This was pretty bad. It’s chaos at the Dulles boarding gates for the small regional jets because they use one gate to board 3-4 flights at a time. So, it’s difficult knowing where and when to go. There is little space for any size of carrry-on, so most had to gate check their bags. However, the worst of it was that our single flight attendant fell asleep before we took off and the pilot couldn’t do so until she responded to his messages. My wife had to wake her up! So we were a little late leaving. Not to be thwarted, the flight attendant fell asleep right after take off and there was no sight of her during the flight. When the aircraft touched down, a tray of unsecured canned drinks came crashing onto the aisle up front. I can only assume someone didn’t do what they were supposed to. The pilot was great, but I’m sure he must not be happy with this crew member.
