I was flying with an FA a few weeks ago on an aircraft configuration that has 2 FAs sitting together. There wasn’t enough space on the jumpseat for me to be able to buckle in for TTL and 1/2 of my body was just hanging off the seat because I was sitting next to an FA of size. Normally this isn’t an issue because FAs come in all sizes and shapes which is totally ok and should continue to be encouraged, but this just felt like a safety thing to me..

I feel so gross just saying anything about this but I’m not sure what to do in that situation and if I even have to do anything about it but do my best to fit.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Or have you dealt with this?

Update: I filed 2 reports. One for not being able to be buckled in the jumpseat and one for not fitting. Thank you all so much!!!

I know mint runs on T-Mobile towers amongst other things, but the prioritization system leaves me with abysmally slow data, unsent texts, and dropped calls. I also travel quite a bit throughout each month let alone each week to several parts of the world and whether I’m in the states or otherwise, I still deal with data issues.

I’ve gone back to T-Mobile with my tail between my legs but I love the idea of mint, it just wasn’t feasible for my lifestyle I guess.

Thanks for trying to help out! You all on this thread are what kept me sane.
