I have become a blogger thanks for Ellen Simonetti, aka Queen of Sky. Her tales of life as a flight attendant gave me chuckles reading it online, and now in this book, I enjoyed her tales once more. This is proof that “It’s sure different up here.”
I know some relatives and friends who are or were flight attendants, and I have a great deal of respect for this profession. I certainly respect Ellen and her work, and take my hat off to her for her honest, yet entertaining account in “Diary of a Dysfunctional Flight Attendant: The Queen of Sky Blog.”
Reading of catching commuter flights to and from “Bustling Base City,” bidding for flights, working flights to various destinations in Latin America and Europe, and interesting layovers may make some readers wish they weren’t flight attendants, but others may be intrigued enough to give it a go. You certainly get a wonderful ride with Ellen working the cabin, so to speak.
I found it just about impossible to put down. Put yourself in the upright position, seat belt on, tray table up, and enjoy your read!

From take off to landing, “Diary of a Dysfunctional Flight Attendant” had my attention. Being a frequent flyer and blogger, the story grabbed me in the first chapter and with each “posting,” I felt as though Elena was a friend telling me about her adventures.
Her journey includes the ups and downs as a single twenty-something, culinary delights in foreign lands and the gritty job of a flight attendant. Photos from author Simonetti’s blog (which have been altered for the book) help add that authentic blog-feel.
This is a great, feel-good read for a flight, day at the beach or just curling up on the sofa.

Would you like to know what the flights crew do during their flight layovers? Could you guess why the main character of the book likes to go to Lima (Peru) once per month? or to Buenos Aires (Argentina) every time she can?
This book shares in a very direct way the life style of a Flight Attendant, doing this in a very particular way: the story becoming part of her e-diary.
Easy to read, it has interconecting stories that keep you interested until the end. Her diary include some delicious descriptions of local food and shares some romance and sex.
I recommend this book if you are pursuing a career in aviation, if you are interested in the airline industry or if you want to sit, relax and enjoy….
Have fun!

She is well-known as “Queen of Sky” who tells flight attendant’s hidden life by comical touch. If you read this book, you want to travel with “Queen of Sky”. She knows world geography by experience. She loves to fly all over the world to make good friends. She has warm heart, even hot one. Her blue-eyes never miss her customer’s favor on flight which she deals in funny way. I love both of “Chicken” and “Beef”. Can I have both?
