Confessions of a flight attendant serving VIP guests on an airplane

Always ready to serve and wait, accepting being touched or hiding adultery are requirements for flight attendants serving VIP customers.

Emilia George is a flight attendant who serves VIPs on private jets worth tens of millions of dollars. Here are some of the things she has learned over the years.

Money was never an issue

“For those who can afford a private jet, money is never an issue. VIPs flying a private jet is like hailing a taxi,” George said.

Luxurious interior

“You can easily find pictures of a private jet on Google. But the image and reality still make you surprised by the luxury and opulence. Customers always demand the best quality equipment or the most modern technology.”

Challenges at work

“When you’re at 10,000 meters or on a small island in the middle of the ocean, you’re going to have to deal with a lot of things. But once a customer has made a request, it’s your job to fulfill it. I’ve spent $500 on a taxi just to find a can of caviar, or assembled a 200-piece band to satisfy a passenger’s wishes when they arrive.”

Accept being touched

“Some clients invite me to intimate dinners, invite me to their hotel rooms, or even take the initiative to touch sensitive areas. Many private jet owners even require their flight crew to dress provocatively and sexy instead of the uniforms of regular airlines. Either you politely refuse, or you will easily lose your temper with your own clients.”

The job offers many benefits.

“One of the benefits of serving VIP clients is that you get to stay in the most expensive hotels in the world, or enjoy dinner at luxury restaurants. In many cases, customers want to show their gratitude, so you will receive generous tips.”

Waiting Game

“Unlike commercial airlines, private jet flights do not have a fixed schedule. There were times when I was away for months because the client always requested the plane to be ready to depart at any time. But on the day of the flight, you waited all day and the client did not even show up. This meant that expensive fresh food had to be thrown away.”

Covering up affairs

“You will see that some clients travel with different women, but your job is to ignore them. Also, you need to make sure that no trace of the woman is left behind by cleaning the plane or paying attention to lipstick stains on the client’s collar.”
