LGA-based Flight Attendant Lisa Gregory’s journey with American spans three generations and nearly the entire history of commercial aviation. Her grandmother joined American’s very first class of flight attendants in 1933, at a time when flying required courage, resilience and a nursing background. Her mother followed in 1949 as the industry modernized and expanded. And in 1984, Lisa earned her own wings, becoming American’s first third‑generation flight attendant. Stories like Lisa’s remind us that American’s legacy is built on dedication passed from one generation to the next.
