Has anyone gotten on a flight attendant, or girl who works for an airline's "list"?
I tried searching the forum and didn't see anything.
I'm surprised none of us has targeted these girls because the cheap flights hookup would be sensational.
My job in the oil fields is what really inspired me, the 2 weeks on 2 weeks off schedule calls for a lot of travel.
Right now I'm working on a cute little 24 yr old half white half Filipino girl that works for Southwest.
But that was a random encounter. There's got to be a way to find these girls specifically.

I've been on six flights(to and from) this year to see visit family. I havnt ever hooked up with one but I try and run game on them to get free drinks and food. I've been successful 5/6 times. Useuslly ill come off the plane a little drunk because they give me one or two free bottles of vodka.
The last flight I took back to Texas the attendant hooked me up with a free cheese and cracker tray and two free bottles of vodka for my vodka sodas. All she charged me for was a box of chips.
The second best flight I took the chick gave me three bottles of vodka for free after I paid for one.
Recently I've been wondering if this is common for other people. Do flight attendants give out a lot of free stuff on a regular basis?
I'll write about what I do if it's uncommon for guys here to get this preferential treatment.

Popping my cherry with this first post. Unwritten rule among flight attendants is that they usually will only hook up with men from first or business class. If you're in cattle class, forget it. If you're scoring a few extra drinks, consider yourself lucky.

Kickboxer, definitely share what you do.
As for the rest, I wasn't really talking about hitting on them while on a flight, that seems inefficient. There must be some place they congregate. Like an airport hotel or something. Hell is there a dating website? It is a job where they're away from "home" a lot.

Hitting on them on a long-haul flight and making love in the galley or lavatory would be the pinnacle of game.
Feel the fear..then do it anyway.

First post as well. New to the game, but I consider myself pretty well versed in travel because I fly to Asia 2-3x a year mostly first, some biz, and transcontinentally 8-10x, again all biz/first. With that said, I don't really find flight attendants in the US very attractive. Most of them are legacy employees from the 70's and 80's when the work was considered more glamorous. Plus the system works so that he FA's with the most seniority get first pick at scheduling... And seeing as they usually prefer long haul flights, my LAX-JFK/ATL/ORD flights are 95% staffed by middle and late aged ladies.
I think the opportunities and talent is much higher on international flights, particularly to Asia. In most of those countries, FA's have strict guidelines on height/weight/age. Also it's still considered a "prestige" occupation, although that's faded somewhat in Korea and Japan lately. Singapore is by all accounts a 1st world nation, but Sing Air has somehow held on to that ideal.
Anyway, To get to the point, these girls are trained to see flyers as people of means and are Already conditioned into feeling that you are a high value man. I've found the best way to game these girls is to continue to reinforce these beliefs. It's unavoidable, but guys in business class are going to have a serious advantage here. Paradoxically, first class in this one sense is worse than biz because the oldest, most senior FA's handle first, and im not usually into MILFs. Still, if you're stuck in coach, do what you can to get an exit row seat when checking in. Most of these seats are reserved for people who fly a lot and have elite status with airlines, which denotes a certain socioeconomic status. You'd be surprised at how many times I've seen these seats offered for only $39-$99 upgrades.
I also make sure to wear nice clothing (even though they give us pajamas in first) and try to be courteous and polite as many harried travelers heap shit on them. As an Asian, I also make sure to speak in English first and then I'll switch to their native language if I see on their badge that they speak Korean or Japanese. Again, whether right or wrong, being multilingual denotes high value/status in their eyes.
Most folks nod off about an hour and a half after meal service, so I usually take my meals late and use the lull in duties when passengers sleep to chat up the FA's near the galley. Unfortunately, many airlines frown on their staff fraternizing with customers, so it's a good idea to start off with very indirect game and then ramp up accordingly. A big motivator for job entry of many FA's Is to meet better quality men through their jobs, but they still don't want to get fired!
A lot of times I'll ask them tips on where to go even though I'm intimately familiar with the city. It leads to discussions about hip bars and clubs and I'll tend to ask them if they're staying at hotels or at crash pads (housing split between 10-20 FA's in their home bases for sleep in between flights) and gauge if they're open to the rapport that I'm building. If all signs point to yes, I'll wind down the conversation, and put a hand out for a shake... With a business card palmed into it, a la "greasing the bouncer in Vegas" and softly say it would be great to hang out with them again. Sounds super cheesy, but I've found that FA's overwhelmingly appreciate the discretion in front of their coworkers and other passengers, and it keeps everyone including yourself from "losing face".
It seemed unnatural at first not to ask for their numbers... and the first few times I tried,I got the "airline won't allow me to date passengers" line even though I knew that at least one and possibly all three girls I tried this on would've been up for it. Yet, I was able to get at last count 6 or 7 responses using the "Vegas bouncer" method, and one particularly crafty FA wrote her number inside the menu for me when I asked for my meal. On another occasion, the FA that I ran this on called me immediately after we got off the plane and told me to meet her that same night. She said that I showed "creativity" and she didn't want to risk not calling right away and losing the opportunity to get to know each other better.
Great thing about FA's: usually attractive, decently educated, almost all speak passable-excellent English, and not surprisingly are very used to meeting new people and are admirably DTF. Never gotten past 2nd date without the bbang, usually after the first meeting in town.
Not so great things: they are somewhat flighty (no pun intended), aren't going to be around if you really want to get to know them well and FA's are highly prized landside aka a lot of them date rich, powerful guys already. That's why I guess it's important to run tight indirect game on them and display high levels of value with a splash of mysterious jetsetting foreigner exoticism.
Sorry if I geared my post to a niche demographic, but that's what I know.

Excellent post! I'm going to try the Vegas bouncer move in the galley on my next long-haul flight.I'll be in coach but no harm in trying.

Man, the grease method is awesome. Very clever.
Also kickboxer. Hell yes. Getting some real ROI on game is where it's at. I'm increasingly leaning toward this view. Free shit and hookups is high level stuff.

Some great info in this thread so far.
As stated, in order to make gaming on a plane worth your while you need to pick your airline carefully. Asian and Middle Eastern airlines operate in a legal environment were they can make sure the majority of flight attendants they have are relatively young and eager to serve their passengers. After a certain number of years the majority of their flight attendants will have hooked up with a suitable man and have started a new phase of their life apart from the airline. If not the airline would be able to "let them go".
Western legacy airlines have a problem since they must pretend that having more hours as a flight attendant invariably makes you a better flight attendant (aka seniority). In reality this is only true for a couple of years service, then they get more jaded, crotchety etc. and give customers worse service. All the while earning more money and getting preferred by the airline over there younger compatriots. It is bizare, but it is what it is.

It's not my thing, but I have gotten a number from flirting with an attendant while waiting at the gate for my plane. I met another attendant from an online date, and had a relationship with a former attendant.
They tend to be young, poor, and enjoy travel (duh!). They may share cheap apartments with coworkers since they are rarely home. I see bunches of them in uniforms checking into hotels. My point is that they have a social circle. Just be friendly and ask where they stay or hang out. I'm sure many are single, bored, and interested in entertainment while travelling.

Thinking about it, I'm going to start flying business more instead of first class. Last time I went back to business to chat up the younger, more attractive FA's, the staff in first got chewed out by the head purser for not looking after their passengers.
For those who travel coach: Actually pretty easy to sign up for credit cards that offer crazy sign up bonuses that allow you to fly business and first class for very little money. Can always use miles to upgrade too. Granted these are US based cards.

International Swagger had a data sheet about FA a while ago. I have been flying for years and never once have I had a hot FA on my flight. But then again I usually flight to Latin America/ Caribbean and only during the day.
Seniority rules at the major US airlines even the non union ones. So the older more senior FA pick all the desirable flights(long haul, short flights during business hours) Thus the younger and hotter ones work the red eye flights out of undesirable airports/route/hours.

Here's one I posted back in the day on H-Lair. You might have to sign up to read it.. Pretty detailed encounter. After a lot of flirting and conversations & making plans, we just weren't able to match up logistics but she was primed and ready to have breakfast in bed & wear my white shirts after..
http://houstonlair.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=284
Had a recent one where I had all of them eating out of my hands in the "curtained" area. Logistics after that were not workable.
They have strict guidelines on "not-mingling" with passengers and maintaining decorum, atleast not become visible or get caught.
Its a mix of YOUR ENERGY and THEM.. if you are able to get them out of "attendant-passenger" conversation with light banter and then get more personal (sharing life/travel experiences) & get them laughing (funny/ quirky experiences), then there's a lot of room to play. Since, I used to travel a lot and knew people working in Airlines I knew their "life" and then they feel we can relate to each other.. now its normal conversation. Given how hard they work & how bored they get on long hauls, you could be the sparkle that lights their flight..
I used to travel a lot so gotten used to talking to them & co-travelers. But, never had any hottie sit in a nearby seat. What luck!
You can do what you can do, but LOGISTICS sometimes are beyond your control.
The point of modern propaganda isn't only to misinform or push an agenda. It is to exhaust your critical thinking, to annihilate truth.

@slubu: would be interested in knowing which bar you're talking about in OC. I know you don't like Asian chicks, but I remember coming across a lot of FA's in certain bars in the San Gabriel Valley.

I wonder if there is a day game / day close component to this because of schedules. I may have to investigate further this is interesting to me.

They all have "Crew rooms" and "crew hotels" i.e the crowne plaza heathrow is a crew hotel.
Tactic one fake your gps location to these locations for tinder etc.
Tactic two - hang out in the hotel bar , they are all piss poor so no one will turn down your drink offer.
Most pilots are dull as ditch water , and the rest of the crew might be gay !

I have air-hosttess friends who work for Emirates, Etihad and BA.
My experience dictates that, business class will get you so many more opportunities than Economy.
- the hottest ones graduate to business
- less people, same amount of air hostesses, higher ratio
- less kids, families and distractions for gaming
- A380 has a bar where you can pretty much perch yourself there and chat them up
- if you are on a return flight home, it is easy to offer to show them around for the limited amount of time they are there
- you can set up a pipeline if you are cool because a lot of them won't be familiar with the area and they can resort to you
- you can find out where they stay when they come to your city. the main airlines will usually have revolving bookings at the same hotels; some are near airports, others are near town centres (it depends also on length of stop-overs)
- knowing a bit about their way of life and being able to empathize in a joking manner is also cool. they deal with a lot of shit shows and if you can joke with them about stereotypes of various passengers, it's good for building comfort
- tip them. it's a service and it's appreciated. this is just a personal preference of mine. it also says a lot about the manner in which she responds.
My experience also shows that in Business, they are more than keen to fraternize.
I mean look, you are stuck on a flight with them for a certain amount of time. If you have fun and are memorable, you are in the top 5%. If you are sexy and have a vibe, top 1%. These chicks secretely dream of this shit.
Business class is a winner but at the end of it, you can hit up the hotels where they usually stay.
e.g. I know when and what time international flights come into town and I know where they stay. I know girls who have told me this info but you can tell them from a mile away.
The best/worst thing about meeting them is that there is always is a time constraint. If they are into you, they will be more forthcoming and waste less time. Happened to me with a Thai air-hostess in SH. Happened to me on a flight with Emirates.
Either way, if your game is decent, the impression you will make is much more solid than most.
p.s. a lot of posts in this thread are spot on. a lot of this info is circumstantial too.
Dubai is also a massive hub where they are all over and you can find in certain places; Operation Scatman.
