As many of the Ladies have said already, communication is the only thing that will strengthen your trust and calm these fears. Most of the time my husband tells me the F/A's do their own thing. We have worked out a great system where he casually tells me a little about everyone on the crew, even if its " didn't connect with them " and what he does during his time. Never take forgranted the value of communication! When that is not as frequent its easy to fill in the space in between with worries. This and knowing how devoted we are to one another keeps me from having too may concerns.
That is very cool. I always ask DH how is crew is, and his response is always "fine". I am such an extravert and love being around people, so I like to hear about the people he works with. The only time I get a bit of detail is when DH doesn't care for the person much



Christine - I think there is a big difference between regional and mainline...DH hardly ever go out with the FA, it is usually just the CA...when he was with XJT the three all went out together.
