Flight down to Montego Bay.
Wow, those people were partiers!
We cleared out the entire liquor cart on the way down. I had a pretty rowdy group in the front of
the plane and accidentally over served an older lady in the front. It’s pretty hard to tell when someone has had
too much until it’s too late. Her son,
in the row behind her (a guy in his 40’s), kept ordering rounds for the entire
family. The mother (grandma) and her granddaughter
were sitting in row one and apparently grandma spilled a drink all over the
granddaughter, who looked mortified that her grandma was so drunk. When we handed out the customs forms, she
started crying when she asked “do I put married or single? My husband just died”. I felt horrible for her.
I didn’t care for the F3 on this trip. She wasn’t friendly, didn’t talk to us, acted
like the passengers were an inconvenience and sat in the back galley on her
phone the whole time. This was the first
trip I’ve taken with WiFi. The F1 and I
had a good time though – helped each other out with service and then sat up
front and chit chatted the whole flight.
He’s a straight male flight attendant, which I also haven’t flown with
before lol. He’s into sci fi and poor
person traveling, just like me, so we had a lot to talk about.
We wanted to grab food in Montego Bay, so got off the
airplane – the F1, me and the F/O.
Little did we know that we’d have to go All the way out of security,
through customs and back in and around.
The lines were long and it took Forever!! I bought an extremely overpriced sandwich and
went back to the plane. As soon as we
opened our food, all of us knew it was not good. The F/O was kind enough to run back to the
terminal and switch out our food, but I still was too nervous to eat it. Lesson learned: Do not get off the plane or buy food in MBJ.
When we got back to JFK, the 3 of us met downstairs for
dinner and drinks. We didn’t really want
to invite the F3 because she just wasn’t a pleasant person, but we felt
bad. 2 men walked in and sat down at the
table behind us. I could peg them as
pilots the instant they came in. It’s a
new game I play on layovers “who in the bar is a pilot”. Turns out I was right lol.
