A flight attendant has shared some of the reasons why she loves her job - and has also revealed one of her pet peeves.
Kristina, 27, from Moscow, says that she has “lots of advice” for passengers, among them why fliers shouldn't buzz the crew to their seat when asking for water. The Aeroflot flight attendant explained: “Number one – don’t push the call button for asking for a cup of water because our job is hard!”

As for her favourite part of the job, Kristina Loves “welcoming passengers on board, taking care of passengers, providing any assistance if needed as well as smiling and making passengers smile.”
The flight hostess - who has six years of experience - told the Daily Star that she joined the job because her “passion is for travelling”.
She also noted: “It’s so interesting to learn about new cultures, [having] open eyes in different countries is a good experience.”
She posts about her jet-set lifestyle on Instagram, @dementevaakristina, where she has a whopping 12,200 followers. The air-hostess and influencer has visited 24 countries so far on her travels – and gets recognised for her online presence when working at 36,000ft.

Loretta Lynn, the Kentucky coal miner’s daughter whose frank songs about life and love as a woman in Appalachia pulled her out of poverty and made her a pillar of country music, has died. She was 90.
Chris Morris Music Reporter Loretta Lynn, who rose from an impoverished childhood in Kentucky’s coal fields to become a pioneering female star of country music, has died. She was 90. According to a statement from her family shared with Variety, Lynn died Tuesday in her home in Hurricane Mills, Tennessee. Memorably portrayed in an Oscar-winning turn by Sissy Spacek in the 1980 biopic “Coal Miner’s Daughter” (drawn from Lynn’s bestselling 1976 autobiography, co-authored by George Vecsey), Lynn was one of the first women to rise to stardom as a country vocalist. She dominated the charts in the 1960s (when she was the top-charting femme country singer) and ’70s (when she was second only to Dolly Parton), ringing up 11 No. 1 country hits in her own right and another five chart-toppers with Conway Twitty, her regular duet partner of the ’70s. In all, she charted 51 top-10 country singles.
