I don't see the problem ... he had a private room and the best seat in the house.

No need to get up and pee. Well I guess you would have to get up.

If I had a porno mag and a flask, you couldn't ASK for a better situation on a flight! As for the mag and flask...if he didn't have them. HIS fault. He had a GREAT situation!

It would be a lot easier to get his chick/girlfriend/wire/perfect stranger in with him for the ol' mile high club because half of the work of getting two people in the bathroom is already complete.

It seems a bit more believable when you watch the video.

ACTUALLY .... dirty little secrets department:

At one of my airline(s) ... we used to have non-rev's (airline employees on personal travel) sitting in the galley and biffys for take-off comin' out of South America as the flights were full of "real" people. Sometimes the non-revs were standing ... ... I did it once coming out of Santiago. Some of the flights only operated once a week, and if you didn't make it, you were stuck ...

Since phrog said watch the video (he kinda said to ) ... I did.

Everything is believable leading up to the part about the "pilot" telling the guy to go sit in the biffy (i.e., airline term for head; bathroom).

If true ... the pilot is/was an idiot. The Flight Attendant (F/A) is/was a whiny bitch, regardless of gender choice.

If false ... the guy is just lookin' for money.

In any case, were he not an airline employee (he's travelin' on a "Buddy Pass" so probably not) -- he should not be occupying a crew jumpseat under any circumstances. The complaining F/A should be disciplined as should the "pilot". The airline looks stupid and bad. The guy gets money.

Jet Blue = low budget airline = low budget employees, in general.

To the American traveling public: You get what you pay for ....

The Flight Attendant (F/A) is/was a whiny bitch, regardless of gender choice.

More than 42% of male FA's are bitches.

All that is left (at least in the US) is 'Hags & Fags'....

 

[Schnugg]

At least he didn't stay in there for 2-3 years and fuse to the seat...

You don't fly interisland in Hawaii. Mostly young, good looking junior female FAs. The senior hags and the fags seem to like the international (mainland) flying - 8 to 10 legs a days is too much work for them.

But the last time I checked the FAA did not require FAs for boxes.....

For those that have Seen "IRON MAN" Stark Airlines set what should be the standard for US Airline stewardesses.

What a wuss! This guy should have had some dignity and told the captain to go screw himself.

At the very least he could have demanded free booze, and he woulda got it too. I mean drunk, in turbulence, and in an airliner lavatory...yeeehaw!

agreed, I believe the pole should be required equipment as well
