4. Pilots Are Exhausted
It’s not uncommon for pilots to work 16 hours straight without a break, which is extremely alarming considering they are responsible for hundreds of lives. Due to long flights, pilots have been known to take “cat-naps” in the cockpit to make it through. Even when they do get a break, the hotels the airlines provide them with are less than average, which doesn’t help them get the much-needed rest they deserve. Airlines are so bad, that flight attendants have delayed flights because they haven’t been able to eat for almost a day.
