This documentary was made by ABC to promote the network's dramatic television series Pan Am.
The series, Pan Am, is an American period drama television series created by writer Jack Orman. Named for the iconic Pan American World Airways, the series features the aircraft pilots and stewardesses of the airline as it operated in the early 1960s at the beginning of the commercial Jet Age.
Pan Am premiered on ABC on September 25, 2011, and ended on February 19, 2012. ABC subsequently canceled the series on May 11, 2012.
The complete-series DVD was released on January 29, 2013 through Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. Mill Creek Entertainment re-released that format on August 13, 2019. It is also available on Apple iTunes and Amazon.

In 1972 i was a 17 year private with orders to Germany. Shortly after take off a stewardess approched and said the captian wants to see you. Somewhat suprised and wondering why The Captian wanted to see me I nervously followed her forward. Soon she stopped and pointed to a stairway and said you go relax up there, I’ll come get you before we land. I never forgot the kindness of that woman and her show of support for a soon to be homesick young man. Years later I watched in amazement when Pan Am committed to empty the orphanges of South Vietnam. Military aircraft were legit targets in those bitter years and Pan Am leadership decided they would get the children. Watching footage of those crew memebers is peak Pan Am and I am sure the stewerdess who was so kind to me was front and center during that foul evacuation. They did their duty and then some. Thank you.

I was hired a bit behind these ladies, but I remember working with some of them. What these ladies are saying are all true. Also, the "steward/esses" were all classy and well educated. Our pilots were the best of the best in aviation. We were treated very well all over the world and our company ID seemed to carry more "weight" than the passport sometimes. Forever thankful for those years.

This is so important. I’ve seen how ugly people can get when they treat people as servants and treat them horribly. I work at a restaurant and I’ll never forget how some lady got upset about her order and shoved hot soup back at one of our employees. The soup must have been over 180° and it got on her hands and burned her. Can’t believe the audacity that people conduct themselves with. It is not okay to physically abuse people in that manner.

It was an absolute pleasure to have flown with the best “true professional” Flight Attendants at PanAm in my 34 years of flying 121. Only flew for PAA for 2.5 years ending in 1991. And, going on the another “Major” for the final 24 years, I vividly remember how the PAA FAs epitomized the word “professional” especially in appearance and courtesy. PAA really took care of their people on layovers. Fondly recall many of the great places we stayed. The best of the best. Thank you….it was a pleasure to have shared the sky with these professionals……RC

I was blessed in many ways growing up, but a favorite memory was flying to the Orient on the wonderful Pan American Airlines in 1965-1968! My Dad was a Country Musician and we went on tour with him. It was exactly as it is shown, a world apart from what flying is now! The experience of flight with Pan Am was different from other airlines. I remember having to dress up to fly. The stewardess would give me tons of goodies to eat, let me be a "jr-stewardess" and help hand out peanuts and snacks to passengers. We got free cards, toys, and our own "official wings" to wear. All the ice cream and cokes we could take. It was always common to hear from friends & family when you arrived " You probably ate on the plane right? How was the flight?". Flying now is nothing but a glorified bus in the US. Other places in the world have better airlines than us for some reason. It was real china, crystal glasses, and silverware, and now "first class" costs more than ever and you get plastic plates and plastic cups and picnic plastic flatware. Such a shame the generation today doesn't get to experience the thrill of flying the way it was in the 1960s and early 70s.

Born 1961, i remember having a Flight from Zurich to London with my Mother. 1967/68? With Pan American Airways. No Backpacks or Rukksacs. No Jeans or Shorts or Flipflops. Only Men in Suits and Women in Travel Costumes (although i DO remember these Mini skirts...😂). But somehow flying at that time was more exclusive. Everyone was "Dressed up". And Mama, of course, after Takeoff, opened her Beige Crocodile Leather Handbag (she had matching SHOES!), took out her Cigarette case, lit her Cigarette and ordered a Whisky Soda. Everyone did, before being served with a delicious Lunch . . .

Recalled the scene in "Catch Me If You Can" when kids were running to get a pilot's autograph - someone commented that flying was only for the rich, that flight attendants were like supermodels. It looks like they were not exaggerating. Truth is, most would-be Pan-Am passengers today would fly private planes. If the airline existed, it would be a private charter.

He was the President - he had the best interpreters in the world working for him. And I know that nobody there thought he said he was a jelly donut because that story didn't start until the '80s. It would be like saying you called somebody a deli sandwich if you called him a hero - nobody would think that. And yes, Pfannkuchen is hard to pronounce!

Enough rose-colored glasses. PanAm was an anti-trust cabal run by executives so lacking in leadership talent and vision that they went out of business. Over just under a decade, they crashed eleven 707’s in the Pacific, almost losing their air carrier certificate. You read that right, eleven. You may pine about the good old days all you want, but very few people could afford those tickets and the large network carriers today, are far, far more reliable, safe, inexpensive and capable of getting you damn near anywhere in the world. Do we really want to go back to the days of second hand smoke throat cancer and taxpayer subsidized airline services? The legacy carriers today actually make money for their shareholders and have a near perfect level of safety. Nobody is stopping any of us from getting dressed up before a flight. Quit complaining about it and put on a tie and jacket or a dress. “Be the change” and all that.

Aside from your error regarding the 707 incidents (yes I read that right, and you are wrong)... But Yes, compared to the utter shitstorm that is flying today, I'd happily go back to a bit of second-hand smoke and more respectable passengers. I've flown both before and after deregulation. Enough shit-coloured glasses. Flying was better before deregulation in nearly every way. I do nevertheless appreciate the lack of skyjackings today compared to then, even if TSA is a pain in the arse.

So I went back and reviewed. Sure enough, it's only ten 707 hull losses. The 1959 accident aircraft was returned to service. (PAA115) So ten complete hull losses. Hundreds of dead passengers and the FAA coming very close to revoking their air carrier certificate. So you're technically correct, I was "wrong" (Off by one.) But you're so arrogantly sure of your ignorance, that you reflexively tell me I'm wrong, even going so far to incorrectly refer to these horrible accidents as incidents. You then double down on the stupidity and claim that well-behaved passengers were somehow more important than people's lives? Unlike you, I know the technical differences between what what was done back then and what was done now. We may not have food from Maxim's and size zero hostesses, but we don't kill you. And we actually make money for the shareholders. It's a much better experience now. If you actually know what you're looking at.

You did not mention that the real steward's were male. Just like the trains. Then with the war, females replaced them.

Correct. The original stewards and the pioneers of this career were indeed all male.

This video is a total disappointment. Instead of hearing what the stewardesses are saying, their voices are covered over with some garbage music. You should have entitled this video "The Silent Stewardesses of Pan Am" ! It's not fair to the stewardesses to invite to participate in a video and then black out they are saying.

I am watching this show right now, still in the begining, and I already love it. 💙🤍💙 I think that for some of us ladies with a nostalgia for former times when flying was glamorous, classy, exciting, and a true adventure, this show hits the heart. When I was younger, I wanted to be a flight attendant, but back then, in my country, you had to be a certain height, and I was just barely too short. I had all the other qualifications: nice legs, figure, pretty, friendly, and spoke several languages. My life would have been totally different had I been able to work as a stewardess. But even if I could have done it, Pan Am was gone.... Pan Am is legendary, and to me, synonymous with a much better time and a better world. Loved this little documentary. 💙🤍💙
