“The High Life”
Issue #885 (Mar 8, 2007) has address my curiosity on the Truths & Myths about being an air stewardess. The ever elusive mile-high clubs where everyone wants to be a member of, but could never master the art of contortion in the toilet. However, witness accounts from Kym Ng and other flight attendants confirmed the myth on the existence of such a ‘club’. This issue is a wonderful guide for those thinking of joining as a cabin crew and gave insights into the occupation from various angles. From horror stories of unruly customers which is ass-biting, state of bathroom cleanliness (some humans are Neanderthals even at 30,000 feet) to the love cauldron between cabin and flight crew where anything can happen since space is limited and your senses are heightened. We journey through the wonder years from the 80’s to present day images of the Singapore Girl and ponder if it is still a ‘great way to fly’ while Kym answers questions we always wanted to ask. My checklist reads: ‘Brains vs Beauty’ is debated and checked; salary and allowance figures checked; stereotyping checked; grooming tips checked; service standards checked and finally, bad customers stories checked.
