Jet lag—it’s that relentless travel companion we never asked for but always seem to bring along. In this episode, we’re unpacking the reality of jet lag from the flight attendant perspective: what works, what totally doesn’t, and the hilarious and horrifying travel stories we’ve collected along the way. Whether you’re someone who swears by strategic napping or you’re just trying to make it to the Airbnb without puking into a canal (hi, Amsterdam), this one’s for you.

We’re also diving into TikTok travel trends, influencer airport fails, and the magic of “cart chemistry” on long-haul flights. Plus, we’re dishing out the best jet lag tips we’ve got—from hydration hacks to buffer day brilliance—and, of course, sharing one outrageous galley gossip tale involving a mystery mouse. Grab your melatonin (or maybe don’t), and buckle up for a brutally honest, laugh-out-loud episode that proves no one is immune to the jet lag struggle.
