🌐 new new new hires! What comes in the starter uniform package??

5 Upvotes

Senior-ish 🌐! My girlfriend is graduating training and I’m thinking of buying her some pieces but I don’t want to double buy her anything cause these shits are pricey. What does the starter kit get?

Also is there anything you wish you had when you first started on the line? Love you 👻

I am a passenger with severe endometriosis - do you think it's allowed for an FA to fill my hot water bottle during the flight?

Hello everyone, I hope you're doing okay. I apologize if this question isn't allowed in this subreddit, or if you don't accept questions from passengers in general. Thanks for what you do!

Anyway, yeah, the question is in the title. I have a 10+ hour flight tomorrow (not on a budget airline, if that matters) and I just got a very painful period. I will have meds with me but unfortunately a heating pad or hot water bottle just works the best for me. I assume the heating pad is no go because that seems dangerous, but do you know it's permitted to fill a passengers hot water bottle? I'm flying from the eu.

I only ask because I have limited baggage space, so if it seems like it will be a no go, I'll just find another way to manage. I can also imagine that there may be weird safety regulations around this that I'm not aware of.

Thanks so much💗

Listing and what is considered double listing…

3 Upvotes

I’m looking at flights from FCO to anywhere in the US. For a carrier that doesn’t allow double listing (AA) are you allowed to list for same origin city to different destinations? Or is this also considered double listing? I’m not entirely versed on these non revving rules and would hate to break them! Sincerely, a stew just tryna get home. I’ve looked through the travel planner rules and am having trouble finding the answers. Thanks in advance for any help or guidance.
