  • Confront or comment directly to the grumpy FA about their grumpy attitude
  • Make a passive-agressive comment to the grumpy FA as a way to point out their grumpyness
  • Smile and be extra pleasant to the grumpy FA in the hope they become aware of their grumpy attitude and change it
  • Be grumpy, unsmiling and unacknowledging back to the grumpy FA
  • Comment about the grumpy FA to other FAs
  • Comment about the grumpy FA to seatmates who are not your travel companions
  • During the flight, request and fill a complaint-form (is there a more specific name for this form ?), and hand it back to crew
  • After the flight complain to the airline's about the grumpy FA, with or without expectation of a compensation
  • Put on your headphones, avoid interacting or making eye contact with the grumpy FA
  • Do you handle the grumpy FA in another way ?

Does the presence of a grumpy FA considerably ruin your enjoyment of the flight or trip ?
Hello, Please and Thank You, usually go a long way when faced with FA grumpiness. If not, just move along and don't change your attitude.
