In this episode, we’re sharing the story that started it all leading us to a life at 35,000 feet. We’re rewinding the clock and taking you through our very first steps into the world of aviation. From spotting a newspaper ad to late-night wine-fueled job applications, our journeys to the jump seat couldn’t have been more different—but they both led us to a career we absolutely love.

If you’ve ever been curious about the real-life process behind becoming a flight attendant—or thought it was just about slinging drinks in the sky—this one’s for you. We’re peeling back the curtain on the interview process, training challenges, and all the reasons why we still can’t get enough of this high-flying lifestyle. Whether you’re thinking of joining the skies or just love a good origin story, come along for the ride.
