Should You Tip Your Flight Attendants?!

Ever wondered if you should be tipping your flight attendants? In this episode, we break down the complex world of in-flight tipping and gifting. We dive into what tipping means in our industry, the fine line between appreciation and expectation, and why a genuine "thank you" can go further than a $5 bill. We also share some of our favorite (and cringiest) experiences receiving treats, tips, and thoughtful surprises in the sky. We talk all things passenger courtesy, the psychology of gifting, and how the culture of tipping affects the airline world. Plus, Rich shares a wild layover story from a pilot friend in our “What Would Two Guys Do?” segment that had Drew in tears.

Rich: 0:00

You ever wondered what your flight attendants are really talking about behind the galley curtain? Welcome

Andrew: 0:06

to Two guys on a plane. Your go to podcast for an insider look at flight attendant life.

Rich: 0:11

We're your hosts, rich and Drew, and we're here to tell you what really goes on at 35,000 feet.

Andrew: 0:16

So sit back, relax. We're ready for takeoff.

Rich: 0:21

All right, everybody. Welcome back to two guys on a plane. We are so excited to be back in the studio. Today. We are going to talk about something fun. And this question is, should you tip your flight attendants? We get asked this question all the time because we have such a weird, unique job where it's like everything is kind of safety related, like 90% of what we do on the plane, though, you know, ends up being service related. So it's like you're a first responder, but you also just serve me a drink. Do I tip you? Is that insulting? Is it not insulting? So we wanted to talk about that along with gifts. We do often get treats and things from passengers, and those are very much appreciated, but they're not required. But people are always asking us, should I tip my flight attendants? Should I bring them gifts? What should I bring? If I do bring something, what will people like? What will people not like? Will people find useful? What will people not find useful? So we're going to dive into that a little bit today, and before we do that, though, Andrew, how's flying going for you? Lately,

Andrew: 1:22

flying has been super fun, good. Actually, I've had a few really good trips recently, and one really memorable one, we were overnighting, and I we had a reserve on our trip, first, very first trip, and she was so excited to be at work, which, oh, I love that. You know how it is you get on with somebody that's like, new and also really good at their job. It's so satisfying. Like, she was really good at her job. And, like, very inquisitive, asking questions, good energy. And, like, just brings up the whole energy of the plane. And then we get to her overnight, which is on an island, and she was so excited to be out and exploring. So we went out for dinner as a crew. There were like, three or four of us that, not the whole crew, but like three or four of us that went out to dinner, and it was just so fun. And then, you know, being the most senior, I don't know, I think you all have this tradition, but like, usually the senior, or someone senior pays for drinks and like,

Rich: 2:22

it is like an artificial rule. I feel like it's, it's nice to treat the new people when you can, because we were all broken and there at one point in our career. But

Andrew: 2:31

it was just so fun. She was like, she was so thankful for dinner or whatever. And she was like, I just, I'm so appreciative of all of this whole experience has been great. And I was like, I just, I know that you'll have the chance to, like, pass this along one day, like, I have no doubt she's gonna be a flight attendant for like, 30 years. She was so good at it. It was so refreshing.

Rich: 2:50

I love that. That is really refreshing. Because sometimes you fight with new people and you're like, Oh, you're just, how do you already hate this job? Yeah, they either already hate it, or it's like you're just not getting it like you're like, bare, bare minimum here, and you're just, you can't pull it together. I don't understand. I don't get it. Um, but, yeah, that's awesome that you had that experience. Yeah, it was really fun. How about you were sweet to her too? Yeah?

Andrew: 3:12

Well, I mean, I don't know why everybody thinks I'm such an asshole all the time, right? I'm really nice to

Rich: 3:17

people. Yeah, most, most, that's mostly true.

Andrew: 3:23

What about you? How's wait? You've been off?

Rich: 3:25

I have. I've had a few days off, which has been really nice. I made a quick trip up to Boston to see my mom, which was nice. She just got back from this like insane around the world adventure jealousy went on. I know, listen to this. My mom flew to Australia, visited friends that she met on a cruise randomly for a couple weeks in Brisbane, and then they flew to Sydney, and they took her around Sydney, and then she took a cruise all the way across the Pacific Ocean, stopping in like Fiji, Hawaii, all these islands, and then up to Seattle, and like she's gone for six weeks or something. I mean, so jealous. That sounds amazing, an explorer. Yes. Dora the Explorer, the Explorer. Judy the Explorer. So, yeah, so I went up to Boston to visit her, and thank God for jump seats and stuff like that, because non riving to and from Boston. It's either like flights are wide open or everything is completely oversold. And I was in the oversold category this time. And we know non revving, like first flight of the day is usually your best bet, but I could not bring myself to get on a 6am flight. I was like, I just can't do it. And I was looking at staff traveler, and I was checking flight loads my life say you're a lifesaver. If you guys don't have staff traveler, you need to download and it's free. Go to staff traveler.com/two, guys for the link to download to your phone. But it's a completely free app. You get flight loads. You can put in city pairings, you can add connections. You can do days and times and all these different things and check, you know, seat of availability, how many people are listed on standby. You know if there's first class seats open or not? First class. Seats open, and all that sort of stuff. And it's really great. And you can earn credits in the app by filling out, filling, fulfilling requests for your own airline about seat availability on flights for you. And then you earn credits that way. You can pay for credits too, if you really want to, but the best way to do it is you get free credits by answering and so the more people that are on the app, the better it works. It's seriously lifesaver. I don't know how many times we've been stuck in an airport, and you're like, do we have to check staff traveler? Like, who's got seats? Somebody's gonna have seats. And half the time, you'll search like, Philly, Boston, and there'll be some random airline, and you're like, I didn't even know they flew this route.

Andrew: 5:35

Or I don't know anyone at that airline to text to get exactly for sorry, friends I know like four in the morning. Sometimes I am used to but staff traveler has helped. I no longer text friends at four in the morning freaking out, being like, why are the lows?

Rich: 5:48

Staff traveler has definitely changed things, and I keep learning about new routes that I didn't know existed by using it. Sometimes I just randomly search routes, and I'm like, Oh, I didn't know you could go from here to here, right? So great, great tool, if you don't already, and they help sponsor our podcasts, and we could not make the show without them. So thank you. Download staff traveler today at staff traveler.com/two guys, and get the app today, we are going to talk about tipping your flight attendants. And this is definitely something that I feel like people like flight attendants have kind of strong opinions on like, some people really like it, some people, some people don't. How do you feel about that? Andrew, do you like tips? Do not like tips? I mean, sounds like a crazy question. Who doesn't want free money, right? Who doesn't love tips? Right? Right? Just the tip. Yeah. Sorry. I'll see for those of you watching on camera, yourself out right? For those of you watching on camera, I might be drinking some crew juice today, and it might be kicking in. You

Andrew: 6:49

know, I am torn on it, just like everyone else is. I don't mind receiving a tip when I know that I've done a good job, like you are during service and you're taking care of people. And, you know, I don't, I don't mind getting it, but I also definitely hear those people that think that we are safety professionals because we are, and feel that it, you know, cheapens our profession. And I get that too,

Rich: 7:12

yeah, yeah, I agree with that. I mean, it's some airlines allow tipping on their devices. Some are, it's a hard No, and then some airlines it's like, okay if you politely decline once or twice. And now it's becoming problematic that you don't accept their tip and they're annoyed. Just take the tip at that point. You know, you don't really tick off a customer who's trying to do something nice for you. Like that seems a little outrageous, but I definitely I have mixed feelings about it, too. I always feel like, some days it's like, I worked my ass off. And, you know what, if you want to slip me at 10, or it's 20 or whatever, like, that's great. Now I can buy lunch and, like, I don't have to stress. Like, it's kind of amazing. But then other days I am like, no, like, I had a medical once, and this guy, like, passed out, and then like, tipped me after, and I'm like, it's like, tipping your nurse like that. That's weird, right? I don't know. Wait, do people tip nurses? Nurses weigh in? I know a lot of like, dents or nurses.

Andrew: 8:10

It's a hard thing to to like, come to an answer for because as a society, we've become like, particularly here in America, we've become such

Rich: 8:20

tippers, yeah? Like, tipping culture in the US, definitely everywhere.

Andrew: 8:25

These days, you can't do anything, I mean, to go orders and people want tips for them. So, like, right? I understand tip fatigue, and I don't know, I don't know that there's a good answer for this one. I mean, like I said, I think if I've done a good job and throughout service, you were, you know, I came back to you and checked on you and like you felt like you got really good service. Like, I'm really okay with the tip personally, but I just, I don't know, I feel like tipping is a way for these large corporations to get around paying as what we deserve absolutely

Rich: 9:02

like, how about we just pay people a livable wage, right? There's no subsidizing your income with tips, because corporations don't want to pay their employees, right?

Andrew: 9:11

The CEOs aren't. CEOs aren't relying on tips. Yeah, you know, no,

Rich: 9:16

they're just relying on those million dollar bonuses that they get every quarter. Sucks to be there. So, yeah, if

Andrew: 9:21

you're sitting in a seat and you got really good service and you're like, you know what? You work fun and kind and like, go have a drink on me later. Like, tip away, yeah? But like, I don't think it needs to be something that becomes the norm in our industry. I would completely agree with that. So I'm I feel like there should be no hard rule that we can't accept them. I don't think there should be a hard rule that we like that's how we're subsidizing our pay by allowing you to accept them on your thing but on your tablets or whatever. But if you got really good service and you really liked the flight attendants or the flight crew that day, I don't see the difference between accepting a tip and accepting a $5 like star of. Gift card when you boarded the airplane. Like, there's no difference to me,

Rich: 10:03

no, totally. And I really, I think the tipping thing, like, if you're a passenger and you want to tip your your flight attendant because they were nice or whatever, like, go for it. That's fine. Just sometimes they're gonna say no, and sometimes you have to kind of push and be like, no, please take this in order for them to be able to and then sometimes it's just going to be a hard No, and that's okay too. Like, for me, it's all about the gesture. Yeah, you did something nice. You wanted to tip them if they say yes or no, that's on them, but it's not required, right? And don't feel like you have to same, because we are really there to take care of you, Safety Service and all of the above. The point is to get you from point A to point B safely and securely and comfortably, and so that's our job, and that's what we're paid to do, so no need to pay extra. But also, if you want to buy me a drink cleaner, you know what? Maybe that's okay. Maybe that's okay with me, but you mentioned Starbucks gift cards, and I feel like the tipping thing. We don't see super often, but we are seeing gifts more and more lately, like people wanting to treat us with like chocolates or Starbucks gift cards and things like that. How do you feel about that? Versus tipping?

Andrew: 11:11

They're both the same to me, like, honestly, I was having a conversation with a friend. Were you there? I don't remember if you were we having a conversation with a friend about this, but they were wondering if people were bringing gifts more to like, try to get things like get upgrades, or get free drinks or things like that.

Rich: 11:28

Someone commented on our YouTube, and they had mentioned how it seems like people are doing it more and more, expecting things in return, and like there's been too many tiktoks and viral blogs and things like that out there. I think that have kind of made it seem like, get your flight attendants a buck, like a box of chocolates and you'll drink for free. And it's like, no, no, we're not playing that game, like we take care of the people who treat us well, yeah, yes, for sure, but like, don't do anything expecting something in return. I just don't think that's how you should live life, let alone, you know, tips and treats

Andrew: 12:00

on planes, like, the coffee thing, like, you're on an early flight, you brought a Starbucks gift card because, you know, we don't get the time to get off the plane so much. Or, like, yeah, a cup of coffee is nice. Like, great. Appreciate that. Like, totally. Will it bring attention to you, to the flight attendant? Will we maybe pay more attention to you? Probably yes. But like, and I work a lot of vacation routes, and I always find it really nice if you're gonna bring candies or something. Like, I had somebody come on the other day, and she, like, brought wherever we were from, wherever we were going. It was, like, chocolate from that place. Oh, nice. And she was like, I know you always don't get off the plane, and I really love these. So I wanted to bring you a part of my vacation. And, like, that's just thoughtful. Like, I appreciate those kind of gifts,

Rich: 12:42

but it wasn't some generic candy. It was like a legitimate gesture through and correct,

Andrew: 12:47

yeah, and even with the Starbucks gift cards, I appreciate them. I love them a lot, yeah? But I had someone get on the plane the other day, and he was in line for coffee and grabbed one, like, four of those, like, canned coffee. Oh, yeah, that all of the places draft lattes, sure, but most places have some of those, some version of that now. And he brought like, three or four of those canned coffees for the crew that's and he was like, I so I was in line for coffee. Didn't know if you guys had time. So here's coffee for everyone. And we were like, was so

Rich: 13:17

sweet. That is really sweet. I had someone bring, like, a tray of just like black coffee zones, and I felt, Oh, I felt so bad because you're not drinking. We can't take that. Like, I don't know what you put in that coffee. And while you might seem like a sweet little old lady, I don't know if you had some eye drops in your purse and thought these flight attendants are gonna have the runs the day, right? Like, given the nature of our job, I know so bad when people are like, my No, no, made these for you and I'm like, Oh, that was so sweet. Yeah, I know I do feel bad, because there's certain things where it's like, I am going to politely accept this because I don't want to hurt your feelings. But we can't take open things or things that aren't pre packaged or just safety precaution. You know, that's the whole nature of our job. We can't always accept things like that.

Andrew: 15:11

Seen a shift recently, have you? The gifts aren't food so much. We're getting more like face masks and hand sanitizers and little packs of band aids and those sort of things. And I really love those kind of gifts a lot. I do too. I think it's just

Rich: 15:26

thoughtful to be like, Okay, maybe you don't want candy, maybe sanitizer would be helpful, or lip balm or something like that. Yeah, things like that are always just really nice gestures because they're useful. We're gonna put stuff like that in our bag and we're gonna use it, and we're gonna think, God, this passenger is great. Yeah, I got one of those hand sanitizers. They're, like, expensive. I can't they're refillable ones. I can't remember that the brand name now, but a passenger brought those for us. And I was like, Oh, nice. And my friend was like, those are, like, 20 bucks. And I was like, what? Right? They spent $100 on hand sanitizer. Are you free later? That's. Oh, just kidding, but yeah, no, I love those little thoughtful gestures that people do. And

Andrew: 16:07

if you're bringing it to say, thank you for being at work, or I know you've been at home, away from home for a long time, here's a little pick me up like we love those. But if you're doing it, and I promise, we can tell the difference, oh, we 100% Lee, can tell the difference whether you're bringing home because you're like, thanks for being here and being away from home and your family for four or five days, or I brought you this because I think you'll sneak me into a premium seat. Yeah, because we're I'm not doing it.

Rich: 16:34

I had a guy, literally, just so bold, gets on the plane with this bag of chocolate, and he goes, I'm in 7c or whatever. And we're like, oh, things like, that's so nice. And he goes, so do I get, like, a free drink or something? You get your candy back? Oh, that's exactly what I did. That's exactly what I did. I said, Oh, what a nice gesture. No. And I handed the candy back. And I was like, enjoy your flight. Drinks are $10 like, I just It's entitled. Are you doing this to be nice, or you're doing this to get something? And like you said, we can always tell, even if you're not that blatant about it, we can see right through it, like our job is literally to read people. We're really good at it, so don't try us. Right?

Andrew: 17:14

Yeah, I think it's all about delivery and what you do and who you give it to, and why you're giving it. But, yeah, food tips, I

Rich: 17:21

bring things to like, I always think I thank you for this, actually, because I used to bring chocolate, like, little lint truffles or something, because they're, like, individually wrapped, so they're easy to share among your crew. And then you were like, I'm not a huge, like, chocolate fan. And I remember being like, Huh? Like, because I've always loved chocolate, but you're right, so I always try to get a mixture of things. Like, if I do bring candy, I'll bring like, one thing that's chocolate, and then I'll get, like, Starburst, starbust, wow, Starburst, because they're individually wrapped, and again, they're easy to share among the crew. Like, stuff like that. I don't know, you don't really think about until you're on the receiving end of these gifts, and you're like, oh, wait, that actually makes a lot of sense, you know? Like, it's nice that people bring M M's and things, but then you're like, trying to figure out, Okay, do we divvy these up so all of our hands aren't like, in the same bag and and things like that. But yeah, I always, I try to think outside the box now, and I thank you for that for the most part, because I definitely was like, chocolate. Sure, cool, great. But there's other things out there that are there are really helpful.

Andrew: 18:20

Your chocolate is going to melt in the cubby by my coffee pot.

Rich: 18:24

That's the worst. Or you, like, put it near an oven or something, and you forget, and then it's just like, melted mess, delicious, but messy. But honestly, I, as much as I love the gifts and I love the tips, I just at the end of the day, like it goes so much further. If you're just a nice passenger, like, things you can do to make your flight attendants happy and get on our good side, that honestly will probably still get you a free drink or something. Is like, don't ignore us during boarding. We say, Hello, good morning. How are you nothing? You know, half the time you just get no response from people. And it's like, Do you know how annoying and like, hurtful it is to be ignored by 250 people, like in a row when you're trying really hard to be nice and create this, like, welcoming environment, and then to not get anything out of those people until they need you or want you for something, and they're poking you and they're asking for stuff. It's like, I know that's what we're there for, but at the end of the day, we're people, and if you treat us like people, we're going to treat you really well as a result. Because a lot of times we're not seen as like actual human beings by the airline or by passengers, honestly. Yeah. So things like that.

Andrew: 19:33

If you right, take your headphones off. Say good morning when you board the airplane. Yep. Take your headphones off. Pay attention when we're standing in the aisle doing the demo. Take your headphones off. Pay attention when we have the service card out. There are just very easy ways to make us your best friend, and most of it at these days involves taking your headphones off for

Rich: 19:56

a few seconds. Common courtesy, self respect. I mean, we shouldn't have to ask, What do you want to drink? Like 87 times, you know we're because we're not going to we're gonna move past you, and then they're gonna be mad that we skipped you or whatever. And it's like, just pay attention. Be aware of what's around you and what's happening.

Andrew: 20:14

And for this old lady, can you shout your drink order to me? Because between those overhead bins, like it is a cone of silence, don't realize that, right? Telling you in between, I'm telling all of you that are listening today that um, in between the overhead bins, it is a cone of silence up there. So like, if you're in the window seat, maybe yell at my old ears, because they've been on that airplane for a very long time, and I cannot hear you

Rich: 20:38

so true longer. I fly them around, like what I assume it's so bad, and like, the air is blowing in the bins, and like, you really can't hear anything. And I swear you ask someone to repeat something and get quieter. I don't know if this is something that should be studied. Like psychologists out there looking for something to study. Please study that. Like, can you repeat? Eat that louder, and then they whisper more. And I'm like, Girl, I can't help you. I think about, do you remember that scene in pitch perfect when the girl who's like, super quiet, she's like, I set fire to feel joy, like I that's like those passengers and like a Diet Coke. And I'm like, come on, spit it out. Say words. It always kills me.

Andrew: 21:23

Yeah, I I also love when they like, have the menus out, and they like point to things. I'm like, we're not looking at the same things. Words, please. Well, and they want to face

Rich: 21:36

the menu too. They're pointing one of these, one of these, and I want to be facing away from me. Yeah, tell me what's on the menu. I don't know. I'm proud of you for finding the menu Correct. They're

Andrew: 21:47

hidden most of the time in the back of a magazine or something. Thank you for finding it. Thank you for using it, but use your words, please.

Rich: 21:57

So that's pretty much it, you know. So don't feel like you have to tip your flight attendants. Don't feel like you have to bring us gifts, but if you decide you want to be nice to us, that'll really go a long way in the long run. So thanks for being good passengers, and we appreciate that. But before we go today, I think we should do a little story time in our what would two guys do series segment? So we have a really funny story today. You guys are gonna love this. I hear them blind with you. Rich does all the picking so that I can blind react to it, because I think it's fun. I think this is fun and this story, let me just start by saying it's from a pilot, and it's from a pilot I've flown with, and I love this man. He's a great guy, takes care of his crew, makes all the corny pilot jokes, but he's just like an all around, really great guy. And this story is funny. So this is from Steve in Philly. I mean, he there's 1000 states in Philly, so every Steve you meet asking the business story so they were on a DC layover. He said, back in my regional days, I flew a small jet that held about 50 passengers. The entire crew was just two pilots and one flight attendant, and we paper bid then, so we had all the same line for the entire month, unless you were able to trade with someone or called in sick, we were all together for pretty much the entire month. I was the fo back then, and I was paired up with a captain that I got along well with, and a flight attendant who was originally from Haiti. She was hilarious, had a potty mouth and didn't take attitude from anybody. Sounds about right? We were all LaGuardia based back then, and sometimes during the month, we found ourselves in one of our frequent DCA layovers. This is long before smartphones were things. So when we checked into the hotel, we'd write each other's room number on a key packet, just in case there was a delay or cancelation. Was nice being able to dial a crew member directly, instead of having to call the front desk and get transferred. I mean, I still do that, honestly. I need

Andrew: 23:55

you to pause for just a minute, because as a regional flight attendant, the story up until this part is so nostalgic for me. Oh, no,

Rich: 24:01

crew taking care of each other.

Unknown: 24:03

I miss my baby. Jazz, okay, continue.

Rich: 24:07

He said, anyway, we had a van time at the crack of dawn the morning after our DCA layover, the captain and I were waiting in the lobby, and our potty mouth flight attendant came charging off the elevator over to us and said, You are not gonna fucking believe this at 1am while I was fast asleep, a prostitute comes knocking at my door.

Unknown: 24:26

Let me

Rich: 24:27

repeat this, that 1am while I was fast asleep last night, a prostitute comes knocking at my door. You can't make this shit up.

Andrew: 24:39

Sorry, that was an awful story, good to do. Keep going. We're

Rich: 24:43

not even, or not even there yet. And she asked if I ordered her and I was like, I was like, what? That's crazy. I'm sure she continued to complain about it on the short van ride to the airport. And I'm sure I continued to be dumbfounded. We arrived at the airport, set up, the airplane, boarded, got underway. We got to cruise altitude, and the captain looks over at me and he says, so I have a confession to make. I nervously said, okay, he went on that prostitute last night that the flight attendant was talking about was for me when I called in to order her. That sounds awful. I guess I mistakenly looked at the flight attendants room number on my key packet and accidentally sent her to the wrong room. I was wondering why she never showed up. And it wasn't until this morning, when our flight attendant told us about the knock on her door that I realized what I'd done. I cracked up about this, but I had a million questions, because I wanted to know if this is a regular thing he did or what. And remember, we were all paired together for the rest of the month, so I had to keep this a secret. Well, until now, I'm sure, I'm sure the captain started checking the room number of his key packet a lot more closely after that, Steve, this is one of those situations where the title of our segment, what would two guys do? I. Have no idea I would have, would you inquired more from this captain? For

sure, I would have been, I would have been the same flight attendant lobby and been like, which one of you did this to me?

Rich: 26:11

Andrew: 26:16

order something she did? I thought she said. I thought he said, she did. Did you do this? Did you order her something like that? I thought that was a part of the story, which would have been the flight attendant I would have been. I would have had a lot of questions all day long, every time we landed and the flight deck door opened, I would have had a million

Rich: 26:32

No. He never said that to her. She never said that. She just was like, Can I believe this wild thing happened last night? I would have first person or what a question was the captain, and then the fo and then the fo finances. And

Andrew: 26:44

then every time I open the flight deck door, and every time we landed, I've been like, I know one of you is lying to me, and I'm gonna figure out which one,

Rich: 26:52

honestly I would mess with them every leg of that entire month, anytime the flight deck door open, I'd like to one of you ordered

Andrew: 26:59

me make like, a little out of napkins, and then, like, it's me, I'm here.
