That would be my Mrs :rolleyes:
Passes through T5 at least once a week and rarely uses the lounge.
How do I know :confused:
The credit card bill....
Its like she thinks we can get more BA miles by spending at BAA. I keep telling her there's an extra A, but that's still not stopped her... :o

Hi,

Why do not go into the general area ( outside the lounge) and invite a woman in!!:D ( problem partially solved)

TBS

I usually try to do this in EDI, where the gate is next to the lounge: on my way to the lounge, I divert through the seated throng at the gate and look for a singleton pax presentable enough to invite in as a guest. I suppose that in the back of my mind I feel that one good turn deserves another, and that on my next long-haul ,I will be whisked up a class by a kindly soul...

As one who bats for the other team, can I say we have standards. It is quality not the quantity that matters. The quality is often lacking in the lounge and guys do not tend to show a lot of leg.

Hear hear! Grumpy, drunk, DYKWIA's are NOT attractive, and god knows there are enough of those skulking around.

As for legs... I think a well-cut suit or jeans that fit well is fab^ A bit of chest with 3 shirt buttons open doesn't hurt either!^^

BEST eye candy I ever saw at an airport was at SFO when these two LH F pax (they exuded this unmistakable 'west indian' air) in suits so sharp you can cut diamonds with them strolled by on their way to the gate. EVERYONE - m and f - in my queue turned and stared I kid you not.

As for the crew... ORD is a great place to glimpse some smoking (fig.!) pilots (usually the first officer as far as I noticed).

In the cabin we check the f/a's out too... how some of them strut up and down the aisle!:eek::D

Was traveling domestic and flight departed from A3 as expected so the walk to Galleries South would have been a real pain in the arse.

I must admit, 5mins before leaving the lounge, this hot little thing with two legs and a skirt only slightly longer than my boxer shorts came and sat down diagonally across from me. I was able to close my eyes for a moment and picture a scene which brought more than a smile to me during my flight. :D

Right, heading into Edinburgh now to see if there's any talent hidden around the castle.:p

What are the best ways for recognising a fellow FT-er? The bright yellow FT luggage tag comes to mind but that just doesn't look right on my stylish Italian carry on bag. Any other ways?

And then coming back up to the front, for a second look.

And then sending a crewmate up, to give a second opinion.

Don't think we don't notice. ;)


Out of interest, what's everyone else's experience? I find that BA crews flirt less than other airlines.

FA1 - In his usual place, 1C
FA2 - Look after me trolley love till I go and get a look at him,I'm dying to see what he looks like.
FA1 - Yeah no bother, but don't make it look too obvious will you.
FA2 - Don't worry, I'll pretend to ask him about his special meal...................................

FA1 - Well.....did you see him?
FA2 - Yeah!!
FA1 - And?
FA2 - He's not what I expected!!
FA1 - And what were you expecting?
FA2 - I don't really know...somebody fatter and maturer I think.
FA1 - Fatter and maturer?....You make it sound as if you were expecting to see a Vietnamese potbelly pig.
FA2 - Plus....he's a bit odd
FA1 - What do you mean a bit odd?
FA2 - Well, when I asked him if he wanted the special meal he said...Oh yes I'll have the usual dollop of unidentifiable goo please.
FA1 - Ah yes......that's him alright, always the joker.
FA2 - There's something else strange about him.
FA1 - Really?
FA2 - Yes
FA1 - Well, go on tell me then.
FA2 - He said he was rather disappointed that the shaky armrest had been fixed and the wet floor was no more as he had got a fair bit of mileage out of telling that story...........Oh, and before I left he asked me if I knew what his CIV score was.
FA1 - Is he on about that again I only told him last week...so did you tell him?
FA2 - I told him I didn't know anything about football results.
FA1 - Oh my God :rolleyes: That'll be in Flyertalk tomorrow.....you'll see.


FA3 - I see that Smirnoff bloke is in 1C?
FA1+2 - Yeah we know, what's he up to now?
FA3 - He says he wants a kiss and a cuddle from us all on the way out and he's not leaving till we give it him.
FA1+2 - :rolleyes::rolleyes:

:D:D:D

Bet Smirny's not speaking to you now HIDDY ;)

It looks like HIDDY is giving PUCCI GALORE a run for her money with his new incarnation of TFTG.
