Cabin crew staff have a very important role of making sure passengers have a smooth flight.<\/p>\n

The flight attendants also take care of travellers by serving them food and drink too.<\/p>\n

But when things aren't going too well, the workers \u2013 like everyone else \u2013 sometimes need to vent.<\/p>\n

And when they need to communicate to each other, they use very specific language to speak about passengers.<\/p>\n

Over the years, flight attendants have come up with their very own code words.<\/p>\n

Before his death, cabin crew member Owen Beddall exposed his secrets in his 2014 book Confessions of a Qantas Flight Attendant.<\/p>\n

He explained the workers would use the word "Bob".<\/p>\n

But before you think it's a just a name to remember you, it actually stands for "Best On Board".<\/p>\n

Other flight attendants have revealed in the past that there's a game called "Cheerio" that is played in the cabin.<\/p>\n

One worker wrote on a cabin crew forum: "There's the cheerio game you can play when passengers disembark."<\/p>\n
