18-30? Wake up redfred. Passengers may want to look at at 18 year old chickiee but when they board an aircraft and get a shaved head 14 stone 6'0 tall purser as I am they soon get a reality check.
The days of "Mandy" fly me are well and truly over and you know what I would rather fly on a aircraft as a passenger with a more mature crew then a bunch of young crew.
In fact the best flight I ever took was with TWA from New York to Washington when the average age of the crew was about 50.
Excellent service and I for one felt comfortable in the knowledge that if anything happened they would stay calm professional and in control.
