Today's bonus episode is fun little chat between Ally Murphy and Dan, both ex cabin crew who gave extensive stories from their days flying the skies. In this bonus episode, we talk about seeing ghosts on the plane, and the many times we've caught passengers enjoying their flight a little too much.... Would you join the Mile High Club? Have you? Have you got a great story to tell and would love to come tell us all about it?!

In today's bonus episode, we talk to army veteran Eric Herrera, author of A Bomb Hunter's Story which is available on Amazon.
We talk a lot about the journeys of the cabin crew and pilots, but there hundreds of different reasons why the passengers are taking that flight. As a flight attendant I loved to find out their why!
Eric got to fly in and out of war zones on commercial flights, and enjoy the highs and lows of flying under strange circumstances. Today, we hear his story.
We highly recommend Eric's book, A Bomb Hunter's Story. A fascinating read that gives us a glimpse into a very different life.

Hit by a Truck
The Red Eye
07/09/24 • 27 min
This has got to be one of the funniest true stories we've had to date! The tale of a flight attendant, on a layover in Japan. Where karaoke, toxically strong drinks and flight crews from all over the world collide!
Hear about the magical land of Narita. Famous for it's karaoke and influx of flight crews. Jet lag means the crew are full of energy at night and it frequently ends in chaos! But this story ends in a way that no one was expecting...

This story is another of my own... and not one I'm hugely proud of!
The trouble is, when I'm surrounded by a group of fun flight attendants, in an exotic location, and we've had a few drinks, I get carried away and usually end up causing mischief! So when I found myself in Las Vegas with a very fun crew on a layover, I ended up causing myself some trouble that cost me a few months of my flying career!

Warning - this episode contains a story about severe turbulence and injuries on board. This could be upsetting to those with a fear of flying.
Occurrences of severe turbulence are thankfully rare. But surprisingly, the landing into Sydney can get quite bumpy and has been given the nickname "The Kangaroo Route", due to the jumping nature of the approach.
In todays episode, we follow 4 different crew members as they experience the worst turbulence of their careers. How will it affect the crew and their passengers?

Today's episode is the story of our narrator and producer Ally! A sliding doors story, one that is told whenever anyone asks Ally how she became a voice actor, why she left flying, or if she believes in following your gut instincts. Especially when the universe is giving you huge flashing signs!

The Boy's Club
The Red Eye
06/11/24 • 25 min
It used to be that you only gave the job to man. Even if that man had no clue what he was doing!
On today's episode of The Red Eye, we go back to the 90's to tell the true story of a brand new cabin crew member who was accidentally left in charge of the Boeing 747 flight deck. We learn that the rules in the aviation industry were definitely a little looser back then, and some of the old boys were very stuck in their ways....

Learning to work around cultural differences is a big part of the job as cabin crew. When you meet passengers from all over the world in your job, you learn how different and diverse the human race is!
But it can lead to confusion as well... both for the passengers and the flight attendants!

A Pilot's Perspective
The Red Eye
02/18/25 • 24 min
During the flight, most flight attendants love to visit the flight deck. They get to see the world from a different perspective and chat to pilots. They get to see the pilots at work, reading maps, twiddling knobs and chatting to the ground. It's fascinating! Even if most of us don't understand what they are doing. But it's rare for the pilots to see the cabin crew in action when things go wrong, as they are usually in the flight deck dealing with the important task of landing the aircraft safely.
When this pilot donated this story, we found it so interesting to see it from his perspective. A medical emergency is not something any of us want to experience.
