I’ve Been Flying for almost Thirty Hours and The Flight Attendants Won’t Stop Crying

Thirty hours ago I hopped on a late-night flight from New York heading to Los Angeles. After boarding I saw that I had an entire row to myself. Take off passed without incident, and soon I was stretched out for a nap across the row.

I slept for a few hours, I don’t know how long, but I woke up to some severe turbulence. It’s possible that the lights in the cabin went out for a moment, but I was so disoriented that it’s hard to say.

I checked my phone to see that it was 4:03 AM, which I figured gave me about an hour until we landed. When I looked out my window, I was shocked to see nothing but wide open ocean. My jaw dropped; there’s obviously no ocean between New York and Los Angeles.

I hit the button to call the flight attendant and spent the next few minutes wracking my brain for a lake that could’ve been possibly been big enough to explain what I was seeing. I jumped when the attendant flipped off the light. She was grinning from ear to ear, and tears were pouring down her cheeks.

“How can I help you sir?” she asked.

“I froze for a moment at her reaction before deciding to just ask my question. “Where are we? Why does it look like we’re flying over an ocean?”

She wiped her cheeks to clear the tears, still grinning wildly. “Sir, we’ll be landing in about an hour.”

“I, uh, OK, thank you,” I said.

After she left I checked the clock on my phone again. 4:03 AM blinked back at me.

It hadn’t changed.

I had to have been waiting with my call light on for at least five minutes. How was it possible that it hadn’t changed at all?

I opened up my laptop and saw it too displayed 4:03 AM. I pulled out my phone, started a stopwatch in the app, and spent the next two hours looking back and forth between the clocks, waiting for them to change.

They never did.

I tapped the shoulder of an older woman sitting in the row ahead of me. She looked back, an annoyed expression across her face. “Yes?” she asked.

“Do you know how long until we land?” I asked.

She narrowed her eyes. “That flight attendant said it would be about another hour.”

I shook my head in confusion. “That flight attendant? We talked almost two hours ago! We should’ve landed already.”

She stared at me as if I was crazy. I was going to continue trying to convince her, but I felt a hand on my shoulder. I spun to see a male flight attendant grinning down at me, tears pinging off his cheeks onto my shoulder.

“Sir, I’m going to ask you to calm down, or I’ll be calling the Captain.”

I told him that wouldn’t be necessary and sat back. He removed his hand and stepped away.

The flight attendants continued to stop by every few hours offering meals. My stopwatch continued to tick up and is now telling me that I’ve been on this plane for more than thirty hours.

I’ve explored all of coach and tried talking to some of the other passengers, but they’ve all told me that they’re expecting to land in an hour or so.

Around three hours ago I tried getting into first class. I made it past the curtain but was escorted back by two grinning flight attendants. Their grip on my arms were like iron.

“Sir, the seatbelt sign is on,” one said. “Please remain in your seat with your buckle fastened. We’ll be landing in about an hour.”

I’d just about given up hope when a woman came down the aisle dressed in a business suit. She didn’t look at me or slow down, but she dropped a piece of paper onto my tray as she made her way to the bathrooms at the back of the plane.

I shot a look around before unrolling it.

It said, “Are you stuck too?”

I pulled out a pen and wrote “Yes. It’s been thirty hours.”

I folded the scrap of paper up and set it on the tray closest to the aisle. She left the bathroom and picked it up as she passed.

It’s been twenty minutes since then. I don’t know why, but I don’t think the flight attendants would like it if they knew we were talking. It doesn’t matter. I have to do something.

this one: Halloween is an annual holiday celebrated each year on
October 31. Halloween is known for costumes, pumpkins, trick-or-
treat, black cats, witches, ghosts and other spooky traditions.
Although the traditions of Halloween are well-known, its origins are
not. Halloween as we know it today originates from both Celtic
and Christian traditions. The origin of the holiday dates back
2,000 years ago with the Celtic’s ancient festival called Samhain,
which was celebrated on October 31 and marked the end of
summer and the coming of winter. This festival was celebrated the
night before their new year, November 1. According to Celtic
mythology, the night before the new year the veil between the
worlds of the living and dead was blurred, making it easier for
spirits to pass through. The Celtics dressed in costumes of animal skins, had a bonfire and
burned crops as sacrifices to their gods in order to keep the evil spirts away.
Halloween is also rooted in Christian tradition. In 690 A.D. Pope Boniface IV dedicated
the Pantheon to honor Christian martyrs. This created the Catholic feast of All Martyrs Day.
Years later Pope Gregory III would change the feast to All Saints Day to honor all of
the saints. This feast is celebrated on November 1, the same day as the ancient
Celtic new year. In 1000 A.D. the church would make November 2 All
Soul’s Day as a day to honor the dead. This day was very similar to the
Cetltic festival of Samhain, with costumes of saints and angels,
bonfires, and honoring the dead. The Christian connection to
Halloween has a lot to do with its name. The name “Halloween” stems
from the nickname for the day before All Saints Day: All Hallows Eve.
“Hallow” means holy person, in reference to the saints. The “een” in
Halloween is a contraction for “eve.” All Hallows Eve eventually was
shortened into Halloween and was popularized by a poem by Robert Burns called “Halloween.”
Over the years, Halloween has morphed into a secular holiday with the distinct traditions
we all know and love today. Probably most notable is the jack-o-lantern, which has its own
history. The tradition of pumpkin carving comes from an old Irish legend of Jack, a man who
tricked the devil and got him stuck in a tree. According to the legend, Jack let the devil go but
the devil promised he would never allow Jack’s soul to enter hell. When Jack died and was
denied entry into heaven, the devil kept his promise and denied Jack entry into hell. When Jack
asked how he was supposed to leave, the devil threw him a flaming ember to help him see his
way out. Because it was his favorite food, Jack always had a turnip with him. He hallowed out
the turnip and placed the ember inside, lighting his out throughout the world looking for a final
resting place with his “jack-o-lantern.” On All Hallows Eve, the Irish would hallow out turnips,
beets, and gourds to ward off evil spirits and keep Jack away. When the Irish immigrated to
America, they started to use pumpkins instead as they were much larger.
