Flight attendants

[GIVSP]

Looking to see who is using flight attendants. Part 91 only. Falcon 2000 size airplane and up. Why and why not. Mature responses please. Thanks

We use FA's on 91 flights as per request of owner.

F/A's

Netjets use's F/A's on all of our Falcon, and Gulfstream aircraft. Some F/A's are better than others for obvious reasons. They can also make or break the flight.

Remember, its based on customer service.

Mature responses? ...lol.

Anyhow..Yes, Part 91. One full time F/A for one Falcon.

Our people are food people, no way would Rudys type stuff fly. She plans, shops, cooks etc. She also does hotels, tracks AC Emergency items (AEDs, Med kits, etc) and arranges for our Medaire training. Aside from the Safety aspect of having her there she takes incredible care of our pax - from food to faxes to flowers, from making beds to straightening ties...a good F/A makes you look good.

Keep in mind there's a HUGE diff between a strong F/A and a nice rack. I'm all for both of course...but just prefer the non-headache highly professional one on the plane I have to fly. No drama on the road, no drinking problems, boyfriend problems, not another F'n opinion on how to run a trip. Picking your F/A is critical.

You will pay for a decent one...easily over 100K...but aside from the safety and service benefit, we save a fortune on catering as she shops and is very conscious of costs. Has food connections all over the world (not airport catering) I'd estimate we would easily spend 30K+ more a year on overpriced mediocre menu catering without her.

Good Luck.

That's the sad truth! I should get into the airline catering world.

No flight attendants for us. The bosses like to take care of themselves.

We have one(from a group), every live leg. 2000EZ. Makes life easy for pax, and a handful for us.

Previous employer didn't use one unless there was a large pax count. The owners wanted to be left alone and could make their own sandwiches or had a PA along to do so.

A good FA is WONDERFUL. A mediocre or worse is a nightmare.

Almost always on the 7X, almost never on the '2000.

You got that right!
