Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we break down one of the toughest topics for flight attendants: no shows. What really happens when you miss an assignment? Can you fix it by calling back in? How do no shows affect reserves differently from line holders? And what should you do if commuting issues get in the way?
We’ll talk through:
-The difference between attendance and performance tracks.
-How reserves can protect themselves and avoid doubling their risk.
-What to do in commuting failure situations (and why honesty matters).
-When it might actually be smarter to just accept the points and move on.
-Resources and leave options available if your points start adding up.
It’s time to rethink the way we look at no shows—not as a personal failure, but as part of the system we work under.
