I am curious as to how the contestants managed to get BAA airside passes, how did they manage to find anyone who knew what they have been doing for the last 5 years?

I have every respect for CC and the job they do, but some of the posts here do smack of having your cake and eating it. One minute it's a nightmare job compared to waitressing in TGI Fridays, the next you're taking helicopter trips in Rio (while being paid to be there) which a waitress is unlikely to be able to ever afford.

All jobs have their good and bad points, it's up to the individual to decide what things are important to them and make an appropriate decision. You've decided chavs in economy are worth it for exotic locations - fair enough. As for being a terrorist target, you should check the news to see that plenty of other people are as well.

I don't think it's a case of having my cake and eating it I think its more a case of damned if I do and damned if I don't.

If I take offence at being cast as some sort of bean brained coffee monkey working for £5.00 an hour at Air Chav-tastic and I try to balance that stereotype with some of the better aspects of the job then suddenly I'm frittering £50 notes away on a fiesta of private air charter in Rio.

My job isn't all hellish 17 hour days filled with vomiting babies, combative chavs or the fundamentalist in 13k trying to light his shoelaces... but then neither is it one long champagne filled gad around the planet at the employers expense. The truth, as is so often the case is somewhere between these two extremes.

As for being number one on the terrorists hit list - well maybe not - the fact still remains we are on that list as September 11th, the liquid bomb plot and countless other hijackings over the years testify to.

Had to laugh at Mr.Mario and Mr.Lisa when they got on. Moaning that they would be seated in 'Showbiz' class with everything else etc. I just Luaghed because when he said 'celeb air first class am crammed into this seat' i thought where is a PROPER cabin crew memeber to go
"Love you flying monarch, we have the same seating pitch throughout the aircraft unless seated at an Emergency Exit. If you want us to wait you on hand and foot, fly someone like British Airways, am sure you can offord that with the amount of money you made-oh i forgot your a z-lister anyway now"

Chico doing have a Shift that is scandless,but what is more that none of the mentors/ee's as they were both on came out to help her. Am sure if one you EZY crew fell ill while down time in TFS, they would do there best to keep her out of public eye, and they helpp out as on a A320 there wouldbe only 2 of them. Anyway, i like the programme just it has it faults.

Another thing that made me laugh is when Dan left and he said 'Oh i respect the Cabin Crew for what they do know'. Hang on so do i but surley the flight crew and under more pressure than the Cabin Crew.

The show is about the 'celebs' being cabin crew not flight deck. So why would he involve them in his comment. Not as if he had a quick go at flying the aircraft for 1 sector!? Anyway? Have you ever been cabin crew? You don't know what it's like, both jobs are demanding but in different ways.

The 'celebs' were put on board the aircraft as extra crew so it doesn't matter if they fly with 1 celebrity only. The show wouldn't be very entertaining if you were watching the mentors do everything for them!
