Amazing secrets of flight attendants that you never know!!

Nigeria is one of the country that have high rate of frequent travellers in the world and so its important to know some secrets that Flight attendants would never divulge if you are not in the know

1. They’ll intentionally delay flights

If a flight is delayed, the crew often gets paid overtime. But this only kicks in after a certain amount of delay, so sometimes the crew (after the doors have closed and they are in fact on the clock) will delay take off intentionally.

2. Nice clothes can get you to first class

You actually can be upgraded for free to business or first class once the cabin doors have
been closed. But here’s a secret: the crew isn’t going to put a slob in stained sweatpants up there, so dressing nice could be your ticket to first class service at economy prices.

3. They throw out the extra wine

The plane isn’t allowed to have opened, unfinished bottles of wine when they land, so they pour out all extra wine. If you mention you know this, it could be hard for your attendant to deny you a couple extra free glasses.

If you’re asleep, your flight attendant is supposed to leave you alone and that means less work. For this reason, the crew will often delay dinner as long as possible on night flights, so that half the plane is asleep and they don’t have to serve that half.

If the crew doesn’t seem to care about you until the doors are closed, that’s because they’re not being paid to. They don’t make a dollar until those doors are shut which is also why they rush you to put your bags away and sit down

8. You only think you know turbulence

Flight attendants laugh when they hear passengers swap stories of “the worst turbulence ever” and “dangerously bumpy flights.” Out of the over 2 million people who fly yearly, there have only been three fatalities due to turbulence in over 30 years, and two of those individuals were not wearing their seatbelts.

9. Joining the mile high club is not illegal

That’s right! If you can get away with it, you didn’t do anything wrong. That being said, flight attendants almost always know when this is happening, and will ask you to exit the lavatory.

10. They’re sneaking you decaf coffee

Why would they give you regular if that just means you’ll be awake for hours, wanting snacks, wanting
