So far, So Good. Or supposedly. TWO NEW LAVIATORS. DL#81.

Geeez, where do I start ?! It’s seems like a decade since I blogged something. Time just flies by so quickly. Been super busy and super tired. Since I last updated the blog I went to Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), Tripoli (Libya), Tunis (Tunisia), Chennai (India) and heading to my beloved monthly Bombay/Mumbai very soon. Hey [...]

Michael Jackson / 1958 – 2009

Yo habibtis. I came back from Gatwick/Crawley this morning and was shocked to overhear a phone conversation in the crew bus. MJ had died yesterday ! Cardiac arrest some say. Who on this planet hasn’t once boogied to one of his killer tunes ? Difficult to say. He will remain one of the biggest pop [...]

Private gig with THE DEAD WEATHER…

Hello y’all. It’s been pretty hectic these past few days… I was attempting to organize some private concert with no other than THE DEAD WEATHER, Jack White’s new newest band and I have finally made it ! The band will play a sold out show at la Cigale in Paris on the 29th of June. [...]

Michelle Obama Laviates with us !

These two are freakin’ funny ! How I cracked a laugh when I saw the one with Michelle Obama !
Colon says : “KUL-MNL via Malaysian Airlines. I got left behind by my original flight back to Manila from Jakarta, so I had to purchase a last minute ticket via MH ($400 one way…Im still mourning). [...]

DOWNLOADABLES #80. Chromeo / Fancy Footwork. Update on my move…

Ever since Oz bluetoothed this track to me yesterday, I haven’t stopped playing it. It’s desperately catchy, insanely groovy and the 80’s synth-electro-rock-pop sound of the whole deal makes me wanna… boogie.
Chromeo is a Montreal based electrofunk duo whose music is described as “a shameless return to the glistening, sex-saturated synth-pop which ruled the eighties.”
The [...]

June Roster Detailed (to be updated)

Hey peeps. I got my roster for the month of June and I’m liking it. Taking into account that I’m bottom bid I only got one lonely turnaround. Bombay that is. As every month really, not a surprise. The highlight for me this month would be the layover in Bangladesh. Dhaka more precisely. I’m so [...]

Airboy does New York & Aquaventure in Dubai

Ohh man, where do I start ? This was to be a reserve month with unknown destination building up to a shitty roster. But faith had it differently. I was bound for New York, the Big Apple, The Center Of The World. I was desperate to go. I packed everything I needed : camera, laptop, [...]

Drunk : Broken Record Technique.

Ok this post will be quite short as nothing exciting happened whilst I was in London. I pretty much overslept and caught up with some much needed sleep. The hotel was the crappiest thing ever. They had put me up in the basement of the hotel. Everything in the hotel looked soooo cheap. Emirates is [...]

Airboy does Shanghai #2 + VIDEO

I haven’t been on a layover for a hell a long time and going to CBC with a cargo suitcase actually felt good. We were bound for Shanghai in China. The flight over was busy as ever and lasted around 8 hours (chock to chock). I was happy after my string of turnarounds to finally [...]

Common Flight Attendant problems : Layover Blues.

I’ve experienced such state a few times already. Doing circles in my hotel room like a goldfish in bowl. As it might sound funny from the outside, it isn’t for the one living it. Living this fast paced life can lead to all sorts of different behaviors and moods you never thought you’d go through. [...]

May Roster detailed… I heart Crew Schedz!

So you’ve probably guessed where I’ll be heading in May ! I didn’t expect much from Crew Scheduling this month as I was supposed to get a whole long month of reserve, homecalls and airport standby. None of that, nada, nicht, rien !! I got a full fledged roster with some nice layovers in tow [...]

DOWNLOADABLES #75 / Daft Diana – Massive Fear – Justice – Sharon Jones

You spin me right round with all your requests people ! I’ve been on the look out for killer mashups lately and I think I have found some pretty cool material for your bored ears. I know that it has been a while since I uploaded some stuff too, please forgive me. Today’s line up [...]

How I got lost in Al Barsha…

Today was filled with exciting new stuff I had to do. I went to visit the newly finished (not quite in fact) TECOM building which will hold the future White and Blue Building stranded. By the end of May, as previously mentioned, we will have to evacuate these two buildings and relocate. So they held [...]

In Paaaareeeeee for 8 days

Hey peeps. I’ve safely landed in Paris after some crosswinds made the approach into CDG a little more challenging for our Flight Crew. We landed with a beautiful sunset, clear skies and just the perfect spring time here. The flight over was real nice although I must say I forgot how long an hour could [...]
