Mountains Out of Mobiles

Season 1 · Episode 29

Tuesday, August 27, 2024 • Duration 25:58

There are many seemingly strange drills that cabin crew have to train for, so they're ready to face any danger in the air (or the ground). Many of them we hope we don't have to use, but occasionally we do! This is the story of the Least Risk Bomb Location. The place on the aircraft where an explosive device can be placed, the spot on the plane that is deemed the safest. Where it would protect flight critical structures and systems from damage should detonation take place.

Tuesday, August 20, 2024 • Duration 23:26

There are No Saints in St Lucia...

Season 1 · Episode 19

Tuesday, June 18, 2024 • Duration 24:04

When you have the best time downroute but never know who is watching!

The long Caribbean trips used to be a favourite among cabin crew and pilots. A few uninterrupted days of sun, sea and rum punch by the pool! Some flight attendants would use the opportunity to relax, sunbathe, explore the island. And some use the time to go on one of the infamous catamaran trips. Where the whole crew would commandeer a catamaran and go on a day of snorkelling and shenanigans!

So this is one of those stories! A junior crew member gets to go on his very first flight to St Lucia, and is excited to get involved with the fun! But the problem with the small islands is that you are bound to run into passengers sometimes. Even if you're out at sea...

Naughtier in the Noughties - An Interview with Alex Chisnall

Season 1

Thursday, June 13, 2024 • Duration 41:09

I don't often get to publish my interviews with crew members, because so many people want to remain anonymous. Luckily for me, the guy with the MOST stories I've ever heard has agreed to let this interview be public! 2 of his stories have already been episodes - including this week's episode about the crew member being left alone in the flight deck....

A lot of the stories told on The Red Eye podcast come from days gone by. The 80's, 90's and 2000's seemed to be the prime time for mischief in the aviation industry. So we today we talk to Alex Chisnall. A British ex flight attendant who doesn't mind spilling the beans about his antics in the sky!

Alex is a podcast host himself, amongst many other things! When he launched his podcast "Screw It Just Do It" 6 years ago, two downloads illustrated no one listened
except his wife and mum. Today, it’s in the Top 1% of all podcasts globally, with 500+ episodes and listeners in 180+ countries.

He went from working as a flight attendant for Virgin Atlantic to becoming Sir Richard
Branson’s #1 business advisor at Virgin StartUp. Throughout his journey, he has had the
privilege of interviewing extraordinary individuals such as Steven Bartlett, Lewis
Howes, Jamie Laing, Fleur East, James Haskell, Lord Bilimoria, and the founders of billion-dollar brands like Lush & Ted Baker.

If you'd like to find Alex Chisnall (not if you're the bloke he got passengers to sit on though), you can find him www.podpreneur.co.uk, LinkedIn, & Instagram. and you can find Screw It Just Do It on You

The Boy's Club

Season 1 · Episode 18

Tuesday, June 11, 2024 • Duration 25:16

It used to be that you only gave the job to man. Even if that man had no clue what he was doing!

On today's episode of The Red Eye, we go back to the 90's to tell the true story of a brand new cabin crew member who was accidentally left in charge of the Boeing 747 flight deck. We learn that the rules in the aviation industry were definitely a little looser back then, and some of the old boys were very stuck in their ways....

Captain! Put Your Hat On!

Season 1 · Episode 17

Tuesday, June 4, 2024 • Duration 17:56

When a mystery meetup downroute ends unexpectedly....

As flight attendants, we have a tendency to overshare. When we're sat on boxes in the galley at 4am, when the passengers are all sleeping soundly, we share our darkest secrets and scandalous stories. This tale is one of those...

On a nightstop Johannesburg, a crew member gets a message from a mystery man asking to meet up. And the curiosity is too deep to resist!

A Bomb Hunter's Story - Through the Eyes of a Passenger

Saturday, June 1, 2024 • Duration 13:59

In today's bonus episode, we talk to army veteran Eric Herrera, author of A Bomb Hunter's Story which is available on Amazon.

We talk a lot about the journeys of the cabin crew and pilots, but there hundreds of different reasons why the passengers are taking that flight. As a flight attendant I loved to find out their why!

Eric got to fly in and out of war zones on commercial flights, and enjoy the highs and lows of flying under strange circumstances. Today, we hear his story.

We highly recommend Eric's book, A Bomb Hunter's Story. A fascinating read that gives us a glimpse into a very different life.

Tuesday, May 14, 2024 • Duration 22:00

Warning - this episode contains a story about severe turbulence and injuries on board. This could be upsetting to those with a fear of flying.

Occurrences of severe turbulence are thankfully rare. But surprisingly, the landing into Sydney can get quite bumpy and has been given the nickname "The Kangaroo Route", due to the jumping nature of the approach.

In todays episode, we follow 4 different crew members as they experience the worst turbulence of their careers. How will it affect the crew and their passengers?
