About

I’m Billy, short-haul cabin crew based in Sussex. Most of my trips start with an alarm I’d rather not hear, on a day I’m not even working.

This is where I write them up properly: real trips, what they actually cost, early starts, coastlines, a kayak when the weather allows, and what a day return is really like. No layover glam.
