Remember when flying was glamorous and sexy, even fun? When airline food
was gourmet, everyone dressed up for a flight, and stewardesses catered
to our every need-at least in our imaginations? This classic memoir by
two audaciously outspoken young ladies, who lived and loved the
free-spirited stewardess life, jets you back to those golden days of air
travel-from the captain who's as subtle as a 747 when he's on the make
to the passenger who mistakes the overhead luggage rack for an upper
berth; from the names of celebrities who were a pleasure to serve (and
some surprising notables on the "bad guy" list) to the origins of some
naughty stereotypes-Spaniards are the best lovers, actors the most
foul-mouthed. This huge bestseller, a First Class jet-age journal,
offers a hilarious gold mine of outrageous anecdotes from the
high-flying and amorous lives of those busty, lusty, adventuresome young
women of the swinging '60s known as "stews."
