Wondering why my flight attendants never look like this

[DerekJohnson]

I used to fly ANA (and Singapore Air) quite a bit from Dulles to Tokyo and Tokyo to Singapore. Some absolute top shelf talent with the Asian airlines. All women, not one of them over 35, all attractive and slender, and all dressed like geishas. Long haul business class is a dream with them. I also used to do a bunch of long haul with United. Differences could not be more stark. Not one attendant UNDER 40. In many convos with them mid flight in the galley area it appears that the primo schedules are the long haul schedules, and thus seniority rules, and thus they are full of crypt keepers. But they were always at least friendly in Polaris business on long hauls…even if the median age was 50+. Domestic US major air travel is the absolute worst experience ever. I always fly first because I have about a billion miles still, and it's still hot garbage.
One other plug. The Middle East airlines were even better than the Asian airlines. Emirates and Qatar get absolute top shelf Turkish women (I assume) and the service is exceptional.

A few years ago you texted me from a hotel lobby in Dubai saying that Bollywood was having some sort of festival there and I would have been a pig in slop from all the lovelies wandering about.

Dude you would have actually lost your mind. I think that trip was Doha, Qatar, but might have been Dubai. I was travelling and drinking a lot back then. lol. But yeah, basically all the A listers from Bollywood. So many hot chicks it was stupid.

Mumbai girls are really on another level the way California girls used to be.
It's the attitudes and mentality that suck but as far as looks go, holy smokes I met an inordinate number of girls that were 9's in that city.
