  • Nonrevs, Deadheads & Commuters in (and out) of uniform

    Wanna know the best way to change clothes on an airplane? I bet you do. I’ll get to that in a moment. (Or you can just scroll down to the bottom of this post.) Now that I’ve got your attention…  Have you ever seen a uniformed crew member sitting on…
