Merry Christmas from FlyingColors.

If you are traveling today or later in this holiday season and you want to do a good turn for your flight crew, consider buying $5.00 Starbucks cards and handing them out.  Buy your crew a cup of coffee.  Most flight crews make use of Starbucks and if they’re on a multi-leg trip, it’s quite common for one of the crew to get designated as the “coffee gopher” during a stop.  Most airports have a Starbucks and they can use that card for a better cup of coffee.

If you are flying, keep in mind that the air crew you’re seeing are generally the lower seniority, lower paid crew who are likely missing quite a bit of the holidays.  Give them a break when you can.
