Loss of Pressure
I have a very serious question:
My wife is a FA for and airline that flies 50 seaters. As they were taking off today there was a loud whistle in the cabin. She called the flight deck to tell them and they said that they could hear it too. After getting some info it was determined that it was probably the door seal. The CA said that the pressure doesn't look "too bad" so they would continue on and to let him know if anything changed. By the time she got up to make her announcement her words were slured and she could barley get through it. She started feeling extremely sick and upon landing had to go lay down. She is now in the hotel with a severe headache and still feeling sick.
My question, could this have been a loss of pressure in the cabin?
What else should/could she have done to make the pilots understand they could be serious?
Should she notify anyone that this happened?
At the time she says that she did not even think of hypoxia but now that she is at the hotel and can think back she is wondering if it could be. She does not think that the CA acted wrong in anyway because she did not tell him she was sick until they were back on the ground (again she did not connect the two).
So what do ya think!
