True tales of scandal, mischief and downright crazy behaviour at 30,000 feet What is it about air travel that brings out the craziest, rudest and most ridiculous side of human nature After fourteen years as an air steward Elliot Hester still doesn't know. However, he does know all about crazy passengers, stressed-out crew and the infamous Mile High club. A tell-all expose from real-life experience, Air Confidential reveals what really goes on behind the scenes and down the aisles of aeroplanes everywhere. We meet Miguel Mendoza, the playboy of the skies; Big Bertha, the flight attendant from hell; and the arrogant business man so terrified of mild turbulence he cries all the way to Miami. Packed full of scandalous tales of drunkenness, debauchery and generally bad behaviour (and not just from the passengers), these stories are so funny you'll choke on your complimentary mini-pretzels.

Elliot Hester worked in advertising after graduating from New Mexico University. The glamorous appeal of modelling lured him away, but he found himself working as a baggage handler at Chicago airport to make ends meet. During the coldest winter on record Elliot asked himself why he was working outside on the runway rather than inside a nice warm plane, and a fourteen-year career of crazy adventures in the air began.
