    The Seatbelt Standoff

    2026-1-20 | 27 mins.
    Celebrities have to follow the rules like the rest of us, but that doesn't mean that a few of them don't put up a fight!
    On today's episode, we hear the true story about a celebrity who refused to comply with not just the cabin crew's requests, but the Captain's too! She was determined to prove that she was in charge, and knew aviation safety procedures better than anyone else and it was left to the flight attendants and flight crew to come up with a creative way to get her to sit down, and shut up!

    The Determined Traveller

    2026-1-13 | 25 mins.
    Would you board a plane knowing you might have a medical emergency on board? Can you imagine being in a situation where you'd risk your own life, or that of your baby, just to make a journey you didn't really need to make?
    And what about the flight attendants who have to deal with the emotional toll of dealing with medical emergencies? Or your fellow passengers who might miss their own connections or major life events because your life is at risk in the air so plane has to divert before reaching it's final destination?
    On today's episode, we hear the true story of a woman who stretched the truth about how pregnant she was, and nearly gave birth in the air. And how that affects the cabin crew who are expected to become midwives at 38,000ft!

    The New Year's Diary of a Flight Attendant

    2026-1-07 | 13 mins.
    Travel is a nightmare around the holidays, and frankly, most cabin crew are thankful when it's all over and we can get back to flying around the world on a normal schedule - or as normal as it gets when you wake up in a different city every week!
    In today's episode, we get a glimpse into the inner thoughts of Susan as we read her first diary entry of the year. Reflecting on the craziness of flying over the festive season and how the world aviation becomes stressful for even the most seasoned traveller!

    A Christmas Flight to Remember Revisited

    2025-12-23 | 29 mins.
    In today's episode, we're revisiting a short story from last year - because it aired on Christmas Eve last year and didn't get the listens it deserved!
    This story is about Ally, who was destined to spend Christmas in Johannesburg with her slightly rubbish boyfriend who was also a flight attendant. She decided to try make the best of the situation and arranged for the crew to visit an orphanage to give the children there gifts. But she ended up with a whole new perspective on life.
    Being cabin crew around Christmas isn't the best. You're often alone in a hotel room whilst your family celebrate without you. So this episode is a reminder that no matter how you celebrate, every day on this planet is a gift - so make the most of every opportunity!
