Anyone who’s ever worked in retail, hospitality, or really any kind of people job knows the best part about an everchanging clientele is being able to spot out good lookers to your colleagues.
This is quite easy if you’ve worked in a bar.
You simply whisper in your friend’s ear “the one with the pink top drinking a VB” and immediately, they’ll know who you’re talking about.
But spare a minute to think about poor flight attendants who are unable to simply point and describe.
No no, flight attendants have thought of a much sneakier – and niftier – way of pointing out hotties; through code language.
You read that right, this whole time you’ve been politely smiling at flight attendants while listening in on their conversation, they may have been talking about you. Or the 6’4″ blonde guy behind you.
Speaking to KIIS FM’s Kyle & Jackie O, an ex-flight attendant, James, took it upon himself to spill all on flighties’ ingenious hottie code.

Host Jackie O asked if flight attendants use a code to talk about ‘hot’ passengers without them knowing.
James answered: “We do… because obviously when we’re in the cabin and we’re getting the drinks we can’t be like, ‘oh doll, check out him…”
“You have to be subtle about it,” Jackie asked.
“Do you say like ‘G3 really hot dude, or have you got something else?” she said.
“Well that’s really obvious!” James replied.
“Because everyone knows their seat numbers, so we’re on the cart and he’ll be like, ‘I’m thinking of doing seven days in America… being ‘seat 7A”.
“And I’ll be like, ‘yeah, I could do seven days in America!’
“Or like, six days in Denmark… (seat 6D)?”
So there you have it ladies and gentleman, it’s time to know your seat number off by heart, on the off chance a cute flighty wants to spend “11 days in Europe”.
