You ever wondered what your flight attendants are really talking about behind the galley curtain? Welcome to Two guys on a plane. Your go to podcast for an insider look at flight attendant life. 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. Welcome back friends to two guys on a plane today, we are talking about layover life. Are you a slam clicker, or are you out enjoying your layover?

Rich: 0:31

Mom, if you're listening, slam clicker is a flight attendant or pilot who gets to their hotel room on a layover, slams the door shut, clicks the lock and you will not see them again until van time the next morning. So we're going to talk today about what kind of flight attendants we are,

Andrew: 0:49

yeah, but before we do that, how was your week of flying? Rich?

Rich: 0:53

My week of flying was chaotic. To say the least. Passengers on my last couple little trips have just not had the most patience. They are kind of losing it a little bit on me, and I'm losing it on them as a result, which is maybe gonna come back to me in a letter at some point, but I don't remember ours even flying, because sometimes it all blends together. Always blends together. Air traffic shut down recently in Puerto Rico, and that shut down Miami, and so basically everywhere, kind of over the Caribbean, was like, shut down. Air traffic had a radar issue, and flights were kind of, you know, people weren't knowing, like, what was what, and everything kind of slowed down. And we ended up getting stuck for a little while on the ground. But it was one of those situations where it was like, Okay, we're gonna go back to the gate. Okay. No, we're not okay. We're gonna deplane everybody. Okay. No, we're not okay. We're gonna board. Okay, no, we're not and so, like, it was like a two hour period of just uncertainty, and that sort of thing is frustrating, I think, for passengers and for crew members, because it's like, what's happening, and we don't really know right in those situations. So people like, why can't we have drinks? Or, why can't we do this? And it's like people were just getting mad about it. And I'm like, with everything going on in aviation lately, like, I am glad they pause things. Yeah, if there's a radar issue and they don't know where planes are, stop, like, stop flying like I don't like, pause and take a minute and let aviation figure itself out before we go into circumstances that might be unsafe. So, but people were not the most understanding about that. I mean, I hate those days. I just had people chewing me out for things left and right, and I'm like, I didn't do this. Right? That part. Do you want me to be nice to you on the next four and a half hours? Or do you

Andrew: 2:45

want me to do during any sort of anything on an airplane, is make be a flight attendant, your enemy. It's not our fault. We didn't do this. Just slow down, pay attention, and let's all get along Exactly. I'm sorry you had a rough week. It's no fun for anyone.

Unknown: 2:59

There's good weeks and there's bad weeks, yeah? And that's just part of virtual attendant life, yeah? Well, it still sucks to hear that you had a rough week, so I'm sorry for that,

Rich: 3:11

but luckily, I did have some good layovers, which I always and that's what we're talking about. And it makes me really happy when you have good trips with good layovers and good crews, because sometimes you end up with those trips where it's like, you have the greatest layover, like you could be in Paris and be like, this should be the time of my life, but you're just with a miserable crew. And I mean, solo layovers are fun too, but like, sometimes it's just a little chaotic and it's like, what do you want? Do you want the good layover with the bad crew? Or do you want the good crew with the bad layover? Right? Or whatever the case may be, I don't think there's a good answer to that question. No. I think for layovers, for me, it's definitely it depends on where I am, where I'm going, what I'm doing.

Unknown: 3:56

Oh, you are for sure, right? Like, a vibe person, like, sometimes I want to slam click, and sometimes I want to go do stuff. No, you're even if you could bid your favorite layover and like, it would still be a vibe for you. You'd be like, No, I'm slam clicking. You think I I would slam click on my favorite layover?

Andrew: 4:17

Oh, for sure. If, like, all the vibes weren't right for you. Yes, 100% crews, not good. Something during your day happened and, like, changed your mood. Like, you're not going out that night. You're just gonna stay in. You could be in, like, Well,

Unknown: 4:29

see, no, I think if it's my favorite layover, I'm going out regardless, because you're gonna ruin that for me. Okay, I think you're the mood one, because you're definitely like, no, not feeling it. So and so said something to me today. Yeah, you're laughing because, you know it's true. So and so said something to me today, and I'm done. I'm not doing it.

Andrew: 4:48

Yeah, I am. You're 100% true.

Rich: 4:50

So it's funny because I feel like some flight attendants and pilots are like, Yes, I'm a slam clicker. This is who I am. Or no, I'm going out at a relay over and you and I. It's like, goes to show how weird we are, because we're like, it's very specific. Circumstances will dictate,

Andrew: 5:05

well, no, I it very specific to circumstances will dictate if I go out or not. My like, default setting is slam clicker. But I've been doing this for a long time, right? Like, how many times can you go to Tampa?

Rich: 5:18

I love Tampa. Okay,

Andrew: 5:19

so do I bid it for the wings, because there's a restaurant there that has really good wings.

Rich: 5:24

What is the wings? Restaurant?

Andrew: 5:25

Hat tricks? Oh, that's right. Hat tricks. People always telling me to go there. So good. They have such good wings. I don't really know about their other food. Other people they have good food. I love their wings. They're like, twice baked and really crispy. And honestly, crispy sounds good. It's kind of an Irish bar, too. I think, if I remember correctly, haven't been in a while.

Rich: 5:42

I mean, at the risk of sounding like a pilot, I love the good Irish bar. They're staples. They're classic. You know what you're getting, whether the food is amazing or not, it's usually pretty standard. I mean, you can't go wrong there. But you know where I was in Tampa the other day, I went to this place called Oxford exchange, and it was like this bookstore, coffee shop, champagne bar. I was like,

Andrew: 6:05

Is that where you sent me the brunch pictures from brunch?

Rich: 6:08

Like it was, like, all in one but you could hang out there. They had, like, open seating, where you could just grab a coffee and bring your laptop and get work done. You could sit in a corner and read a book, but you could have this, like, fancy brunch dinner.

Andrew: 6:19

Rich posted it on his socials. And I thought he was like, in the moment posting, and I thought he I was like, he's at home. Where are you with so man, that he was whatever he was doing without me. He was like, No, silly. That was my layover.

Unknown: 6:32

I did post it at like, five o'clock in the morning. And so if you're looking at my stories, you probably were like, is he drinking at five o'clock in the morning? Probably no. Brood on a day off. But yeah, no. Anyways, Oxford exchange in Tampa, and apparently, hat tricks. And, of course, you and I would be the ones to be excited about Tampa of all places, but that's just who we are

Andrew: 6:51

as people. Well, I mean, if I'm bidding a layover, if I'm going to do a layover, I'm 100% doing it for food.

Rich: 6:57

It's for food. Well, for sure. Yeah, no. I mean, that's half the fun of the job. I remember going to Minneapolis once, like flying Philly to Minneapolis and flying right back to Philly, non revving, flying standby to get donuts. If you've been into the Minneapolis Airport, there's a place called, I think it's Angel Food bakery. They have a bacon maple donut, like we I literally non revved there to get a donut and fly home. Like, that's the crazy shit we do.

Andrew: 7:26

Houston has a Shipley's, and I've got a Houston for that because, like, the one, they have one in the airport, they have a Shipley's in the airport. So I'll pick up Houston so that I can go get the donut, because it's easier to fly at home.

Rich: 7:40

Though, I really just went and flew there on my own time, unpaid, to get a donut and come home.

Andrew: 7:46

Which is it? Des Moines, you fly to for pizza?

Rich: 7:48

Des Moines? Yes, crab Rangoon pizza from fongs.

Andrew: 7:51

I made him bring it home to me all the time.

Rich: 7:53

It's, it's really good. But, you know, I was there recently, the quality, I don't know there, it was a little sus honestly, not to have enough day. You're right. You're right. I'll go back. You just want me to go back and get you a pizza. I want you to bring home a

Andrew: 8:06

pizza, please.

Rich: 8:07

I sure will.

Andrew: 8:08

Des Moines for pizza and I send repairs for butter. Where else do I send you things that I eat? I

Unknown: 8:13

remember when I started flying making fun of these senior mamas who were like, well, I've got to go to Barcelona for my lotion, and Paris for my butter, in Mexico for my you went to Barcelona the other day and brought him that salami. And I'm obsessed, and I'm gonna make you go back for more. I mean, you know, these are the perks of the job here. But anyways, layovers, layovers, back to layovers. I bid for food. I do

Rich: 8:38

as well. Clearly, I'm all about a good food place. If you tell me there's some random city and they have a good restaurant, I'm gonna start bidding it, because I want to go there and I want to have that. But what, um, what are some of your other than food, obviously, but what are some of your, well, it could be for food. What are some of your favorite layovers that you've you've had,

Andrew: 9:00

you know, I think for me, it's really just the crews that you're with. They can make or break any layover if you're on one, if you're with really good friends and you're all hanging out after work and debriefing. Like, those make for the best ones. Yeah. So, like, I originally, if I'm bidding for a layover, my initial bid is for food and hotel brand. Some of the beds are just more comfortable than other ones. And if I'm bidding for a hotel brand, it's because I do not plan on leaving my room. I'm gonna crawl up in that bed and watch TV, right? Probably order room service.

Rich: 9:34

It's so true, because there's some there's some layovers where it's like, okay, I'm in Manhattan. I don't really care what the hotel is, to some degree, I will know,

Andrew: 9:42

because you're gonna go out and explore the city, yeah, for sure. And then there's others show we're gonna go have some, you know, like, if I'm in Columbus, or a bagel or something like that.

Rich: 9:53

But yeah, if I'm in, like, Columbus, Ohio, for 30 hours, like, I want a comfy hotel, because I'm probably not going out. And, well, that's a lie. I always find a place to go, but Columbus, Ohio, you know, I don't know.

Andrew: 10:05

Yeah, we're very different. People Rich is going to explore.

Rich: 10:08

I want to see

Unknown: 10:09

something. I feel sad if I'm like in my room too long, yeah, alone. That makes me depressed. What are your least favorite layovers? What are places that you're like, I don't ever have to go back there again. You know? I don't really have those. No, no. Well, one, we don't really control it, right? Like airline schedules or airline schedule, right? Yeah, I'm trying to think where, where was I hate crime, because that's the place I don't want to go back Little Rock Arkansas. Yeah, some lady called me the F word, and I was not a fan of that. And then, you know, me thinking anyone was gonna stand up and defend me in this moment, sitting at this bar alone in Little Rock didn't happen. I was like, I'm about to, like, have some ugly situation happen here, but, yeah, that was not fun for me. So I don't really have to go back there, but otherwise, I think it's hotel dependent. Like, it's certain hotels. It's like, I'm not gonna go back there because I did not like that they had no microwave or something like that. Like, it's always something really random. But I'm like, that always

Andrew: 11:20

is something random on it. Okay, so to you, is slam clicking, okay? Is that like, consider, do you consider that a form of self care?

Unknown: 11:29

absolutely. I think slam clicking. Or at least when I started, I always felt like new hires, especially, it's like a negative thing. Like, okay, you don't want to go out and explore. You don't want to do anything in your layover. Like, how boring Are you? And I feel like, over time, I've learned to appreciate it in terms of, like, some days you need to be like, I'm taking a nap, I'm sleeping in, I'm gonna take a 20 minute shower, I'm gonna do whatever, and just kind of like, binge on Netflix, binge on whatever TV show, put my feet up. Like, sit around in comfy clothes, eat snacks and like, just have a whole vibe. You know, when a hotel has a good bathtub, I'm so mad that hotels are only putting in showers now, because you used to, like, pull out my Clorox, my clean tub and like, have a nice soak.

Rich: 12:17

I'm really glad you said pull out Clorox. Some of these people using hotel tubs just willy nilly, and there's still some. Actually, we're gonna have to pull the audience on this one, because I tubs on layovers really kind of gross me out. There's a couple in Europe that I'm like, Okay, I, for some reason, trust Europeans to clean their toilets, more or toilets, oh, my god, bathtub some more. And they have, like, deeper tubs there too. But some of the hotels that we stay in, in the US, I'm like, I'm not getting into this and taking a bath here. I don't know what it is, but I'm glad to hear that you're a Clorox wipe kind of guy whenever, but

Andrew: 12:59

we don't have one at home, so, like, sometimes you just want to soak after a long day. It's true, yeah, um, tell me about your hotel routine when you if you are doing a layover, tell me what your like hotel routine looks like.

Rich: 13:10

I know I feel like people have weird hotel behaviors, but I am definitely the type that I I do everything I need to do for the next morning immediately. Because if I do go out, I want to be like, prepared the next morning to come back to the room, just crash and go to sleep. And then the next morning I'm ready to, like, hit the van, hit the ground running, get ready for the van or whatever. So like, I'll get to my hotel room, obviously. Step one, check, check for murderers. Exactly. Step two, poop, obviously, yeah. And then step three, take off my uniform, hang it up, iron it, get a new one out, whatever the case may be. And then plug in all my stuff, my, you know, work devices, my phone, my apple, watch and all that sort of stuff. And then just kind of set things up from there. If I have food, I'll put it on, like my Hot Logic. Do you guys use Hot Logic? I love my Hot Logic. I know you do. We're both, like, big Hot Logic, huge Hot Logic users. But, um, we'll put our

Andrew: 14:08

mom Hot Logic is like a hot plate. It's a traveling hot plate that you can use, yeah, layovers.

Rich: 14:13

It's super easy. It takes up, like, no space in your bag. You just plug it in. I mean, it can take a while to heat it up, but if you plug it in, like, first thing when you get to your room, your food will be hot in no time. But yeah, I and I'll do that, and then I'll go out and explore, and then come back to my room and just crash. Usually, that's kind of my routine. What about you?

Andrew: 14:32

Very similar, check for murderers, kind of number one, not unpack, but like, you know, put your toiletries out, kind of get everything set up. And if I'm leaving my hotel room, I like to have everything in a way to where I can just come zip up when I get back to the hotel. Yes, that night. Not that I'm an avid gym goer, but I do like to, like, go spend a few minutes walking on a treadmill if I don't know the area that I'm in, like. If there's a walking path, I would rather go do that before dinner or just something to get some fresh air. But I feel like, you know we're moving, but we're not. So I try to use the gym or go on a long walk or something like that. I don't

Rich: 15:13

know how people do it. Sometimes, like when I had a nine to five job, I was really good about going to the gym and getting in that routine. Some days, it's like, you find idea, I don't know, like a 12 hour day, and these people are like fitness, yay. And I'm like food, yay. I don't know how they do it.

Andrew: 15:29

I don't either. Kudos to all of you who are like, really, and call me if you see me on a layover, pull me into the gym with you, because I need it.

Rich: 15:37

I'm gonna

Unknown: 15:38

say that here on the podcast, but in real life, don't call me. I'm not coming with you to the gym, but I I'm the same way. I'd rather get out and explore, like I could walk, you know, 10 miles around a city before I would spend 30 minutes in a gym in a hotel. It's like after being stuck on an airplane all day. I think this is why I'm usually not a slam clicker. I need that fresh air, like my mental health needs it, my physical health needs it, like, I need to get out and, like, feel alive, feel human again, yeah. And

Andrew: 16:08

then, honestly, for me, it depends on the length of layover. If I'm on a longer run, like, I'm in my phone I'm googling some sort of, like, local restaurant or attraction to go, like, check out. You know, I love, like, libraries and art museums, bookstores. So like, Yeah, I'm trying to find something like that to go do, versus just or if you've got me on a Caribbean, like, a beach layover, I'm straight to the beach, and I'm laying there all day long. I'm not seeing, yeah, and I might have a short one. I'm definitely just going to the hotel bar, yeah, ordering dinner.

Unknown: 16:41

I'm all about the like activities on layovers. Like, is there a concert in town of an artist I like? Is there an artist I've never heard of that I might want to, like, find out about them? Is there a musical or something nearby? When

Andrew: 16:53

I love to do this for you, I love to, like, buy you concert tickets while you're on a layover. We've done this a couple times, a couple times, yeah, or just like, I'm going to this city. And I'm like, Well, this is your favorite artists thing. Here's a ticket, I know.

Unknown: 17:05

ticket. I'm like, I guess I'm going alone.

Rich: 17:09

Speaking of alone, though, like, I do like hanging out with crew members on layovers, or do you like having, like, a little me time?

Andrew: 17:19

I for me, it depends on who we're with, right? Like, if we're vibing and I really enjoy your company, like, let's go do something together, but I know that I'm a weirdo, and I could literally go sit in a bookstore all day, so I don't want to force you to come do that with me. So it really depends on what I have planned, and if we were vibing or not, if you want to come sit in a bookstore with me, I'm totally down for that. But where are we? What was there to do? Like, I love going and I don't gamble, but Vegas layovers are super fun because you can pull your crew down and, like, play some slot machines, and, you know, hang out.

Unknown: 17:51

I had a Vegas layover once where I gambled because I'm not a gambler. I'm not good at it. I don't like doing it. And this guy was flying with was like, Oh, it's so much fun. I go here every time. I always win. These slot machines are so great, like, I always walk away with something. And I was like, okay, and I was like, but I really, I'm new. I don't have any money. I just, I don't, I'll come hang out with you, but I don't want to do it right? And he's like, just here, take some money of mine and you, you play. And he gave me $250 of his own money to spend. I lost that in like 10 minutes. And he was like, Well, did you have fun? And I was like, not really. And he's like, please just say yes. You just threw away my money. And I was like, to be fair, you gave me money to do it. I told you I was terrible at this before you had taken the money like I want. Yeah, I that was fun. But I do love there's nothing like going out with a crew that you really, really like and really vibe with, because that those are the moments where you're like, being a flight attendant or a pilot is like, so cool, because we just, we don't know these people, right? You become best friends with them so quickly, and you share your life stories over dinner and drinks in some random city. And it's like, I'm sure you can think of 1000 times, maybe not 1000 but like, at least a few, where you've just been, like, that was magic,

Andrew: 19:15

correct? And that's why I say it really just depends on the vibe of the crew that day, whether we're going out or not, and sometimes I literally don't want to go, but you have somebody who's like, I don't really want to go alone, and you're like, right? Okay, I guess I'm going. And then you end up having the best time with that person, because their energy is like, so good, and it just kind of solidifies the friendship that you've already making on the airplane. So

Unknown: 19:37

especially with newer people too, like, I always feel bad if I'm with a crew, and everyone's like, I'm slam clicking, and this person is suddenly very excited about wherever we are, whether you've been there 1000 times or not, and you're like, this energy is infectious, like, I have to

Andrew: 19:53

treat and we've always we've all had, we have to pay it forward, right? We've all been taken care of. At some point, we're with some senior crew, and they. Were like, I got your dinner. We're going out for drinks. Everything's on me. And then you kind of want to pay that forward with the new person that you're with, too, because, yeah, like, it's cool to kind of be that, like, senior flight attendant at this point.

Unknown: 20:12

It is. It is kind of nice to be like, That fun senior flight attendant. I just flew this girl and she, she was like, Oh, you're so fun. You're like one of the fun senior guys,

Rich: 20:23

senior, senior, I've been here 10 years. Calm down, right?

Andrew: 20:26

That's funny. I'm gonna tell on you. Tell me Yes, because there's this really cool thing that rich does. He when he first started, speaking of being new, when rich first started, he was flying with a senior person, and their piece of advice for him was to get a postcard from every layover that he went on, like the first time he was in a city, if he actually laid over there to get a postcard. And I just love this book of postcards that we have at home. Yeah, honestly,

Unknown: 20:54

it's it seems so stupid, and it was so silly, but we were in Minneapolis. That was my very first layover as a flight attendant, and she I was looking at like magnets, and she's like, but are you really gonna get magnets? And I know some flight attendants do this, like, they get a magnet for every city they've ever been to. We do magnets for like places we vacation together. But this is totally like, I feel like the postcards made it so much more special, yeah, and I mean, the fact that it's just so cheap and so easy, like, you spend a buck or two on a postcard, it's not breaking the bank as a new hire, but then it's a fun way to, like, showcase and really look back at everywhere you've been. And, like, I have this whole photo album of, I don't even know how many layovers now, like 150 or something, many, but each postcard, like, the only thing I didn't do that. I really regret doing not doing is writing the crew and writing like what happened on the layover. But every city I go to, I still do it. To this day, new cities, I will buy a postcard and stick it in this photo album, and it's just so cool to flip back on the memories. Highly recommend it. We did. I thought some of them did have crews, and you didn't do it on all of them. You just did it on some No, I was real lazy about where I would just be like, oh, I need to throw in another postcard. And I honestly, there's like, what? How many cities in Florida, some of those blend together. And I'm like, I don't know if I was in West Palm Beach or Tampa or Fort Myers, honestly, they all start to look the same. What was your first layover? San, Luis Obispo, California, speaking of random California city that

Rich: 22:27

all maybe kind of start to blend together sometimes,

Andrew: 22:29

with the regional so we were going to, like, small because I started California towns, but yeah, I was San Luis Obispo, and I got last minute called out. So it was a crew of new hires. I was with a classmate on my first flight. Oh my god. I was scared to death. And then we get to this overnight, and I'm like, you don't even know how to behave because you're with a classmate who's never been on an overnight either, right?

Rich: 22:51

And they don't know how to behave the ropes, like in my case, although in my case, the ropes where we went to Mall of America and ate Taco Bell. But you know what? I had a great time,

Andrew: 23:01

but I am jealous of the fact that somebody gave you that advice, because I really wish I had some sort of collectible. 20 years later, I wish I had some sort of memento for all of that. I just I really think your collection is beautiful, and I really love that you had, you were with somebody that like shared that advice with you.

Rich: 23:21

Honestly that it was one of the best pieces of like, little nuggets of wisdom that anyone has given me in this job. And I I recommend it to every new person that I fly with. 100% people their postcards and been like, Go start your album. And I hope they do. Yeah. I love this. I love that.

Andrew: 23:38

Wait, you buy them their first postcard.

Rich: 23:40

Yeah. Oh, I didn't know that she bought it for me.

Andrew: 23:42

Oh, I didn't know that part of that story,

Rich: 23:43

part of my whole thing is, like, she bought me my first postcard to start this album that makes now, if I'm playing with somebody who's like, I'm like, Let me buy you a postcard. I just learned something new. Yeah, it's such a cute little way to, like, pay it forward, like you said

Andrew: 23:57

of I mean, I love jumping off and getting somebody a cup of coffee because, you know, they're new, right? Like, it's fun to do that to somebody. So I love when we get to pay things forward. So we really do take care of each other. So what we learned today is that we both love and hate layovers, and we're probably vibing out on whether or not we come out with you.

Unknown: 24:14

Yeah, I think people always think it's this glamorous thing, and some days it is. Some days we're having these epic adventures, and some days we really are slam clicking, because you've just been around people too much, right? Need a little me time, and you need some me time. That's it, exactly. Yeah.

Rich: 24:29

So what do you guys do on your layovers? Tell us. Go ahead and DM us, or email us at podcasts, at two guys on a plane.com, tell us your favorite food places, cities you go to for different things, and your fun layover stories, or if you slam click or you explore, and we'd love to hear it.

Andrew: 24:46

And if you are a slam clicker, tell us how you spend your time in your hotel room. Is it Netflix? Is it self care? Like, what are you doing? We love to hear all of it. Join us next time for more humor, heart and story from our beverage Park.
