If you consider falling in love with an Orangutan over lunch “ordinary” then you might find these stories “ordinary” but I doubt it!
This is an "insiders" look at how airline employees used to travel in the good ole days, before Covid, fax machines and mandatory reservations!
Cindy and her husband, Bart were fellow airline employees back in the day when we could jump on and off flights to get anywhere in the world, for free!
They have traveled around the world and have seen more in their travels than ten other couples combined!
You’ll hear how they traveled, with no reservations, just winging it and how that sometimes got them in pretty serious trouble!
Like when they had a flat tire in the middle of the African savannah in their sophisticated safari vehicle, a tiny Datsun 210, in the middle of a pride of lions.
And how Cindy kept watch, out the window, as Bart got out of the car to change the tire!
Then it was love at first sight in Singapore for Cindy, when she fell in love with an Orangutan over lunch!
These are stories from what I call “The Glory Days of Aviation” when travel was a true 1st Class adventure, complete with 5 course meals crossing the pond to Europe and beyond.
If you dare to be jealous at how we traveled, “free as birds” in the good ole days, then you’ll love Cindy’s book, ‘Life on Standby’.
