US Airways flight attendant Bette Nash has achieved 55 years of service with the airline but her history is rather unique in my opinion.  Ms. Nash started her career with Eastern Airlines flying Lockheed 1049 aircraft and shortly thereafter transferred into the Eastern Air Shuttle operation based in Washington, D.C.  in 1961.

Ms. Nash worked this shuttle system for the next 52 years.  The Eastern Air Shuttle was operated by Eastern Airlines between New York City, Boston and Washington D.C. from 1961 until it became the Trump Shuttle in 1989.  The system was operated as the Trump Shuttle from 1989 until 1992 when it was purchased by US Airways and operated as the US Air Shuttle (old US Air) and the US Airways Shuttle (post merger with America West).

52 years serving the shuttle system is, in my opinion, a big accomplishment.  Congratulations on your service, Ms. Nash.
