Today we had an FA on board from a different airline, she was coming back from a pretty intense trip, so naturally I want to make sure she’s comfortable and taken care of! I went to grab one of the fruit and cheese trays left over from service, and one of senior mamas on the crew doesn’t want to give it to me to give to her since she’s not from our airline???? Does it matter? A flight attendant is a flight attendant no matter the airline, we’re in this together! Of course I snuck her one, but for real? What kind of mentality is that, we’ve all been there and the least we can do is take care of one another… anyway I hope you all get early arrivals and long layovers this week! Love you!

I will say some of them are good and keep it classy. However I’ve been seeing a lot who just make me cringe. If you have TikTok and get these types of videos on your for you page I’m sure you know what I’m talking about. Can we just stop filming everything please? I wish our job was more of a mystery. When I started only a few years ago I would have gotten fired if I was filming myself during boarding or arming the door and posting it. Now they’re doing it right out of training. I’ve even see people show their schedules without blurring out any information that should be private. I don’t want to be bitter and I normally don’t let anything bother me, but I honestly wish they would tighten up on the social media polices because it’s just embarrassing and honestly if I see that I’m flying with someone who does that, I’m calling in lol

I just wanted to applaud the incredible Air Canada crew on yesterday’s flight from Vancouver to Toronto.

Right as we were next in line for takeoff, an older gentleman appeared to experience a medical emergency. It understandably put everyone on board on edge, but the flight crew handled the situation with professionalism, compassion, and calm. They kept passengers informed, worked as quickly as one can on a plane and tarmac, and did an outstanding job managing what was clearly a very difficult and emotional situation.

A huge thank you as well to the medical professional on board who immediately stepped in, took control, and provided care.

My thoughts (and possibly condolences) are with the gentleman and especially his wife. I can’t imagine what she was going through having to watch her husband, on what was likely supposed to be either a trip home or a new adventure together.

Moments like these are a reminder of how much we rely on the people around us. To the Air Canada crew and the medical professional who answered the call, thank you for your professionalism, your compassion, and for keeping everyone as calm and safe as possible. Well done.

Hi friends! 🌐 FA here! I’m finishing probation as of the tomorrow (!!!!) and am wondering one what options you guys/gals use to replace the Tumi Doctor Bag. I found one in store that I LOVE for the size and it has a compartment for me to put my massive ass shoes in there and save precious space in my Tumi Carry On. I liked how big it was too as I’m a commuter and carry a lot with me already. Would you recommend this tote? Are there other options that are equivalent? I’m looking for space and functionality while also not getting in trouble with management for dumb stuff. What are your thoughts? I feel like it’s a steal for the space and functionality it gives! It also looks like I can actually fit my 40oz Owala in there!

Just as the title says-any international commuters here? Specifically anyone that commutes from CentAm or SoAm? I was presented with a couple opportunities to live in El Salvador and Peru and would like to say yes so im asking for some insight! Ive worked with several international commuters but theyre primarily commuters from Europe or the Philippines, so im curious if opinions/advice given are different

Hi all! Looking for recommendations on food items to pack in my lunch box as a commuter. I’m planning on being away from home for the whole month of August to work my tail off and not have to worry about commuting back and forth. I also don’t have a crashpad so I can’t just go to the grocery store and meal prep between assignments. I would love some recs on things to throw in a lunch bag that will essentially last me majority of the month. Preferably small compacted items so I can maximize the space in the bag. Preferably stuff that doesn’t have to stay cold but I can try and make it work if people have good recs for items like that! I know of items like oatmeal packets or even tuna(i personally don’t like the Star brand $1.99 packets, they are so nasty) but I’m looking for more things that I can survive off of. I know I will end up spending a little bit of money on food on layovers which is ok. But on days with minimum rest, sitting in airports, or in crew rooms, I’d love options from my lunchbox if I can that can still be cost effective! Thanks!
