Garret Clanton, a TikTok user known for sharing travel and lifestyle content, recently shed light on an intriguing aspect of airline culture. In one of his videos, he posed the question, “Did you know that a lot of flight attendants play a game called, ‘see you later?’”

Clanton explained that this game is a subtle way for flight attendants to express interest in passengers they find attractive. The game typically takes place during the deplaning process. If a flight attendant says, “See you later,” to a passenger, it might have a hidden meaning, suggesting the flight attendant is interested in a romantic or intimate encounter with them.

Garret ended his revelation with a word of caution for travelers, saying, “So, next time you’re getting off the plane and if that flight attendant says, ‘see you later,’ think twice on what that really means.”

The revelation sparked a mix of amusement and surprise among viewers, including both passengers and flight attendants.

One viewer, taken aback by the information, commented, “I said, ‘see you later too,’ so many times lol I didn’t know.”

Even some flight attendants were unaware of this alleged game. One of them remarked, “Me, a flight attendant, having no idea this was a thing. Imma just keep saying HAGD & looking for a break in deplaning so I can get my bags down.”

The video also prompted passengers to share their personal experiences with flight attendants who seemed to be flirting with them. One user recounted, “Wait is this true? Bc a flight attendant said this to me and also told me how beautiful I am TWICE during the flight lol he was pretty cute too!!”

Another user shared a sweet gesture they received, saying, “I’ve had a FA secretly leave a cookie on my tray table right before landing. She did a super fast assassins style drive by at my seat.”

The video clearly resonated with many, leading to a flurry of comments and shared experiences.

Flight attendants seem to have their own set of playful games to make their long hours in the air more entertaining. Apart from the “see you later” game, other in-flight games have come to light.

An anonymous flight attendant revealed to the Sun about another game called “find the Bob.” They explained, “We have a little game called ‘find the Bob’ and basically Bob stands for best on board. So, you just find the best-looking person on the plane and call them Bob all day.”

Additionally, there’s the “cheerio game” that flight attendants play during the deplaning process. The attendant shared, “There’s the cheerio game you can play when passengers disembark. When you’re standing there going ‘buh-bye, thank you, take care’ etc when you see someone you fancy, you say ‘cheerio.’”
