The stewardess told the British media that the quirks of the rich surprised her while she worked on private planes. “DIP” will tell you more about it.
The flight attendant said that it was not uncommon for clients to demand that their planes be kept immaculately clean. At the same time, some arranged very strange checks:
“The pilots and I sometimes almost crawled around the cockpit in search of the slightest fallen hairs on the carpet.
And one guest was hiding small papers on the plane, just to see if we could find them, testing us to see if we had prepared the plane well enough.”
He broke the seals on free water bottles, reattached the caps, and waited to see if the flight attendant noticed him.
Another strange flight – one of the stars of the first echelon asked the crew not to look into her eyes. Colleagues told them about this situation the stewardess.
Private jet passengers complained about everything from the drinks they were served to the choice of pillows in the cabin, she said.
However, the most unpleasant cases, according to the flight attendant, were unexpected replacements. So, the girl was removed from the flight for various reasons. Once, she was deprived of her shift, at the request of the wife of the owner of the aircraft. The problem was that she was too young.
Another flight attendant, Tia Haskell (not her real name), who has been flying VIP jets for 10 years, said she has been lucky enough to travel all over the world, visiting Singapore, New York, Mauritius, Seychelles, and Dubai.
Although Tia worked with successful and high-profile passengers, they often misbehaved.
“Some passengers get very drunk;
One man left thousands of dollars in a plastic bag in his seat pocket.
On one flight, we were given a $200 tip to stay in the kitchen and close the door during the flight and not disturb the couple,” Haskell told stories.
Once, a famous woman asked the plane to land because she wanted a hamburger.
According to the flight attendant, when it comes to VIP guests, the protocol is paramount and privacy is paramount.
The girl simply cannot tell many situations, but she revealed some more amazing requests from rich passengers:
“On one flight in a larger aircraft, we had 32 live falcons with passengers;
Some celebrities have strange requests for things like a certain color of candy, the taste of potato chips, or a brand of mouthwash.
“Once we had to buy a popcorn machine for a celebrity.”
