Good morning everyone welcome to my channel. I'm Julia a dolla space flight attendant
Today I am about to start
8:35 Labor's in Austin and Chicago and I'm actually being driven to the airport by my amazing boyfriend Eric
Since Eric and I just moved in together. We're actually still sharing a car and over the next few days. He needs the car
So that is why he is driving me to work today, and I'm also running a little late. I
Just got to my gate I'm waiting for my plane to get here
I'm about to do in our Lander turning side fly from Dallas to Orlando and in
Orlando back to Dallas and then one-click flight over to Austin where I lay over tonight, so
We just did the orlando turn and everything was really smooth both nights went really well
Except now we are back in Dallas and our point Austin has been delayed a little over an hour
There's something wrong with the inbound aircraft and it's coming in way later than it's supposed to and as crew members
we are only allowed to work a certain amount of hours per day and our captain did and foremost that he is probably going to
Go illegal, which means that he has reached his duty limit for the day
So I'm pretty sure they're gonna try to find us a new captain, but I will keep you all updated
And I just hope that we have a safe flight
So I'm just eating my dinner while I wait for my next flight. I have rice chicken corn and sweet potatoes
It's so good when you mix it all together made it to Austin, and I have a super cool hotel room
so in here we have a closet and
I swear this is like the comfiest robe I have ever touched it is so soft
I will probably wear it when I got out of the shower and then through here you have
A coffee maker and all of that good stuff and then the bathroom is through here it is
Super pretty. I love all of the tiling on the shower floor
It's super nice
and then in the main room you have a large TV a lamp a
Chair and then the room itself is so big and then there's a big bed and above it
there is some really cool pictures and
a desk right here
And then I'll show you guys the view again in the morning from my hotel room because it'll probably be a lot more clear
I do get asked all the time at what my schedule is like as a flight attendant that I was thinking since I'm filming this
Right now at the end of October I could go through what my entire month schedule with you guys
I can show you all where I flew to how many hours I flew and all of that good stuff
But I am really tired right now. So I'm gonna show you guys all of that stuff tomorrow
Good morning, Austin, you look cold and cloudy
So I don't think I'll be leaving my hotel room this morning
But I found out the name of that big building over there. It is the Texas State Capitol
So that is really neat that I have a pretty cool view of that building
Good morning, everyone
So I thought I would just take a few moments to show you guys exactly what my schedule is like as a flight attendant from
The month of October and this month was super interesting because not only did I have vacation time
But we also had some storms in Dallas so that like extended some of my duty periods
So I got a little bit of everything that I can show you guys so I thought this would be a pretty fun month to
Show you how crazy things can get as a flight attendant. But also how much time you can have off as well
but first I need to get connected to the Wi-Fi here and you guys can look at this picture of
Eric and I from our cruise it was such a fun vacation and look at him, isn't he just so handsome?
So the month isn't completely over but so far
I am being paid for ninety nine point zero seven hours of flying time
I actually originally had the first three days off of October
But I was on reserve the last day of the month and got called for a three-day trip which unfortunately is
Something crew scheduling is allowed to do if you have those days off and you are on call the last day of the month
So anyways that trip started on
September 30th and ended October 2nd and
Ended up bringing me 11 hours and 42 minutes into the month. I had layovers in Fort Myers and
Jacksonville, Florida
And then I had one day off and then I had a trip from October 4th through the 6th and that trip
Signed in at 613 in the morning and ended at 8:06 p.m. On the 6th
It was worth 17 hours and 54 minutes. I had Lavers in Minneapolis st. Paul in Las Vegas
The first day I worked two flights the second day
I worked two flights and then the third day I worked three flights
And then what's cool about this month is I had five days worth of vacation time and each day
I was paid three-and-a-half hours worth of pay
so I ended up being the same amount of pay as if I worked a
Trip with a credit of seventeen and a half hours and during my vacation time
That's actually when I went to Orlando with my sister and then I had another three-day trip starting the 13th
And it went through to the 15th
And that trip signed in at 6:00 in the morning and finished at 5:38 p.m
It was worth 17 hours and 16 minutes eyalet overs in Cancun and Oklahoma City and that trip
I worked two flights the first day two flights the second day and three flights on the last day and then I actually
Had a pretty good chunk of days off. I almost had a week off from the 16th to the 21st. So that was awesome
And then I started another three-day trip on the 22nd that signed in 11:40 a.m
And this actually ended up being a four day trip
Even though it was only to be three days and that was because of really bad weather and storms in Dallas
So I ended up getting back at 12:40 a.m
So that's what made it a four-day trip, but originally this trip was only worth 16 hours
But I ended up gaining an hour and 40 minutes because we had to go around
Storms and that made our flights a little bit longer
But I had layover in Salt Lake City and Nashville
And the first day I worked three flights second day two and then the third day two flights and the trip I am currently on
Right now is this one from the 27th to the 29th? And I signed in at 11:59 a.m
And the trip releases, October 29th at 10:30 4:00 p.m
and the credit is 17 hours and five minutes and I have layover in Austin and
Chicago and this is an interesting trip because the first day was our longest day. I worked three flights today
I only have one flight. I'm going from Austin to Chicago and then tomorrow I have two flights and
This column right here in case if you guys were wondering is time away from base
So those are how many hours that I am spending away from DFW?
and at the end of the month
All of these hours are added up and we are given a certain amount of per diem money
Added on to our paycheck and then over in this column
They have the position of the plane that your account. So for this trip, I was positioned three and then speaker
no, because I do not speak another language and
position three on this trip position one position 1 and position
1 so that is basically just an overview of my schedule for October and including my vacation time
I have a projected monthly credit of 99 hours and 7 minutes
So that is what I will be paid for the month of October
I still have a few more hours of my way over here in Austin
So I'm going to go get a workout in before I need to start getting ready for work. All right
well
This is a nice gym and look at the floor can definitely tell that we are in
Texas and then out here. They have a pool which would be nice, but it's a little bit too cold out to enjoy it
So I'm all ready for work now today should be a pretty easy day
Although I probably shouldn't say that because I don't want to jinx myself. But today we just have one flight
We're going from Austin to
Chicago and I think it's like a two and a half or three hour flight and then we're done for the day and we layover
in Chicago tonight
Our hotel in Chicago is pretty cool and all the floors have plants on them
Which is really pretty but imagine if you were the person who had to walk through and water the plants every single day
So we made it to Chicago
The flight was an hour and 55 minutes, so it wasn't too long and we only had one flight today, which was awesome
It's pretty late though. It's almost 10 o'clock here and our pickup. I think is tomorrow at like noon or 1:00 p.m
so it's not quite long enough to go out and see Chicago which I'm kind of sad about because I
Haven't ever gotten to explore the city downtown but the hotel we're staying at is right by the airport
So I think I'm just gonna call it a night and hang out tomorrow until it is time
To get picked up and head to the airport, but I will talk to you guys tomorrow
It looks like it is a cloudy and cold day in Chicago today. So I had a nice and relaxing
Morning here on my layover in Chicago. We have two flights today. It is going to be quite a long day today though
We fly from Chicago to Santa Ana, California
And that flight is scheduled to be four and a half hours long
And then once we get to Santa Ana
We have one flight back to Dallas and that flight is about two and a half hours
So we have quite a bit of flying today, but it's gonna be a good day
Just come back to Dallas it is midnight right now
We were about an hour and a half delayed because as you can tell it is raining here in Dallas
But I'm just really happy that we were able to land and that we didn't have to divert and that it was only a delay
And not a flight cancellation. So now I get to go home and be with Erik and Lena
So I'm home now and I got this turnt up golden retriever with me say hi Luna
All she cares about is her till I say hi, you know
So, how do you two old?
So we were bad and we stopped at the cursory store on our way home to get Bagel Bites and ice cream
and milk
Luna is the newest supporter of breast cancer awareness
Say hi. No, no
