I was searching the internet this morning hoping for blog inspiration when I happened upon a blog on the website Gadling. The blog, “Galley Gossip“, is written by Heather Poole, a flight attendant for an unnamed U.S. carrier. I was directed to the site from a link off my homepage about flight attendants’ biggest pet peeves. Poole uses the blog to recount her tales of asking passengers 2, 3 or more times if they would like something to drink before the passenger removes the headphones and pays attention! I, personally, am always paying attention when the food and drink carts are coming down the aisles towards me! I perused the site and read Poole’s other blogs. As a new blogger to the site, she has only written three, but they were very enjoyable. She writes in a funny, biting style and recounts tales with a dry sense of humor. I enjoyed reading about her thoughts when someone called her “Sandvich Girl“! It is definitely a blog worth checking out – especially for the frequent traveler. Now, you can figure out what the flight attendants are really thinking. And, in case you missed it, I also offer a behind the scenes look at flight attendants in our June issue. Read all about my experiences at Korean Air flight attendant training school! The website also offers a blog “The Cockpit Chronicles” by Kent Wien, a pilot. An interesting blog by Grant Martin posted on the site was all about Air India’s refusals to hire overweight flight crew. All in all, the site is filled with interesting blogs covering all facets of the travel industry. Along with Global Traveler‘s blog, this is a must-visit blog site for travel fanatics! -Kimberly Krol, circulation and public relations executive
