Don’t you just love it when you get aboard the aircraft and the flight attendant brings you a cold drink, asks if you need something and actually looks like she cares? How about when she smiles when she asks if you need anything? How neat is it when it’s a genuine smile, not the fake “Someone is paying me very little; I hate my job but I have to smile or they will fire me.”
Our flight to Paris was great from start to finish. Our flight attendant Sharon was thankfully the real deal – happy to have us in BusinessFirst and made us feel like we were her only customers that night. That’s what makes a good flight attendant. What makes a great flight attendant is one who also possesses a great sense of humor.
Sharon laughed with us when we told her we wanted to submit a hilarious photo to flight attendant turned author, Heather Poole’s blog under her Laviators photo contest. Sharon took our silly photo (one must check out Heather’s blog to see what this is all about) and applauded our Joie de Vivre! So many times we take the time to complain about snarky flight attendants, but how many times do we praise the super cool, warm and friendly ones? Sharon, for all you do…this compliment’s for you…you are the best flight attendant I know on Continental Airlines! May all your days be delay free and your passengers delightfully relaxed. Bon Voyage and enjoy your daughter’s wedding next week. We will miss you on the way back!

Dear Pricilla, What a delight you are! I loved having you on my flight and of course you were my favorites! Your website is fabulous! So much useful and hilarious information! Thank you for taking the time to write such a kind letter about me. I was overwhelmed. My daughter’s wedding was beautiful (thank you for remembering ). Can’t wait to see you again. Love, Sharon
Hi Sharon!
So thrilled to hear from you! I tell everyone you are the best that Continental Airlines has aboard the flights from IAH to CDG. We had a fabulous trip and there will be many more stories ahead so please keep reading and pass along the site to all your colleagues! Elizabeth and I were bragging about you to the flight attendants on the way back from Paris. Two of them knew of you and agreed that you are the sweetest!
Can’t wait to see you again Sharon!
Love,
Priscilla
I agree; we too often take for granted what flight attendants do for us. Glad that someone else appreciates them!
I’m flying Continental to Paris next month – I’ll keep an eye out for any ‘Sharons’ I see. :)

Hi Ty,
Yes, we all need to keep our eyes out for other “Sharons” out there and give them kudos when we see them!
