I love flight attendants, I really do, but they tend to be a jealous bunch. The way they turned one popular flight attendant who was making a name for herself on TikTok strikes me as nothing but jealousy.
Pure Jealousy: Flight Attendants Turn On Their Racy Colleague
Cierra Huffman, who goes by Cierra Mistt on social media, was a flight attendant for Republic Airways, which operates regional flights on behalf of American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, and United Airlines. She no longer is, though claims to be a flight attendant for another airline.
On TikTok, she has more than 3.5 million followers and posts videos like “spicy flight attendant secrets” or “how to get upgraded to first class for free” which strike me as lacking much value, but also harmless. She’s offered tips on how to join the Mile High Club, warned about airline coffee, and also raised controversy by saying she will hang out with “hot” passengers during her layovers:
“Yes, flight attendants and pilots during our layovers we don’t only hang out with each other, we actually hang out a lot of times with our passengers.
“Whether it be a really hot guy or girl, or just a fun group of people, if you invite us to go hang out with you guys chances are we’re totally down.”
Over the years, I’ve hung out with flight attendants in cities all over the world. It’s hardly a unique thing or reserved for “hot” people. Generally speaking, I find it great fun to hang out with flight attendants.
But some of her TikTok videos have been floating around online flight attendant chat rooms and her channel was recently flooded with hundreds of comments from angry flight attendants attacking her for “spreading false information” and placing flight attendants in a bad light. These flight attendants must have “reported” her channel or videos as inappropriate because Mistt was temporarily banned, though that ban was quickly lifted.
Responding to all of this, Mistt said:
“The only thing that these comments are showing me is how bored you are, how jealous you are, how insecure you are. Get a life. I will continue to say whatever I want.”
Preach girl.
She’s right. The flight attendants who have attacked her are jealous. I don’t agree with much of her advice, but I admire the following she has built up and that her short videos are quite entertaining. I don’t see them as harmful.
CONCLUSION
Flight attendant Cierra Mistt has built up a loyal fan base on TikTok. Her colleagues are jealous. They tried to get her shut down, but she has prevailed…at least for now. I would not look to her for upgrade advice, but I do find her videos entertaining.

I await the puritans in the comment section with righteous indignation.
Ain’t nobody jealous of her trash.
The issue is she is trashing the industry
Spreading false information
Using other peoples content and getting them in trouble by their employers because of her false lies of hook ups etc.
Heck no regional plane even has crew bunks
She’s trash
Jealous my azzzzzz. This trailer trash is telling nothing but stories for attention. Look at how she displayed the uniform she is wearing with her boobs hanging out. Of course she is going to have a large followers. Whatever it takes.
I agree that it trashes the industry, Like prostitutes in the sky. There is always a few in a bunch that has to ruin it for decent people . That’s how they get attention
Now in my late 50s with decades of people watching and talking to a lot of women, women are much more “catty” than guys. I’ve had a couple of female friends and they would tell me they have very few female friends because they don’t care for the drama and cattiness of many women.
Guys tend to talk sports, work, etc. and not about relationships or constantly pick on other guys for the relationships they are in, or how they dress, etc. Now I think all of my guy friends are straight so maybe it is different with gay people but that has been my experience.
This lady is definitely attractive and is trying to have fun and make a few dollars. I don’t think anything she does can make a bad name for FAs. FAs have had a reputation, rightly or wrongly, for many decades. It hasn’t just occurred because of this person.
Agreed 100%.
We gay men are not all bitchy queens who love spilling the tea on people and reading them. Most of us are just pretty normal guys who talk about work and sports, or who go online and talk about things like, oh, flying too often than is really healthy. From what I’ve seen, we’re also a lot less likely to hit on the male FAs than straight guys on the female FAs.
As for this young lady, if you take yourself public like this and cultivate a persona like she has, then it’s almost inevitable that there would be backlash. She seems to have handled it well, though.
And witches like this perpetuate the myth. Sorry Rich. It’s a job
Her current airline would have rules of ethics to adhere to or should have real soon. Knowing this, whatever penalty she gets is self inflicted. Maturity and thought should have been exercised before she started her tik toc site. She wanted to start a brand, get sponsors and be a Kardashian like wannabe. You’re in the wrong biz babe, get a 9-5.
Without a sample of the responses to her videos that support the characterization as jealous or detrimental it’s difficult to ascertain what is accurate.
I just find her annoying.
Sure, there might be a jealousy component to it, but if she really is spreading misinformation and making the industry look bad, why wouldn’t other flight attendants call her out? Think about how you would react if someone in your vocation did those things. Wouldn’t you protest the damage being done? And then what outrage would you feel if your protest were being waived off as jealousy?
She obviously has a knack for fiction.
Trash? Whatever. Annoyingly stupid? Yes.
In many of her videos her airline affiliate is easily seen.
It’s obvious her videos are not serious (like a couple of other flight attendants from the same airline – which ARE worth while looking at). Hers are meant to be fun and flirty- and that’s about all they are. Nothing really worthwhile to look at – in fact after 4 or 5 you’ll move on! (Yawn!)
Islam is right about women.
We all know sex sells.. If the girls have the face , body and demeanor to pull it off. Hooray.!
I agree sex sells and women know it. She could make money selling flight attendants panties
She’s a liar, liar and pants on fire!, yuck. Again how could she have so many followers? Really?
Her Insta page has many racy photos. The problem with the FA videos/pics is it demeans the profession. Not seeing any proof of jealousy. As a nurse I’ve seen my profession demeaned in the same way and it’s offensive. Do your thing on insta but leave our respective professions out of it.
Nobody cares.
Her Creativity Uniqueness Nerve and Talent is on full display. And like Duke said, NO ONE CARES. She feels a need to fill a void in this rapidly transparent “I’m really important” social media world we all now live in. FAs are more important than anyone sitting their asses down in those seats knows. She belittles the profession. See You Next Tuesday, Cierra!
Hi Matthew, there is a lot more history apparently. Seems she has a history of posting crap: https://lolcow.farm/snow/res/1371005.html
Wow. That’s a lot of history.
Lmao, looks like Matthew Klint didn’t do any research before posting this article about a person who is clearly unhinged. Good journalism Klint, bravo!
Yeah, not seeing the jealousy angle. Other than it being a tired misogynistic trope.
Stop giving her attention and publicity. Please!
Matthew, her content seems harmless to you because you are not a flight attendant. Videos like here resurrect the public view of flight attendants as sex objects and encourage harrassment. The last thing most of us want is passengers badgering us about going out after work or trying to find us in our bunks. Our objections to her content are borne of self protection rather than jealousy and also nobody likes a liar.
It would appear she’s a former FA, NOT a currently serving one, trying to make a few bucks and a “celebrity name” for herself from blogging, etc., using whatever “experience” she might have gained in the skies and adding a fair dose of ‘creative license’ to her postings. I guess it’s better than flogging underwear and tights on line.
I wouldn’t hold much confidence in anything she has posted and would imagine the FA backlash isn’t spurred by jealousy, but annoyance and frustration that this ex FA isn’t representing the majority of those who fly to serve
Maybe they’re jealous over her big boobs, otherwise there is nothing to write home about much less an article for the masses, with all due respect. I don’t want to attack her
Isn’t this the same FA who advises travelers to sit in the back row of the plane to cadge an upgrade to first class seating? A DYKWIA FA!
What’d she pay you to post this article? lol. Jealous.. you typically get jealous when you’re feeling envious of someone else’s achievements or position. What is it, that this individual has achieved, or what position is she in, to evoke feelings of envy from other FA’s? She had a brief stint working at $20/hr for a regional airline and staying in holiday inns in places like Montrose, Colorado. She was then fired for violating every bullet point of her company’s social media policy. There is absolutely nothing to covet here.
Everything she says is cringe-worthy, non-factual, or just fabricated. any smart flight attendant does not want some huge following, because it’s incredibly easy to lose your job for what you post online.
The girl is an embarrassment to our profession – and people are calling her out for it. She looks like the type to sleep on the jumpseat and eat her food in full view of the passengers. A mess, an embarrassing mess. nobody is jealous of the travesty lol
You obviously you don’t understand how hard many of us worked to get away from the stupid, bimbo flight attendant stereotype. For most of us, our displeasure with her posts doesn’t have anything to do with us being “jealous.“ It is about not wanting to be looked at or regarded in such an unprofessional and inaccurate way again, especially by someone who may not even be in the industry anymore.
Does anyone not see she is only talking about her and her flirtatious personality. Not saying she a hoe. But she a … People have to do what they have to do. Its up to the person on how they want to exploit there own sexual behavior. When she says jealous. Its because she is getting ran through enjoying the process of her being her. She says she likes her behavior and putting it out to be controversial and hopes every girl can get that to happen to them like she does. Just her own experience because not every girl wants and thinks as she does. Some just want to work. Most likely these are just controversial topics she either wants to happen more often in which they do rarely. A lot of those planes regional dont have sleeping quarters. My experience is your experience. That is what she wants. And points it towards jealousy to not feel awkward and alone doing the rare things she is doing. She wants to feel included and does not want people to judge what she is doing when she puts it out there the rare situations.
Disagree, while she is entertaining and I personally like her. Actually for most major airlines you can not speak to media or post content in uniform for legal implications toward the company you work for. I do not agree with this article.
A flight attendant hanging out with passengers? Never. Never happened to me. Even when I was young. LOL.
Mind you, My sister as a (former flight attendant MARRIED a pilot and had two kids together! But are since divorced. Pilots can be as.s.es.
Maybe she’s just trying to be social and have fun or have a KID perhaps? Let her have fun. And she’s available! LOL!..
We’re not jealous. I know you guys have no idea how much unwanted sexual attention we get. You have to think about your safety ALL the time. She just plays into that “oh we don’t really mean it boys” it’s frustrating because we really just want to do our jobs, keep you safe and go home.
Of course THIS guy would be a fan of hers. He’d probably be down to joining the mile high club with her and be in one of her trailer trash stories.
Horrible take. Disagree with you totally, but that’s okay. I respect your opinion.
Update: Cierra is currently in critical condition after attempting to take her own life from the harassment and damage that this targeted attack by her colleagues. Her father is in the process of filing a lawsuit against tiktok as well as any airline associated with these employees (flights attendants). Her tiktok will remain removed until further notice as per her wishes. Will keep you updated.
Please do. I’m so sorry to hear this.
Sorry but Tik Tok is not to blame here. I love the mentality of passing blame and suing everyone because of your own mistakes. She needs to grow a backbone if she wants to play online. If she cant handle comments she has no place on the internet.
Im glad she didnt succeed in taking her own life as no one deserves to lose their life over anything,
Aside from half of what she says being total BS, she’s cringey af. She’s a regional fa pretending like she’s some international jetsetter. I’m definitely not jealous because I’m a guy. I’m surprised her account hasn’t gotten her fired yet. Fingers crossed.
People are not Jealous of her. Shes an idiot thats all
Either the writer Mathew has raging hormones for this girl, or he as much an attention w____ as she is. Her information is titillating but not real. If Matthew here was such a seasoned traveller he’d know that. Kinda pathetic.
No raging hormones, but she has made a series of popular, harmless videos. I fail to see the problem and find it deplorable so many have attacked her.
Comsidering what you do as a profession, I’m suprised you are so enamored with this Woman,
You can see my email, so you know who I represent.
You have lost our complete respect.
Yeeeaaahhhh…. she makes flight attendants look trashy. Nobody who values their job is hooking up in crew rest or flight decks. Seems like her videos are just clickbait to get people to subscribe to her onlyfans account. Which; make your money girl. But maybe find a way to do it without lying about what flight attendant life is actually like
She’s just filthy garbage
Being a tart is not cool!
Being bitter and jealous and bitter is not cool.
Who cares 99.9 % of U.S Airline flight attendants are old or extremely overweight with piss poor customer service lazy don’t give a shit and suck at the job or their fucking gay you want to see good looking and great customer service look at the Asian airlines the Emirates Qutar Thai airways sexy educated speak a couple of languages these ragged looking nasty bitching ass holes over here could care less

Matthew Klint… where to even start with you dude, this has nothing to do with jealousy and everything to do with the message she sends to passengers who have seen her videos and board my plane. They now view me as someone who they can hook up with and be treated disrespectfully. No thank you. This is like 10 steps backwards for every female flight attendant just trying to do her job and not be sexually harassed. Jealous?? You are way off base. Read a book on feminism.
I hope she got her job back , she is entertaining just keep the stuff away from social media, or do it not in uniform.
