'The lure of open skies'

''Flight attendant résumés continue to pour in, despite turmoil in the airline industry and low starting pay


On summer days when Kandis Lovelace was a girl, she would lie on the roof of her parents' ranch-style home in Goodland, Kan., and daydream as she watched jets fly overhead.

She had never been in a plane, and air travel seemed exotic and exciting. Her parents were farmers, raising wheat and corn, and the family never had the money — or the need — to fly anywhere.

Air Tran flight attendant Kandis Lovelace carries some precious cargo down the aisle for a passenger arriving in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. A native of Goodland, Kan., she always considered air travel exotic and exciting.

Now 25 and a flight attendant for AirTran Airways, Lovelace flies much more than most people. On Thanksgiving Day, for example, she was in the air for 13 hours, finally arriving in Flint, Mich., too late for even a hotel turkey dinner. ''
