"On a recent JetBlue flight from L.A. to Boston, a source says a female flight attendant slipped single Gyllenhaal a note on a napkin, inviting him to hang out with the crew. "He came back to chat with everyone for the rest of the flight", says the source. They were shocked!" -US Weekly

"French costume designer Jean Louis was known for dressing Hollywood royalty -- from Rita Hayworth to Marilyn Monroe -- but he also dressed flight attendants for United Airlines.
Mejia said many airlines had physical requirements and weight restrictions for its flight attendants. One went so far as to insist that its stewardesses keep identical hairstyles, wear the same brand of makeup and matching nail polish.
"They had to be single, they had to be gorgeous", Mejia said. "Some airlines required you to have good legs. There were very physical requirements."

The sexist rules changed with the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Stewardesses challenged the industry and were successful in removing discriminatory policies based on sex, race, age, weight and marital status.Leonardo DiCaprio surrounded by flight attendants in "Catch me if you can" (2002)
