Shipped out to Calgary to operate to Fort McMurray and Kelowna I was!
What a fine September morn when we started our voyage. Western flying is so lovely I thought to myself as the day went by, soon enough I found it to be evening. I go about my FA duties like I do on every flight, passing through the cabin offering my beverage service when I get a call from the Flight Deck. "LISE COME UP FRONT IMMEDIATELY!" Expecting an emergency I quickly gather all my service equipment stow everything securely, put my blazer on, grab the emergency procedure booklet and knock on the flight deck door to come in. They open the door and I prepare for an emergency briefing. "Look at the lights!"
My pilots only wanted to show me the northern lights. BY CALLING ME TO THE FRONT IN THE MOST ALARMING WAY POSSIBLE! But were they ever gorgeous! I'm so glad they did otherwise I never would have noticed. I must have been in the flight deck for quite some time staring in awe.
When I returned to my service I was grinning like the Cheshire cat till the end of the flight. What a great experience.
Of course they realized how terrified I was when I entered the flight deck so inevitably the called me up in the same manner the next day to show me the Rockies.
