I'd rather work the more conventional side of that industry. Maybe combine the two and shoot a flick involving flight attendants.
Hmmm, Mrs. loopy would not be amused

Either way, you're gonna get screwed a few times at some point in either career path.
Your survey . . . are you asking about it from a line employee, management, or passenger point of view?

Anyone have a cigarette? This industry has screwed me real good lately.
Why do I do this?
Oh yeah, I have the addiction.

Hey Panama, will you be my sponsor?
We can grab a few pops after the meeting. I don't qualify for that 12 step program. Yet.

Actually, any airline that has inexpensive tickets to most big cities of the world. It also helps if you can upgrade to business or first with a twenty or a fifty USD bill. Been there, done that... By doing so you double the poor chap's salary for the month.

I like all the global major established airlines. They offer good and stable working conditions as well as good equipment to work with.

I agree, why put CDN North up if you're not going to put First Air in there....

I voted HMY. They hooked me up with some cheap passes to LAS, and there was no economy section. Nothing but first class. Everybody gets meals, wine, and hot towels.
I agree, if Canadian North gets put up, where is Air North and First Air?

Too bad they didn't pay a decent dollar (HMY) for there experienced drivers...what a shame, or it could be a good airline to work for. If you call 3 A/C an airline....dooooo
