Yeah, and watch for the coffee makers the women wash their nylons (or whatever else) in.

As for the shirts, I just hang them up. You won't find any creases in them, but you also won't after the first leg anyway.

No wonder my coffee was horrible the other day! Nice name...awesome commercials! I particularly like the one about the guy with road rage.

I don't drink coffee, but I have been told by more than one FA that it is true. The coffee makers are never washed anyway, but I really don't want to add a dirty sock to the dry-roasted aroma!

Just bid for all day trips then you won't need to pack much.

Yes...use extreme caution with the room irons...on many the sole plates are all screwed up, and it will stain or ruin your shirts. Also, don't iron the pants, or you'll have shiny pants! I actually carry a small iron / steamer. It hardly takes up any room and is light weight....this way I can iron my shirts and steam my pants if needed. Hanging them in the shower works too. You'll get it all figured out after a bit. It's funny how initially your bag will be about 50 lbs heavier than the captains......he's just got his system figured out. You will too.
