I know Starbucks stores usually have pretty generous policies in terms of how long customers can linger around for, but this seems like a bit much, no…?
On at least five occasions in recent weeks, somewhere around 30 Asiana flight attendants have shown up at the store, only to dump their bags and then leave. The dozens of people would reportedly collectively order a total of five to ten drinks, while everyone would place their bags in chairs and on tables, preventing other customers from using them.
So, what’s the logic here? The flight attendants were reportedly in the area for visa interviews at the US embassy, and the embassy bans bringing luggage for security reasons (fair enough). However, it’s reported that flight attendants have to attend interviews in their uniforms, and airline regulations require flight attendants to carry luggage as part of their uniforms even when not flying.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
