Stewardess working on B777, B787, A319, A320, A321 & A380. Previously worked on B737, B747, B757, B767 & MD83. Flying the world is not a job 🌍 My own views ✈️
After the first service, on long haul flights there's no need for the whole crew to remain on duty, as customers go to sleep, work or just chill with the inflight entertainment.
So half of the crew go to rest.
This is a legal requirement to try to minimize the fatigue & to allow

No es porque lo haya hecho yo, pero como mola el vídeo 😎
After 21 months without working on the

, all cabin crew get one day "A380 Familiarisation Course" rostered.
Finally my day arrived, and that's precisely what I'm doing today! 🥰✈️
October 27th, it’s my Birthday 🎂
The good news is that my job brings me to Seychelles 🇸🇨
After a longish night-flight, we leave the rain & the grey skies of London behind, to get a much nicer views at this end with glorious blue skies.

After 22 years of flying with you sharing numerous adventures together, sadly it’s time for you to go 💔😥
I will always miss you lots, but in my heart I’m very grateful for all the happiness you brought into my life.
My favourite aircraft forever.
Personal farewell.

knows about the importance of cabin crew being well rested, and alert in order to react promptly & effectively in case of any type of emergency.
With that in mind, they have created this cosy & comfortable Cabin Crew Rest Area, fitted with 12 bunk-beds.

Imagine flying and working on these beautiful machines for 20 years...And then having to say Goodbye to them; It’s nothing but painful...! ✈️💔

Due to my employer's latest social media guidelines, I will not be able to post any work related photos.
Be prepared to see posts about my shoe collection, crockery, glassware and handbags 😆😉
We were a bit delayed, so I did a video of the

The interior layout and configuration are going to be modified in the near future.
But for now, this is how it looks..! ✈️☺️

Happy Flying ❤️✈️❤️
Tomorrow is my birthday 🎂 🎁 🍾🥂(27/10)and in less than an hour, it will be already in Spain 🎉🎈🎊
But here in California it’s only 15:10 in the afternoon which means I’ll be flying on my B-day this year, as I’ll be landing tomorrow in London.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME..!
And back to London with 32tons of PPE, for the UK.
17 of those tons traveling upstairs in the converted passenger cabins.
Images from my freighter flight, on 4th December.

It was a great experience flying on G-YMMK, one of the two
#BritishAirways
#B777s
converted into freighter aircraft. All passenger seats have been removed except in First Class, and today we brought 32 tons of PPE from China.
In the pax cabin 17 of those tons!

Not long ago there was an aircraft that could fly you from London to New York in 3 hours.
And because of the 5 hours difference between NY & London, you could arrive at destination, at an earlier hour that you left the UK 😉
Still not replaced...!! ✈️🚀

Celebrating my 29th anniversary flying as cabin crew.
Spanair, Futura & the last 21 years flying for

Different companies, different uniforms & many aircraft types.
Many suitcases after, still the same person, same spirit, same illusion😉
Today I'm flying to
#SanFrancisco
as a passenger on the
#A380
, as a part of a full positioning crew.
We'll be going from SFO to San Jose, to bring back in 2 days the SJC-LHR, as
#BA
is resuming this route from LHR.
In January it gets wet & grey in London, and with that in mind, I requested a flight to
#Seychelles
in search of the sun rays ☀️& warmer temperatures.
Although now it’s the rainy season due to the northwest monsoon, it’s really hot and sunny today.

Good morning..! ☕️✈️😃

Would you like to visit? And if you have been here before tell me what did you like most about this amazing place... 🤩
For me I think it was the

& the vintage uniforms’ collection.
Stunning views yesterday when flying over Canada 🇨🇦 whilst en route to Denver, Colorado 🇺🇸
The moon is visible from the right hand side of the aircraft and the sun from the left at the same time.

It's great to take inflight-pics again featuring double engine aspect, and night arrival into Dubai.
I just got a flight to

from standby.
Onboard an excellent team of 22 cabin crew & 2 pilots.
We come back on Friday 😎

We are on G-XLEB, but since she's parked at the very end, and not visible, I rather share this pic of G-XLEG! 😎
Happy Wednesday!
When Roberto prepares lovely iced lattes for the night-flight..!🥰❤️😃😋
Excuse us for not wearing our masks 😷 but of course we are allowed to take them off when eating or drinking ☕️in the galley!
Back in London and the sun ☀️ is out.
Have a great Bank Holiday Weekend 😊
Good morning from Canada 🇨🇦 Today is a special day for me, as May 7th marks my 31st anniversary working as cabin crew.
Time just went so fast since my first flight 31years ago in 1990.
If I could go back in time I wouldn’t change a thing, & I would apply to do the same job again
I was looking forward to my 30th anniversary working as cabin crew.
Sadly this year I cannot celebrate flying.
The future is uncertain, but whatever happens, it will never be the same again, or not for a long time.

in 2hours, 52minutes & 59seconds.
Hitting a top speed of 1,350mph, & flown by Captain Leslie Scott, Senior F/O Tim Orchard & Senior Engineering Officer Rick Eades
After nearly 4 & a half months without flying, finally got notification of end of furlough period the other week.
Back to work on Friday ✈️
Glad to get a bit of normality & rutine in my life again.
Went to the loft to “get reunited” with some items that were nearly forgotten 🧳👜

19 February, in 1982, the first
@Boeing
#B757
prototype, took to the skies on its maiden flight.
Originally designed to replace the

With orders placed by
Oh dear! It's only 08:23 in the morning and I have already flown to

Now back to Heathrow and then we fly to

for the rest of the day & night!
Good morning from

And this is what happens when we get rostered a 'positioning flight'👇
We fly as a passenger to be positioned to a different station from which we are going to operate a flight as crew.
So like any other pax, we can sit back, relax & enjoy BA hospitality 🤩
#workingbutnotworking
Hard to believe we won’t see this beautiful machine in the skies again.
Already miss her, that unique silhouette, her sound, her elegance; no other aircraft can really compare.
In memoriam ❤️✈️
Very happy to be flying back to

Haven’t been there for a whole year.

Ladies & Gentleman,
Welcome to a different flight!
This is a cargo flight, and the
#B777
has been converted into a freighter aircraft.
With no passengers & still no cargo in the cabin the best is to get comfy for the long flight, and wear a tracksuit or fleece jacket as it’s cold
I never thought I’ll be tweeting this, but tomorrow I start a conversion course to the A320 baby bus family.
Of course my preference is long haul and working on big birds; but after all it’s happening in the world, I’m just happy to keep my job & carry on flying.
I’m a positive
A very Merry Christmas 🎄 to you all, wishing you happiness and health with these beautiful images of the

Have you ever flown on an empty aircraft?
I took this video of a flight to
#NewYork
at the beginning of May 2021.
No passengers & no cargo on the pax cabin on that occasion,(only cargo in the hold).However sometimes 2 cabin crew were also rostered on these type of flights.
