My experience of United flight attendants is that they remind me more of Nora Batty than Roz Hanby.
On a South West flight a few weeks ago the senior cabin attendant introduced the crew saying the pilots were old enough to be her grandchildren .... which got a PA from the flight deck of "Sit down at the back gramma coz this Boeing is going".
I guess when I was younger I migght have aspired to the hostie, now it's about the service. I'll look forward to Pan-Am when it arrives .. if only for the footage of the 707s.
