In many EE countries they hire stewardesses based on looks still. I've read job postings.

In the eighties, it was alway fun to hook up with stewardesses when on the way to Europe. My flight transatlantic flight attendant spent the weekend layover with me in Paris in 1988. Imagine doing that today with today's old cows.
Blame it on the unions. Flight attendant seems like a young person's job. Not a fat old person's job.

In Canada their is a soft gate that keeps whack chicks out for the reason that you have to be Bi-lingual. And since are largest Airline is "based" out of Montreal you get a lot of French chicks whom do the job. The Union keeps older women on board but even then you don't see nasty broads like the old bag that was posted.

Fly Asiana, Singapore, any of the Asian airlines really. You'll see women who are petite, with pear-sized heads, and on the whole, very pretty.
Fly an American airline and you'll get man-jawed looking behemoths or prissy little gay guys.
Agree with the OP that America peaked in the 60s. Nothing but continued downhill deterioration at this point. It will get worse.

I think a lot of those women in the --ads?-- from the 60's were models, unless they recruited stews exactly like models. Those were ads, not in-flight photos, right?
Still, whale-ism is everywhere...

Speakeasy those photos look like the set of Austin Powers. It's almost a parody how stylish, sexy, and feminine those women are. Hard to believe that was how it really was.
Sigh.

Actually, I don't think that stewardesses on American carriers have changed at all since the 60s. And that's the problem. The same women are still working; they're just old now. They have seniority, so they get all the good routes. I think it's pretty tough for a younger woman to break into the stewardess game right now.

Damn the girl in the second hippie pic is smokin'.
Also Emancipator are those girls in the red definitely Virgin air-hostesses? They are Mediterranean looking, for that reason my next flight must be with them.

I fly nearly every week and have to put up with fat stewardesses bumping into my elbows and shoulders with their fat asses. It's not just unpleasant to look at them, it's hazardous to fly with them. That type of shit is unprofessional. At this point, I prefer the gay male flight attendants. At least they don't knock into me when they walk by.

I was watching "Makers", the ridiculous "women who made america" series, and they used to fire ALL the stewardesses on their 32nd birthday. The pictures of the attendants looked just like the above, nothing but slim, attractive young women. It was hilarious to hear the music get ominous when the woman narrating started talking about eating her 32nd birthday cake and then going to a union to complain.
