โA veteran flight attendantโs hilarious take on what really happens behind the scenes at 35,000 feet.โ โPeople
In her more than fifteen years as an airline flight attendant, Heather Poole has seen it all. Sheโs witnessed all manner of bad behavior at 35,000 feet and knows what it takes for a traveler to become the most hated passenger onboard. Sheโs slept in flight attendant crashpads in โCrew Gardens,โ Queensโsharing small bedrooms crammed with bunk beds with a parade of attractive women who come and go at all hours, prompting suspicious neighbors to jump to the very worst conclusions. Sheโs watched passengers and coworkers alike escorted off the planes by police. She can tell you why itโs a bad idea to fall for a pilot but can be a very good one (in her case) to date a business-class passenger. Heather knows everything about flying in a post-9/11 worldโand she knows what goes on behind the scenes, things the passengers would never dream.
Heatherโs true stories in Cruising Attitude are surprising, hilarious, sometimes outrageously incredibleโthe very juiciest of โgalley gossipโ delightfully intermingled with the eye-opening, unforgettable chronicle of her fascinating life in the sky.
