It’s been a while since I’ve written.

I was taking a break. Speaking of breaks.

Working on an aircraft is one of the few jobs where you get a chance to sleep while being paid.

It’s a luxury I greatly appreciate.

On any flight we get somewhere between 1-4 hours break depending on the duration of the trip. Trips to the west coast from Europe tend to get longer breaks as they are upwards of 9-13 hours.

During these breaks you can do whatever you please with in confines of the aircraft, most people sleep. I usually watch something on my iPad or try to take a nap.

It’s quite nice and something I enjoy and at times it can be the difference between a grumpy time or a happy time. It’s some privacy, an escape, or a reset to help us relax in the air no matter the circumstances.
