I see tons of HOT F College students in the F Cabin outta LAX all the time...(that plus I upgraded them at the gate by sneaking a peek at their BP and look at their seq # then talk to the GA about working QIK or let them in on the secret)

In the last year or so I have been on flights out of LAX with Carmine Electra and Darryl Hannah in first. A few years before that, Emma Samms. However, none of those were US.

Maybe you/your wife really should have filled out that USAir Visa application...
Seriously, I'm amazed they were even awake...I take the SFO-CLT red-eye regularly and often find the entire crew (who are there primarily for our safety) crashed out in the last row.

Yes, Carmine and Emma on UA, Darryl on AA. On the AA flight I was sort of dozing off in an aisle seat in business and woke up as she walked past headed from first to go to the business class bathroom. Talk about a startling way to wake up And yes, it really was here and I saw her when I was completely awake and walking through JFK.

I usually fly in shorts and a tee shirt coming home from DCA to FLL in FC. I dont turn any heads because its a tourist route and pple prob figure I am on vacation. My fav is when I wear crap like that going to DCA for the work week on the 7AM flight. All the other business people in suits look at me like who the hell is this. That is until they see I have a higher status then they do

This has been burning me up for awhile: I was standing behind a "young" guy at the US customer service booth in the DCA gates a few weeks ago. He was angry he didn't get upgraded when the flight had F open for upgrades. The CSR told him they don't don't upgrade people in "jeans, t-shirts and baseball hats." He had all three on. But when my wife and I got seated in F, I saw people with all 3 too. Granted, he wore his hat sideays and it didn't have a preppy Gap style. Is it all in how you wear it? I guess so.

Hmm, was I in DCA??? Nope, but sounds like my Friday commuting attire. I'll try to spruce it up a little more this week. I promise to turn my hat forward and tuck in my shoelaces.

Duh. Sorry, thats how we spell it on the turnip truck. Carmen Electra would be the correct way, however. It does seem that there was no doubt of who I meant. In order to eliminate any doubt, however, and to attone for my error, I have provided an image.

In summers, you'll often find me in F in shorts, flip flops, and a t-shirt. I dare any FA to say anything.

Why? I'm clean, polite, have superb personal hygiene, I don't pick at my feet, nor do I drink too much nor bug the person sitting next to me nor put my feet up on the wall. I'm a non-FTD CP and a model F passenger. If the guy in a suit next to me is insulted (or jealous) that I'm comfortable, that's his problem.
If it's 100 degrees outside then I feel no guilt for wearing an expensive pair of Reefs (> Tevas!!) into F. Would I do it after a day exercising or running on the beach? Of course not.
I'm from San Diego - flip flops are valid footwear.
