memoRable moMents as @ "cabin princess"

any idea wat "cabin princess" is?!

some might associate it as glamour, while some juz plainly says waitressing on air...
c'mon, is tat all u can think of?! no doubt, serving meals and coffee / tea seems easy onboard but their main role is to ensures the safety and comfort of passengers onboard a plane that soared up between 30,ooo ft above sea level or so...

and i can tell u tat, goin thru the training part, such as jumping out of the mock-up aircraft on land or sea, passing 1st aid theory & memorizing onboard service procedures by heart, is not an easy task mate!!

my "glamour" life began since the millenium year. the best part is, i graduted during the period when my company met their 1st fatal crash in Taiwan. geez...wat a supporting news to a new career of mine eh?!

as an ex"cabin princess", tats the only time when i travelled like nobody's biz =P would luv to share an occasion when i met tis little fella onboard who makes my day ^-^

tis little fella is a pilot wannabe as it's obvious if u notice the aircrew badges stickers on his shirt...initially he was shy on conversation, but when u start asking him questions bout his badges...he starts to talk non-stop!! hehe.. (too bad tat can't recall his name dy =P)

his dad always travels ard for work, while his mom will usually bring her 2 kids to fly over and meet up. the interesting part is, mommy dearest will alwys make him a scrapbook to record down all his journey's details. too bad tat i can't show u the book's pics...it kinda amazed me in da 1st place...i mean the details in da scrapbook. =)

imagine...he's only 4, and he needs to fill in the details like - flt destination, distance to destination, flt altitude, aircraft type he's flying, who's the captain of his flt, who's the crew who serves him on board (of course i'm the 1st who filled in *blekk*) & the list go on n on for few pages...whoaaa....*salut to mommy !!*

since last time is not an issue to bring passengers to cockpit and hav a look, i brought him to meet the pilot. they ended up talking happily and captain was quite amazed with his scrapbook too...alwys reminds myself of doing a scrapbook tat relates to my trips, wonder when only i'll start *blekkk*
