Hi Josh!
Cabin crew in Australia here! We are allowed to use electronic devices while deadheading but are still expected to be professional and discreet on board. I think what made it look so bad in this instance is she was slouching and her attitude overall seemed very negative.

We can also deadhead in business attire if we choose to. We sometimes get upgraded but only if there’s spare seats. If we are regraded into business we get served last.

Hi Josh! American Airlines crew member here.
At AA when deadheading and occupying any seats other than the jump seat we are allowed to use our electronic devices and/or headphones. And we certainly enjoy this freedom which until I heard coworkers from other airlines in your video just a second ago saying otherwise seemed to me the most normal thing in the world!
Needless to say that what we should look into is our posture. As deadheaders we are allowed to board at any time as long as the minimum crew is on board. so it’s frequent to be in a similar situation with revenue passengers still boarding. Never once I’ve see somebody laying halfway down with open legs or sitting down so inappropriately.
That’s the point that hasn’t yet been made here. The crew member could have be seated gratuitously upright and being at her/his/their cellphone and go utterly unnoticed.
Regards and keep up the good spirit!

I'm a Cabin Crew member myself, if this was me at my airline, I would get terminated at the spot. We board last and aren't allowed to use the phone at all while deadheading, not to mention to dine next to a paying customer. We are asked to stay professional whenever we wear our uniform since we are still brand ambassadors, on and off duty. But looking at her attitude she doesn't really seem to care and suffers from a massive attitude... ruining it for everyone else!

I'm crew for a US domestic carrier. As far as deadheading goes, crew do indeed travel in the cabin in uniform but they are still to be professional. Our crew can relax and be on their phones while sitting in the cabin as long as they are not jumpseat. Technically they are considered working crew but things are more relaxed for them as deadhead. I'm of course only speaking for my own carrier that I work for. Not sure what other US carriers rules are.

I’m a flight attendant with a major airline in the United States. When deadheading we are required to wear our uniform while deadheading, I normally just wear a jacket hiding my uniform and act normal. My airline doesn’t have any rules against being on phones while deadheading. But out of respect toward paying passengers I just act normal and respectful during boarding

Hey Josh i am cabin crew in the US and when we deadhead we are allowed to use our phone/earphones iPads whatever we want and in uniform. That’s common here in the states because we are usually deadheading around the states to work flights all over.

On Iberia, the pilots sometimes go and take a seat in business class (long haul), no problem with me. But sometimes funny incidents, like the pilot reeks of cigarette smoke… pr you asked for a particular desert, told me they ran out, just to see a few minutes later the pilot eating it… as he was sitting next to me, I told him, damn your icecream is tasty, pitty they ran out, got one a minute later 😊

[denisesommer-roque]

When you are travelling as deadhead crew, discretion is key. You act as low key as possible and make yourself almost invisible so people do not notice you are travelling as crew. We were taught even flying privately on crew rebate tickets, to act professionally and discrete. This lady was a quite frankly a disgrace!

[phf]

I’m a cabin crew working at one of airlines in Middle East. Wearing uniform during deadheading is a MUST, be it 1 hour or 16 hour flight. There’s no restriction for using mobile phone or other electronic devices. We’re completely free to use that.

Operating crew will treat us same like normal passengers. We also get the same meal. Sometimes we get business class seat too, it depends.

When I worked for TW and travelled on a free pass or heavily-discounted fare on another airline our rule-book clearly stated that we were "not to talk shop" if we were conversing with another passenger. We were expected to be freshly showered, clean shaven, and appropriately dressed. I always adhered to that rule.

I love how Josh gets himself fucked up everytime he travels with vistara

11:42 Airport worker lashing out on the video that Josh recorded

[andreaslenz]

I am a crew member of the LH group and when we are "dead heading" in uniforms, we, of course are not allowed to behave unprofessional in any way, but this does NOT include the use of our mobile phones, as long as we use it discretely, ie no phone calls as long the fasten seat belt sign is on, like expected from the passengers.

[joshualau]

I find right-hand boarding rather strange, especially with the cargo pit so close. Loading/offloading gets a bit complicated with the catering truck in the way, now imagine having to load that with air stairs, busses, and passengers?

Plus I also think it is a security concern with passengers and baggage in such close proximity to each other.

Hello! I'm an ex Jet Airways(India) and Qatar Airways(Qatar) crew. In Qatar, you cannot use your mobile when you are in your uniform. However, In India, because of on time performance(otp) the Indian airlines might ask the dead heading crew to take the last row seats and be seated there as they do not have enough space in the galley and the R1(Galley crew) might be extremely busy attending the captains, 12 business guests(with on ground services), closing, arming doors etcs.(I'm talking from my experience from Jet Airways) We could use our mobiles however we later got a notification to be discreet about it).
Also, the ground staff might have asked you about your filming as in 2016, because of safety reasons, filming outside the aircraft/taking pictures were prohibited. This rule was implied on everyone, passengers and crew members. For pictures, we had to take permission from the commander(PIC). This crew could sit in her uniform and use her mobile(if the company allows her to do so) however, her body language is giving extremely negative vibes and because of her actions, the company might face a bad reputation.
