reviewed Plane Insanity: A Flight Attendant's Tales of Sex, Rage, and Queasiness at 30,000 Feet on January 19, 2016 Plane Insanity
I *loved* this book. It was passed on to me by another traveller this morning at JFK and it was one of those times I *really* wish I had pre-numbered labels as this could have been the perfect non-security area release--ie on to another passenger or in the plane's book rack--yes, Air Canada has them!
Some bits I liked:
-OK, I'm odd and I read the dedications and title pages and what not--this really struck me so I'm glad I did. Plane Insanity was written, edited and sent to press prior to the tragic events of September 11, 2001. As victims rest in peace, why can't we learn to live in it? So so true.
-"...air travel in its purest main-cabin form, is little more than public transportation. Greyhound at thirty thousand feet. Amtrak with wings." *Giggle* so so true, though I was pleasantly surprised by AirCanada. And because the long-haul flight was to and from Osaka, there is some innate courtesy in the Japanese and I didn't see/hear anyone behaving too badly.
A great laugh, especially while travelling cattle class, but I can say for sure I'd never want to be a flight attendant!
