Flight Attendants Locked Up - Penny's Bay Part One
The covid pandemic dramatically changed the aviation industry. Seemingly overnight, planes were grounded, cabin crew were put on furlough and the world was shut down. Over time, some planes were able to fly again, frequently with no passengers, just cargo, and seats full of PPE. Flight attendants and pilots having to do 24 hours shifts or quarantine in hotels.
Restrictions were severe, and China was one of the strictest.
In todays story, which will take place over two parts, we hear the true story about what it was like to fly in those days. And what it was like if an entire crew was suddenly quarantined in a foreign country, with no idea when you would see you family again.
