Two Guys on a Plane

Threads is our favorite social media platform right now! Why? Because we're able to share our most unhinged thoughts there…and apparently, they are very relatable! 
Join the conversation on Threads!
We recently posted a poll on Threads and asked our audience, “Flight attendants, what is the most jaw-dropping thing you’ve ever seen a passenger do?” Surprisingly, we got a ton of interesting responses, and they didn’t disappoint. From sudden outfit changes to a tin foil hat, it’s like the wild experiences on the plane never stop!
Watch us react to these jaw-dropping flight attendant experiences, share our own crazy experiences, and give some updates about our flight life.
Feel free to share your crazy airplane experiences or unbelievable passenger moments in our Galley Gossip segment!

How do flight attendants balance raising a family with an unpredictable flying schedule? And what is it really like to work at 35,000 feet while pregnant? Our guest this week, Brittney, shares her firsthand experience as someone who’s living both lives — flight attendant and mom — and she’s not holding anything back!
From working flights while pregnant (yes, it’s as intense as it sounds) to the reality of airline policies, she breaks down what actually happens behind-the-scenes and what most people don’t realize.
We also get into the hot topic everyone has opinions on: kids on planes. After years of seeing it all as crew, her perspective has completely changed now that she’s a parent, and it might change yours too. Brittney shares some of her best travel tips for traveling with kids on planes.
Plus, we talk about the emotional side of balancing this career with motherhood, the schedule chaos, the guilt, the support systems, and what it actually takes to make this lifestyle work with a kid at home.
And of course, we lighten things up with “Carry-On or Check It?” (A new segment!) and “Crosschecked!”, our always popular lightning round to close it out.
If you’ve ever flown with a kid, traveled while pregnant, or wondered how flight attendants manage a life outside the plane, this is one you don’t want to miss!

We’re switching things up and having some fun today—because honestly, sometimes you just need to laugh about the chaos that comes with this job. We’re diving into an aviation-themed game of “Would You Rather,” and let’s just say… some of these choices had us questioning everything from our travel habits to our sanity. From standby wins to airport meltdowns, we’re breaking down the realities of life in the sky in the most unfiltered way possible.
Along the way, we’re talking about flying in bad weather, the people who text us like we control the airline, and the little travel quirks we’ve picked up over time. If you’ve ever wondered what flight attendants really think about turbulence, crying babies, or sprinting through the airport—this one’s for you.

As flight attendants, we learn so much during our new hire training and yet… there’s so much they don’t teach you! In this episode, we’re getting real about the stuff you only learn once you’re actually out there flying. From the chaos of adjusting to the lifestyle to the small habits that can make or break your experience, we’re sharing the advice we wish we had—and the advice you all brought to the table.
We dive into everything from protecting your peace (and your sleep), to navigating crew dynamics, to the little survival tricks that keep you sane at 35,000 feet. Whether you’re brand new to the job or years in and still learning, this conversation is packed with honest, hilarious, and surprisingly practical insights you won’t hear in training.
