The Secret Life of a Pilot
In aviation, not everything is as it seems. Behind the polished uniforms and calm voices, pilots are often seen as the ultimate steady partners — respected, reliable, and trustworthy. But what happens when the image doesn’t match the reality? In this episode of The Red Eye, we follow Evie on a dreamy layover in the Maldives, where she meets Greg, a first officer whose seemingly perfect relationship with the flight manager sparks admiration — and envy. But when chance encounters and small crac...

After the Landing - An Aviation Mental Health Story
At The Red Eye, we tell true stories from the skies and the ground. They’re funny, heartbreaking, and sometimes downright shocking - but today’s story is different. It isn’t just about a dramatic in-flight medical emergency. It’s about the emotional toll it left behind, and what happens when the strength we’ve relied on for so long suddenly cracks. The crew member who donated this story, a seasoned flight attendant and cancer survivor, has weathered countless red-eyes. But when a passenger co...

Bursting the Bubble - Flying during the Pandemic
It was a crazy time in the height of the Pandemic. Many people in aviation lost their jobs, and thousands of cabin crew and pilots lives were shattered.

But there were strict protocols to follow, and harsh consequences for anyone who broke them. In today's episode, we hear what happens when a girl is faced with temptation... Will she burst her bubble? ...

Are Cabin Crew Just a Number...?
One of the biggest issues in the aviation industry, and amongst flight attendants right now, is the fact that many airlines treat their employees as just a number. And yet they expect them to treat their passengers as VIPs. Air Canada cabin crew recently went on a strike due to poor working conditions, and airlines have been using "covid" as an excuse for reducing rest days and numbers of crew working a flight. Meaning your cabin crew are exhausted and feeling unappreciated. That's not ...

Night Flight Vigilance
As cabin crew are required to be able to react quickly in emergency situations on the aircraft, they are always on the lookout for something out of the ordinary. Whether that is a passenger who has had too much alcohol, a passenger acting suspiciously, someone who may be feeling unwell, or even something wrong with the aircraft. Flight attendants are always vigilant and ready to deal with anything thrown at them. Just perhaps not more than one emergency on the same flight! In today's true sto...

The Liquids Ban - An Aviation Rule Origin Story
It's been nearly 19 years to the day since we have had restrictions on taking liquids through onto the aircraft. Almost 2 decades of decanting our toiletries into small containers, of getting held up because we forgot to empty our water bottles, and countless expensive bottles of perfume have no doubt been confiscated. For pilots and flight attendants, it changed the way we work! Do you remember why though? It's something we are so used to now that many of us don't remember what led us to tha...

The Layover Liability - Pilot Mischief!
Most pilots are incredibly upstanding people. They have a very serious job that has taken years of training and discipline. But they do also need to be good with people. Working as a team is crucial for both safety reasons, and for a smooth trip with colleagues when you reach your destination. So when we were told this true story of a pilot causing scandal and upset whilst down route in Jamaica, we couldn't believe that he'd gotten through the recruitment process without someone spotting that...

It's crazy when you think about it, but every pilot must have their first ever flight with passengers on. We will never know about it, but up the front that rookie pilot with a handful of flying hours in their pocket will be sweating, nervous and then haul a whopping great aircraft into the air with real live people on it.
