Gon’ Flying: Episode 1 | Late Nights, Early Mornings *flight attendant day in the life vlog*

What up, Whitty? Just Chanel here. Welcome to the channel, y'all. Today is a flight attendant vlog. I know it has been a long time, but my brother. That was a hellcat. I ain't gonna lie, downstairs, I swear it was him. I swear that was him. My brother got me this princess drop-off and pick-up, okay, today. So I am grateful. I'm about to go into work. Y'all can see it's nighttime. Well, you didn't know that because it could have been an early morning, but it is 9.44. My sign-in is at 9.59, so I am here on time. Okay, I just love this. I love being dropped off because you can just go inside. Like, it's just, like, peaceful, you know? You don't have to worry about, like, driving and parking and do-do-do-do-do-do. So anyway, if you're new here, my name is Chanel and I create lifestyle videos as a full-time flight attendant, content creator, and entrepreneur. Over on my channel, we're all about a quality life and you deserve that, too. So make sure you check out my loose-leaf tea shop. Y'all already know I have my tea with me. There's no hot water in here yet, but I have time to do that. I have my loose-leaf tea in my infuser bottle to drink when I get to my hotel this evening. And yeah, I'm just, I'm really excited to be back at work and not wear a mask. The red lips, they're poppin'. There's a lot going on. All right, let's go to work. Y'all heard the dog barking? Question of the day. While I was on the train, a gentleman asked me, so do y'all get to go home? I mean, yeah. Maybe people don't know this, but we definitely go home. I guess I should do like a question of the day at the beginning of each flight attendant vlog, but we work anywhere from like 15, I'd say like 13 to 17 hours a month. So we, I mean, not hours, days. So we literally get more days off than somebody that would work like a full-time nine to five job. Love it here. I just saw the captain on the way down the jet bridge. I guess they were flying this plane earlier, but I'm like, where are we going? Because y'all, the airport code, first of all, it's super weird. I've never been here before. I'm in somewhere in Arkansas. So I even looked at like the board at the gate house and I don't even know, I still couldn't figure out where we were going from looking at it. So we are finishing up cleaning the plane and then I'll get on here and put my bags up. Wait, what plane are we on? Gosh. We're on a 717. I'll give you guys a tour. All right, so we have a Boeing 717 here. Here's the closet. I put my bag in there. I'll cut that out. This lavatory look. But this is the only plane we have left where you do a manual safety demo. So like, your seatbelt must be securely fastened at this time. To fasten it, insert the metal tip into the buckle. Tighten by pulling on the strap. You know, all that jazz. Okay, great. About to start boarding. I'm just gonna take a sip of tea. So I mentioned that, I don't know if I mentioned, but this is a wellness tonic and evening comfort mixed together. Wellness tonic is perfect when you're traveling because we really wanna keep our immune system strong. Obviously, we're not wearing masks anymore and you know, we've been in the house. So we wanna boost our immune systems and make sure we're still taking care of our wellness in all aspects. So this tea is so good. I love it when it's hot, especially, because it just gives you like that warming, relaxation feeling, the evening comfort. It truly is a nighttime tea. Got mint, ginger, turmeric, lemongrass, chamomile. It's just like, it makes you feel like all warm and cozy inside, you know? Infuser bottle will keep your tea warm up to two hours. So this is perfect for a flight like this. Our flight time is about an hour and 21 minutes. So I'll just be sipping on this the whole flight and then I may make more before bed, but we'll see. Made it to the hotel and this is what it looks like. I'm tired. Let me give you guys a quick telly tour. All right, so this dust area, kitchen. I'm gonna put my purse here. And then I actually really like hotels like this when it's a longer layover, because you can have the crew over and like we'll have pizza and stuff. I've done that before, which is really fun. This one has a king bed, which is nice. I always sleep on this side of the bed. I don't know why, it's freezing in here. And then a vanity area. So nice for getting ready in the morning. We'll do a little mini get ready with me, full length mirror. And then this one actually has a shower, which I've never seen one with a walk-in shower. I always see a bathtub, but because this trip is so long on overnight trips like this, I actually take a shower before I come to work and I don't shower again until I get home because we're generally only gone for like eight to 10 hours, like all together. So from the time I leave my house to the time I get home in the morning. So that's what's going on. I'm about to go ahead and get myself together. Just throw on some pajamas real quick. And we're going to sleep. I have a 445 pickup. Let's see, where's the clock? What time is it? Oh, the clock is turned over this way. It's probably because it's bright. That time is totally wrong. Okay. Okay, it's 1228. So I have right at four hours to sleep. A little under, because I got a vlog in the morning, so I got to get up earlier. Let's go ahead and get ready for bed. I always get a lot of questions about how I preserve my curls at night. And I've shared on my Instagram story before, but I don't think I've ever shared on YouTube. So just a wide tooth comb, comb it all out, get the tangles out. And I just put it into a bun, the top of my head. This is so easy. I just literally like wrap the hair around, like in the direction of the curls, and I keep the hair tie really loose. And then put a scarf around my edges, so I'm not having to like brush them too much. This just keeps my hair like super smooth. Keep the curls intact. Optional, if I had a way to get in that little hole, which sometimes I do, if it was a little looser, I would take the hair tie off, but it's all right, I wouldn't do that. All right, so that's done. And now for a quick face wash. I also bring my own hand soap with me. I get this at Target. It's a wood cedar and amber hand wash. I just usually will keep this out, because in the morning, you know, I'm washing my hands again and everything. This hotel has a makeup wipe, so that's perfect, so I can take this lipstick off, because otherwise it would probably take me like two minutes to get it off. My face burns so bad. I've been using black soap on my face, and I think I like was a little bit too aggressive, abrasive with it. Shall, put oil on my face, but I'm just gonna do like a hot towel real quick. Maybe a cool towel, brush my teeth and get in the bed. My daily detox tea. I'm gonna go ahead and make this. I just grabbed some hot water from a little shop in the airport. I'm just putting about, you know, tea right into my diffuser mug. We are going to, y'all fill it all the way up. I get a lot of emails about your bottles leaking, and they're leaking because you're filling that up way too much. So making that, and flip. Okay, same plane from last night. My two together. I didn't restock, so I can show you guys the restocking. I'm gonna put some fresh ice in here. Let's get to it. Coffee machines have a low water. I'm not sure if they're gonna work tonight. So instead of wasting coffee bags, we're gonna try to brew hot water first, and then we will see if it works. Sorry, y'all, my camera died. So I'm filming with my phone. That's why I'm hot. But anyway, I'm off work. I'm actually on my work phone and doing some stuff for training that I had to try to pick up. It's raining outside. I'm trying to catch the after work vibes. Decided to come get breakfast because I don't have any food at my house. So breakfast while I finish this assignment for work. Yeah, y'all, I'm in full uniform, so I'm over here in the corner. But I'm checking with you guys when I get my food and before, of course, I close out the vlog. I don't know how I just drank my coffee this fast, child. I'm gonna be jittery. But I'm doing so many things. My brother called me out. He was like, you are doing a thousand things right now. Like, I really am. Like, I was just on the phone with Amazon. I'm literally still doing my Delta work. I had to flip it over because of some things that, you know, can't share to the public. Business stuff. Oh yeah, here's the Instagram story. Y'all, literally so much going on in the uniform. Thank you so much. Looks so good. Where'd I find this kid, by the way? It's one of my favorite breakfast spots because of the chicken sausage. Oh, really? No. Hey, all right, y'all. Literally, sorry about my front camera. Literally the same place I'm starting the vlog, at the vlog, in the car. Thank you guys so much for watching today.
