Emirates might be different, but the UK airlines I'm familiar with prioritise staff travel (especially if the passenger is travelling with a crew member).
I’m terrified of flying. Loved listening to her explain some technical stuff!
Me too and I absolutely hate it. I have to be sedated.
@@Nepenthe4life what do u use for that? alcohol doesnt work for me anymore
@@robertcristianoros1293 hi, flight attendant here as well, you can get some medicine for nausea, it makes people drowsy after 30 minutes so if you take it before boarding, get seated, and keep your seatbelt visible so we don't have to wake you up, you'll have a nice long sleep fairly easily :) Avoid driving afterwards if your flight is short as the effects last several hours!
So you never wanted to work like her as flight crew or pilot?@@Nepenthe4life

1/20 flights is often! 😂
I thought that when she said it.
Literally just made that comment too 😂😂😂
1/20 days at home would be a lot for me 😂😂
i think she meant 1/20 flights she personally flies, and cabin crew flying long hauls fly around 4 or 5 rotations a month, so it would be once every few months :) and i fly short/medium hauls and it doesn't happen as the lavatories are in our galleys anyway. So once every few months only on big aircrafts that fly long haul. It's not that often! (unless you combine all flights in the world then it must be a hundred times a day or more probably lol)
she meant 1/20 of HER flights
7:42 Atta Girl 😂! Great show! - just me in Palm Springs 🌴
She's such a kind and intelligent woman
The woke mind who prefers pilots based on identity over ability is neither intelligent nor kind. Stupid and evil would be an appropriate description.
Nice one lad bible! Thats very interesting for an AV geek like me
Classy interview. Awesome!
Aw I like this one. I like all these honesty box videos but I find this one fascinating 🙂
This woman needs a raise.
I hope shes in or has been offerer a training role

I too need a raise
13:20 airplane mode. She's right on most things, but wrong on this one. The ILS beacon is in a different frequency range. There are international laws and agreements on what frequency bands are used by telecom and other users, specifically to prevent what she's claiming. It does, however, quickly drain your battery because your phone keeps trying to connect to cell towers that aren't there.
If something so dramatic as losing an ILS signal could happen, phones would be permanently banned on board.
It's to avoid the fairly small risk of interference with any of the airplanes electronics. If they did not insist on flight mode the airplane electronics would have to be designed, tested and regularly re-certified compatible with full strength mobile/cellular phone signals. Some commercial planes flying today were built before cell phones even existed.
One thing she said that is wrong, statistically if you look at historical data on crashes, the further back in the plane you sit the more likely you are to survive in a crash. The seats over the wings are less effected by turbulence, but sitting closest to the huge wings full of fuel isn't ideal for survivability during a crash.
In the rear is more likely to survive the crash but in the front is more likely to survive the fire so pick your poison.
In the US, we don’t require window shades open at any time. We do require tray tables closed, laptops out away, and seats fully forward… but arm rests are fine left in the up position
Very interesting thank you x
Lovely interview 😊
This woman just helped my flying fears so much!!!
She’s fabulous. So bubbly and I learned so much!
While elevation can affect taste, I think it's pretty widely agreed that airplane food sucks these days. Especially compared with 50-60 years ago.
Sandwich tastes just fine , meal tastes like shit, yeah it’s the altitude.
That's a stupid comparison. 50-60 years ago, ticket prices are the same as first class today. 90% of passengers today won't be able to afford to fly at all.
@@nntflow7058what's that got to do with altitude affecting taste?
@@thatsthat2612 What are you talking about?
Agreed. I've had excellent meals on flights. You CAN make food taste good in altitude. But obviously the incentive just isn't there in most cases.
Great interview, I really enjoyed it! Especially the stories about the 18 year old lady and the racist guy! 😂 Bless you!!!❤
Virgin Atlantic: You will come on this flight a virgin, and leave it a virgin!
🤣🤣🤣
Unless it is at night, it seems!
As an aviation geek I am impressed that I knew the answers to most of these questions - thanks to another UA-camr I follow, he's a pilot & his wife was cabin crew ...🤣😂🤣
The statistics say over 80% of people survive aviation accidents but that statistic does not specify accidents into categories like only including those that were a total hull loss vs things like a bird strike, uncontained fan failures, fuel exhausted, etc. where there was repairable damage and maybe some nail biting moments but still finished with a runway landing. Even a total hull loss has had large numbers of survivors such as US Airways ditching in the Hudson river in NY where everyone survived with only a few minor injuries even though the aircraft was a write-off.
I’ve been a pilot since 1994. Mobile phones do NOT affect anything. The old phones in the 90’s actually did, but not on phones made after 1996. It’s stupid. When I’m flying my own plane, I never turn the phone to airplane mode. Talk to pilots - 90%+ will tell you the same thing, but get the government involved, laws are almost never changed once they’re past
Laws are almost never become the past once they've been passed.
Passed, not past.
Mobile phones do create potential issues so no, it's not "stupid" .
Loved the video. Very informative. Very professional lady
I joined the mile high club the easy way; we moved to Denver!
I always had mad respect for cabin crew, but I do my best to respect everyone doing their job anywhere, anyhow, so yeah. :D
It doesn't happen that often... maybe 1 out of 30 flights.. and here I am, a former airline employee who always thought that kind of stuff doesn't happen anymore since 9/11.
She is everything 😍🥰
She’s fabulous!
About the radio signals. The ILS frequency ranges from 108 to 112 MHz. There is nothing in the cellphone with that capability. 2.4 GHz or 5GHz for wireless, 800 MHz, 1200, etc for mobile network. Nothing on 108 to 112.
My wife, who is much more seasoned than me when it comes to air travel, has a conspiracy theory regarding the brace position. Somebody once told her that people are told to adopt the brace position as your neck will snap quicker if the plane crashes. What creeps me out about that is that somebody said that to her as a child. She used to fly a lot as an ‘un accompanied minor’ with her dad working all over the world on civil engineering projects.
20:30 yeah that did not help my fear of flying but thanks nonetheless for the story 😂😂
I never had a problem with the food. Hungry and it all tastes good 😁
18:50 😂 love her
The fuselage is not sheet metal. It is either high strength aluminum alloys, carbon fiber, or both.
I don’t think anyone cares what it is as long as it doesn’t have any holes in it
Yeah, high strength aluminium alloy sheet metal
What a lovely and wise person
always thought "blinds up" is so first responders actually can look inside in case of a big mishap... anyway, thanks for the great insights!
I was a on a flight where a guy in the front needed CPR after defib did not work. They called for docs and nurses and at least 5 people went up and some eventually returned to their seats. Two took turns doing CPR. We were diverted to land quickly and they got the guy off and said he was receiving "proper medical care" and thanked the flight crew and those that helped. The pilot can say all he wants, but when you do CPR for a long time it means the guys is dead or will be soon.
Sound like heroes to volunteer for that
Airoplane mode !. I have noticed that some passagers don't seem to care and others just don't understand English ... and to my surprise no flight attendant paying any attention !!!. I'm in Australia which is a wonderful well organised country !.
for obese customers, I heard you can buy two seats as is expected, but sometimes you can apply to the airline after the flight and if they were not full on that flight, some airlines will reimburse you.
Sounds like something an obese person would say
what a lovely woman!!
Getting upgraded is simple.
Just make sure you’re one of the last to board 😂

@13:28 this makes no sense... if you have your phone in airplane mode. All the signals coming off the cell tower and still going straight through the plane and straight through your phone. Your phone just isn't listening the signals now.
This would be like me telling you to close your eyes, that way you can walk out a 5 story window, since you don't see the ground, you will just float on the air.
I just went to nyc from Amsterdam and back with KLM. I thought the food was incredible
Also, people who sit in exit rows are usually travelling on their own, as they don't have any dependants in an emergency.

I can't find any information on any airlines incidents involving ditching that resulted in anyone being eaten by sharks. The closest I've come is ALM Flight 980 which crashed in shark-infested waters, but no source claims that any of the 23 fatalities were shark-related. I would be interested if anyone else could provide information, because that sounds wild to me. Further, the airplane mode claim has been debunked so many times it's almost getting boring. I'm sure she's told so many passengers by now that she truly believes it. I suppose it's not harming anybody.
Agreed think her story about the ditching is inaccurate.
yeah, I tried googling that as well and no results came up that matched with her story

@@NotInAsia thanks for the info, that's interesting and is quite possibly what the lady is referring to. I only say *possibly* because the incident you mention was not a controlled emergency landing on water (aka a water ditching) but an uncontrolled crash due to malfunction with the plane. Also, there was evidence of shark predation on some bodies but not surviving passengers being attacked by sharks as is claimed. It seems that this flight attendant is possibly confusing/conflating various incidents so it's difficult to know for sure.
@@systemofapown yes but that's called 'Chinese whispers', stories inevitably become embellished as they're passed on. On Wikipedia it says everyone died on impact. So I think that's the official hypothesis. But the media reported them being eaten. I guess it's more news-worthy. So that probably just existed in her memory.
One question I would of asked would of been, "is the brace position actually the safest." As I've heard many rumours before, like, if you crash, your head is against the seat in front of you and your neck will break. The rumour is, it's cheaper for airlines to pay one off payments for dead passengers then a life time of payments, or larger payments to cover that passengers disabilities or injuries sustained for the rest of their life.
i witnessed that exact upgrade (18:40) on a flight home from san francisco. The cabin crew ignored the racist passenger for the whole flight. 🤣🤣

Romans 6.23
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

I would fly any time with you. I fly a lot and I am always amazed how rude people are towards the flight crew.
How do you manage flight anxiety? You fly so much so perhaps you have found a way. Is it Xanax that you take or other sleep medicine? Or alcohol?
@@dreamthedream8929 My daughter can get airsick so I make sure she takes a tablet at least 1 hour before take off. I may get a bit nervous if we hit bad turbulence and listening to music works for me. Best thing to do is google what solutions people use. I know you can do a training course for nervous fliers. I have no idea if Xanax or the likes helps.
Can you say "PRO"? One classy professional lady! I've always liked Sir Branson and Virgin and now I like them even more.
So you agree with her insane belief that pilots should be hired based on sex rather than on ability? Not classy nor professional, woke is the term.
Everytime I've booked a flight I have to put in all my info and it's never allowed me to buy two seats. Honestly that would be tempting and I'm 5 feet tall and 125 lbs!
she's so lovely
May I recommend this to 47 gear? Kelsey is really hilarious with this stuff😂
18:46 ahhhh so that’s how to get upgraded 😜
I personally know a virgin pilot. He has confirmed multiple times that the food is in fact shit.
You’d of thought he’d be getting laid being a pilot 😂
Yeh but what can they do? Install a full kitchen, gas oven, plumbing and all?
Any food that has to be prepped, frozen and sealed won't taste great. It's not like you have to eat it for your 2 week holiday.
@@fsociety.dat101 jeez…you put some thought into that comment 😆😆
We are flying 12 hours from Boston to Hawaii. The flight right now is half empty. My wife and I are both 6'2. I'm hoping they allow us to move forward
did you move forward? haha
No…it doesn’t happen often…maybe once every 20/30 flights…that’s pretty often I’d say 😂😂
My experience of airplane food is mostly positive, not blown away but not bad either
Ok I am fully convinced this is some kind of gag. The story of her upgrading the person of color is an old youtube vine. She's taking us for a ride.
Someone needs to tell her about Sully and the Hudson River plane landing. I thought the FAA starting incorporating landings on water after that
She refers to it at 19:50
So you think Hudson is an ocean??? Gee...
You are right the food isn't bad - it is awful. The altitude has nothing to do with being served slurry.
Funny how waiting tables is a uni job in the UK and a true métier in many other places.
The foods not bad? You…are a great ambassador for your company. They should adjust the menus for the altitude.👍
I feel like the answer to the question on why the seats, window blinds, and tray table need to be up during take-off and landing needs more detail and I will attempt to provide it. The riskiest parts of a flight is the take-off and landing, it's where the pilots have the least amount of time to react to any emergency situation. Should an emergency occur at this time, the airplane will have to either crash or crash-land very quicly which then means you'll have to get out of the airplane very quickly. Having your tray tables down will impede you from getting out quickly in a crash, the seat infront of you could also deform from the crash preventing you from putting it back up too causing you to have to wrestle with it in the fire and smoke to get out. Similarly if your seat is reclined, in a crash it's going to impede the person behind you from getting out quickly - so that's why when the airplane is close to the ground, you're required to put the tray tables and seats in a position which allows quick exit. As for the window blinds, it's about giving your eyes the time to adust to the outside lighting so that in the event of a crash, you exit the airplane quicly and your eyes are already adjusted to the outside light so you can find your way away from the crashed airplane fast.
I would also like to elaborate more on the airplane mode bit because some people have asked how is it that a $500 phone can interrupt a $100,000,000 airplane. Mobile phones are always searching for cell signals 24/7 where your phone sends out a ping to the cell tower every few seconds just to inform the cell tower that your phone's connected to it and waits for a ping back from the cell tower to confirm.
On the ground when your mobile phone senses that the cell signal is weak from the cell tower's reply, it will automatically boost its own transmission signal to make sure the signal it sends out can get to the cell tower - this is why your battery also drains faster if you have a weak cell signal. If you don't put your phone into airplane mode when you're in an airplane, as the airplane takes off the phone will sense that the cell signal is weakening and will keep sending out stronger and stronger pings to try and reach a cell tower until a point where the phone is just sending pings at maximum transmission power.
One phone doing this alone isn't likely to cause issues with the airplane unless the airplane itself was struggling to pick up a very faint signal from the ground or from satellites. However if all the passengers in the airplane had their phones not in airplane mode, you're talking about 100 or more phones all blasting pings at max transmission power trying to reach a cell tower and the resulting massive bursts of transmissions can interrupt the airplane's own trasmitters and receivers trying to reach something far away on the ground.
@@pjninja9546 Having zero, one or million phones makes absolutely no difference since mobile phones work in frequency bands that have absolutely nothing with any of the frequency band that any of the plane or ground equipment is using. So stop spreading this idiotic BS.
@@perakojot6524 While commercial airline equipment doesn't generally operate on the same frequencies as mobile phones, Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) can still occur due to the complex nature of electromagnetic signals and the potential for harmonics and spurious emissions from electronic devices. Here are some ways RFI can occur even when the frequencies are different:
- Harmonics: Electronic devices can emit harmonic frequencies that are multiples of their operating frequency. If a mobile phone emits harmonics that fall within the frequency range of aircraft systems, it can cause interference.
- Spurious Emissions: These are unintended emissions at frequencies other than the primary operating frequency of a device. They can occur due to imperfections in electronic components or circuit design. If these emissions fall within the frequency range of aircraft systems, they can cause interference.
- Conducted Interference: Even if the emitted frequency is not in the range of aircraft systems, it can still cause interference through conducted pathways, such as through power lines or other conductive paths in the aircraft.
To mitigate these risks,the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) have strict regulations to minimize the potential for interference.
I don’t think the taste bud theory is efficient enough for how bad the food is. It just is bad and low quality…prison food basically.
A question for you. How many lives have been saved because there is a life vest under the seat ? How many have died as a result of misuse of the life vests.
I hate to beg your pardon, but when I first started flying airline food was delicious. In the 70s Swissair's food was fabulous (including the champaign)! The $$ allocated to food precipitously declined.

Um, "climate change" has made the air pressure magically different so that's why it's worse now? LOL
