What's wrong with this? Why hasn't an airline thought of charging a "pleasant atmosphere fee." I would gladly pay 50 extra bucks to have a hot stewardess (yes, I'm a sexist asshole) bring me my gin and tonic, instead of the usual battleaxe/george michaels usually handling the cabin.
Somewhere between getting sexually molested, free "plane crackers " and a small bag of peanuts served by said battleaxe, three screaming kids behind you, and two sweaty fat people on either side, the old mystique of flying commercial quickly disappears. I would easily pay 50 extra bucks to avoid at least a few of those.
Am I the only one when forced to choose my seating location online who thinks "where is the least likely place I'll end up next to fat people or kids and the most likely I'll end up next to an attractive female"? If so where would that be since I typically fail. At least with SW's self boarding/check-in you can game it enough to sit next to any talent that may be flying that day.
Is this a real thing or just something they talked about in Oceans 13?
Chicks I've known who work at places like that generally list their employment as "models" and since that title would be very optimistic in most of those cases, I would assume it's a relatively common position. That and I did a case study for a class about a lawsuit trying to end A&F's "discriminatory" hiring practices.
