Insulting and simply, a bad book Sharon in France I didn't have any illusions when I picked up this book. I worked for two airlines for a total of 13 years. I thought things might be exaggerated a bit. I expected it. I laughed my backside off in Airplane and I can take a joke about my job.I wish I could give this sorry book negative stars. It was just pathetic and insulting. It was so full of misinformation. No plane would be allowed to fly like that. The only person I ever. A. Vegan said Fly The Friendly Skies?. After reading Hotel Babylon, I had to get my hands on a copy of Air Babylon. The pilot's hungover, the flight attendants are drunk, the passengers are coked up, there's a corpse in the galley, and children spray vomit from row A to row K.Supposedly, this has all really happened. On board, any annoying first class passengers won't be delighted to know where their steak might have been, and economy meals are usually too sloppy.
