This was awesome. Your parents are great and your mum is still beautiful. What a fab family.
Thank you Adriana :)
Pan Am, you can't beat the Experience! Thanks, Vagabrothers, for a nostalgic trip back in time with your mom. You know I met Jill on the first day of our Pan Am flight attendant training in 1977 and my future wife, Brenda, was in our class. As members of The Fulham Five, the three of us had an absolute blast in London, Europe, etc. and remain close friends to this day. Just like you and Alex, my sons grew up exposed to world travels and a love of different cultures/people. Your passion for travel and for sharing it is a genuine way to promote global peace and understanding....THANK YOU and more power to you both!
I remember when I was 8yrs old we were flying on a Pan Am Boeing 707 back in 1972 leaving from Clark AFB to Hawaii,my mother dressed me and my 2 brothers in a suit and my father was in his AF uniform,my mother was dressed real nice too,every Pan Am passengers were dressed well that was class back then from when I remembered,we were in economy class but we still got good service with real dish wear like silver wear,the stewardess were dressed in blue with white blouse underneath and in 1980 I flew on Pan. Am again only it was a Boeing 747 Clipper class flying from San Francisco to Hawaii round trip,I enjoyed every moment flying with Pan Am and I even still have the Pan Am bag,thanks Pan Am for all the great service it was worth it.
I really enjoyed the show. I joined Pan Am in 1963, employed for 28 years, it was a wonderful time in life. Thanks for the memories. I worked in New York, JFK and the PAB,. My name, Bill Wright.
This is probably my favorite episode this year!! Your parent's story is so beautiful!
Awww thank you so much Tiese. Makes us feel so good to read nice comments like this :)
Your parents have an amazing story on how they met. It's cool to see her so happy remembering those days at Pan Am. :D Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you for watching and leaving this nice comment Sylliana :)
As a kiwi it's really nice to hear your dad hasn't lost our beautiful accent ;)
He couldn't erase it if he wanted too! Kia Ora Vanessa!
I was a Pan Am Stewardess way back around 1997 , stationed in New York after being
hired in Oslo Norway.
It was a dream job back then, people would dress up for the trip. and everything was
elegant. The service and meals were so much more special , it was always a feeling of comfort and elegance on board a Pan Am Flight.
I was so lucky to have had flights to Asia. Africa, India and a lot of Europe and the
Caribbean during my time with Pan Am.
And I was also so lucky to meet a pilot on one
of my first flight, we married and he kept flying for more than 30 years while I was home taking care of our 3 daughters after that!
We all thought that an Am would be there forever, I still wish that could have been possible!
Such happy memories!

What a great story about how your parents met and have a two wonderful sons I recently retired in 2019 with 31 years with American Airlines
Wow. You're mum is a stunner.
When I was 4 my mother and I dropped my dad off at the airport. I ran away to find him and when the airport authorities found me my mother asked "where were you going?!" I said "Pan Am sign...dad!" And that's my first adventure of the travel bug. Thanks Pan Am....missing those wing pins. 💜✈️
Oh how I miss those days. Brings back so many memories.
Really enjoyed this video because my Dad worked for Pan Am for over forty years. Watching this video brought back many memories of a great airline.
Awesome to relive PanAm's glory days along with your mum.
Your parents are amazing, so cute together and what an incredible story of how they met. You can easily tell that they are still so much in love!!! Very beautiful family!
Yeah, my aunt was a flight attendant for Pan Am... then lost her life on Pan Am 103. Totally sucks. I still miss her.
+amberviolina 😔 so sorry to hear that Amber. 🙏🏼😥
Im so sorry to hear that. 😢
So sorry about your aunt.
I BID for the HONOLULU/ PAGOPAGO/AUCKLAND/PAGOPAGO, 707 A/C FLIGHT BUT I WAS JUNIOR SO I CAN SAY I NARROWLY MISSED DEATH. A/C FLIGHT landed on the trees, short of the runway......
Wonderful. You make your mom and dad proud. What a great video and love letter to your folks. I miss those Pan Am days......
Uncle John!!! Gotta love those buddy passes :)
This brings back a lot of memories of flying on Pan Am in the '60s and '70s.
Mom is still beautiful. What a love story!
Pan Am stewardesses are glamorous forever! I hope Mom is a member of Los Angeles Chapter of World Wings!!!
I like the different generations getting together
Steven Cassidy I
Jesus, That's why you two are so adorable!
Your parents literally found love in each other and passed it to you boys!
Very nice to meet them, specially getting to know how they met in a series of travels....
I was a Pan Am flight attendant in London in the 70s....wonderful that this was done. Thank you!!!
Absolutely the cutest parents...lucky you guys!
Your mom is funky. Wow great you guys have a real historian there, an ex-flight attendant of Pan Am, to re-tell the stories. I hope she is enjoying all memorabilia moment with Pan Am experience.
I just watched the Pan Am drama, was finding some videos about real Pan Am story. And found this! Your parents lovestory is so romantic. I'm moved! 😍
Great video! Brought back many fond memories for me. I was a pilot for Pan Am flying the Boeing 747. I met both Jill and Roberto in Berlin last May at the PAA reunion. I was lucky like you dad I married a Stewardess from Pan Am they make incredible wives. Thanks for the memories Captain Tommy Carroll PAA
Why RUclips does not have a "love" button??? To see a loving couple like your parents is great
I adore this video so much! I am a pilot daughter with my parents meeting in San Diego, California. Mum from Australia. Dad from Alabama. I grew up on staff travel flights. I am so glad your dad kept his accent. I do wish the glory days still existed. It looks like New Zealand and Qantas airlines are trying to go back to it with lounges in each cabin. They have also employed world renounced Chef's to come up with the menu. Just wish it was cooked on the plane.
Your parents are the GOALS! 🙌 Loved this.
Thank you soooo much Claire! Really glad you enjoyed it :)
While I love all of your travelogs, seeing this one was the best! And even more amazing, I am in that photo with your Mom sitting at the table in the upper deck of the 747! You brought back wonderful memories of those Pan Am days. The only job I can think of that equals our fabulous Pan Am life, is yours! Keep up the good work! Nance Abadilla- Pan Am 1968
Went on the Pan Am Experience back in 2015, wow time flies. It was great and good to see the Clipper Class being used now. When we went it was open, but no one was seated there. Great experience and worth the price. Fun to dress in 1970's leisure suit to!
My friends, who love to travel, sent me this.. Wonderful story about your parents & how they met... Happy travels!!
Great video. Just as I remember flying with Pan Am. I will never forget the beef, could not believe how good it was. Always remember being asked if I wanted a second helping. And those whiskey sours before takeoff, how many did I have whilst taxiing out at LHR bound for LAX. What A great airline! Thanks for bringing back all these memories.
Your parents are awesome! I can see where you two obviously got your curiosity for the world from.
WOW, this is the best RUclips video that I have ever seen. I enjoyed the trip down memory lane with your parents, your mom is super cool. At one point in the video, I had a huge grin sharing your parents love connection in the Swiss Alps. Just a super video for the air travel enthusiasts. My mother stew'd for TWA back in the day (60's) so I could sort of relate. Thanks guys!
Glad you enjoyed the trip down memory lane Anthony!
Thank you for doing this video! I am going to purchase the experience for my boyfriend’s birthday. He has worked in aerospace for over 20 years. I think he’s going to love it! I can’t wait to surprise him!!
I lived Pan Am growing up. My dad was a Passenger Service Supervisor for Pan Am in Seattle. We used to fly free all over the world on Pan Am. If there were empty seats available in first class, we got to fly first class. Talk about "can't beat the experience", nothing beat flying first class to Europe on a Pan Am 747. It was just like in the video, only better. They would roll up a cart with prime rib on it, carve off a big chunk and put it on an actual ceramic plate and you had real silverware and glasses to drink out of. I traveled all over the world on Pan Am. I saved a whole bunch of Pan Am memorabilia and have collected Pan Am stuff for years. I am retired now, but I run a small collectibles store in Brinnon, Washington during the summer months. I have on display in my store, what I claim is the world's largest Pan Am bag collection with over 50 bags on display. I had specially made Pan Am logo panels made and I also have a 1960's era Pan Am world route map on display that measures 6 feet by 10 feet. Check out my Pan Am bag collection on my website at: HIXSONVILLE.COM.
That was so cool! In one picture of your mom, she looked like Anne Margaret. I believe it was the one with her head down facing your Dad. You can tell how much your parents are still in love💗
Thanks for this guys. My mother flew for TWA for 30 years from the early 60s and I grew up in the 70s and 80s on the plane. Really brought back a lot of memories! Back then Pan Am and TWA were really of the only US international airlines and were in a class by themselves! Thanks again!
Very sublime and beautiful gesture for your parents!
I wish we could still fly like this... this was wonderful...
Your parents story is so much like a Bollywood movie and their story is so cute. It's clear that they had such an impact on your love for travel and it's really nice to see it on video.
Beautiful video and story. It got us at office talking (arguing!) about fate, destiny, pure luck ... what IFs ... your Mom hadn't been hired ... if weather had delayed you Dad from catching that train in Switzerland ... ahhh One Moment in Time!
+G's Office those what ifs are scary AF! Hahah we like being here :)
What a neat experience and video, thanks. It brought back many fond memories of my flying Pan Am and flying throughout the world.
What a wonderful experience to share with your parents!
Thank you so much! I flew for Pan Am from 1970-71 out of JFK
My friend showed me this: she was a Pan Am Stewardess and met her husband, a Pan Am Steward(?) while working on flights, also bilingual Italian. Like your parents, they are great people who still look fantastic -- maybe there is something magic about Pan Am?
Adorable parents. Thanks for taking me along. Made me hungry. Peace!
This has got to be one of my favorite videos! I love seeing adults conveying with their parents. I was smiling the whole video. Great job guys!!
+Linda Gonzalez awww thank you Linda!
This is so cool! I'm a huge fan of the 60s-70s. I think it was the best time for design. I would have loved to experience this!! I've used panam as an inspiration for my own work and what I do. So thank you for sharing this with us! How cool!
+Romina awesome!!! Thanks for watching and sharing your comment Romina 🙌🏼
This was fantastic seeing the realistic past and how luxurious flying was. I knew a woman who started with Pan Am in the 60's and she loved her life. Your parents are so attractive!
Your parents are a beautiful example that love knows no borders! Great story! And that HAD to be the COOLEST experience ever!
I thought I recognized that lovely woman. As a LHR based, she undoubtedly flew with me on some of the gage change flights east out of LHR. I was Berlin based from March 1971 until the base closed after the wall came down - with a couple of short interruptions due seniority, or lack of same.
You guys did a wonderful job. Literally brought tears to my eyes. And what a great tribute, both to your parents, and to Pan Am. It was very classy the way you included Delta and the buddy passes, not many would have said what you did without some resentment. I did work for Delta here in Vancouver, and during the time Delta took over some of the Pan Am routes. Some of my colleagues from here in Vancouver were temporarily assigned to JFK for the transition. Even though I was with Delta, I felt that it was a very sad time. And I still feel sad when I see all the videos of Pan Am.
Nevertheless, we do have to move on. And you guys get it! You have brought back the golden age of flight in your video. There was nothing to compare to air travel back in those days.
Cheers,
Carl
Thanks Carl,
We have lots of love for Pan Am and Delta and it was a cool family flashback to do this and even cooler that you found it meaningful as well.
Thanks again 🤙🏽
I don't know why I got teary eyes hearing the love story of your parents.
I flew PAN AM in 1974
LAX TO SYD
Gone but not forgotten
I missed you guys , as always great video . It was nice to meet your parents , I loved your mom,she is beautiful.

GOD BLESS who recreated the PAN AM .......
Wow, what a lovely story of how your parents met, this is heartwarming.
Ah!!! My heart😭 What an awesome family experience ❤️ I wouldn't mind falling for a random Kiwi while traveling Europe 😅 loved this video guys! Made being painfully awake at 4:30am less painful!😂😩❤️
Awww what a nice story with your parents!
My father worked for Pan American from the 60's-mid 70's. He worked out of New York, Stuttgart, Ankara (where he met and married my mother), Saigon and Kabul to name a few. He always looked back on his days with Pan Am as the best years of his life. He would have enjoyed watching this.
What fun to have lived in that time and had those adventures 😊
They say you cannot physically travel in time because you would have to travel faster than the speed of light, because your body would disintegrate, 186,000 thousand miles per hour, but your video made it possible, pictures make it possible. This is beautiful and your parents story is so beautiful as well. Thank you for such a great video. My parents loved Pan Am too.
Great video! Your parents are just an amazing couple!
Aww thank you Nury!
So many beautiful people and beautiful couple.
My parents met through the airline industry as well. My dad was a crew scheduler and my mom was a stewardess for Pacific Southwest Airlines (PSA) based in San Diego.
Beautiful love story!!!!
I like a lot your parent's story! Congratulations!
mesmerizing Video. Really great. Very authentic.
All in all WUNDERBAR Thanks
This was so cool to see. I would never have known this existed. And it was nice to see your mom fill in the story. Tfs with us.
I would love to get that experience again with Pan Am
I thank God every day for my job because it’s allowed me to nonrev to places people wish and dream of to visit.
Super cool, nice to meet your parents. I also met a woman switching trains in Switzerland, when I was 18. Really. Sadly it didn't last though.
Wow! What a great romantic story your parents have.
Your parents are so adorable! Loved this video.
Perfect love story! it can be a movie. Nice to know your parent :)
Gracias Nerea!!!
Love the story about your parents and the idea of the video!! You guys are awesome, hope one day I could visit many countries around the word!!
My dream is meeting someone the way your parents met! 😍 It's like a fairy tale
Great work! Love the nostalgia, but also the ongoing living effects in the current generation
What an amazing love story. It's awesome to see up close where you two developed your love for travel. Thanks for sharing!
Y'alls parents are SOOO cute!! Your mom was (well, she still is) GORGEOUS!! This ep is probably one of my favorite videos y'all have made so far. Love stories like that are the best.
So cute with your parents! 😊😊😊
I love it!!! Thank you for sharing.
Great job recreating Pan A'm World the way it used to be. I miss it.
Joined Pan Am in 1964. My son Taylor fell asleep in the pillow compartment in the upper deck lounge on our way to Germany.
Thank you.
Your parents love warms my heart!! Thank you for this video
This is so awesome. Well done, Gents! Definitely sharing with my GF who is a flight attendant for WestJet here in Canada.
Awesome! A trip back in time for me. I remember 1973 well. I love a good "Love Story" and I know your parents are proud of you two.
This looks like an amazing experience. I flew on Pan Am back in the seventies, but in the cheap seats in the back. What a story about your mom's career and how she met your dad, a real-life love-at-first-sight story. Thumbs way up for this video.
This is so fun! And your mom is gorgeous!!!
Oh my gosh the story about how your parents met is so beautiful!!!
what an awesome story and experience.
The story of your parents meeting and falling in love is like something out of a storybook. I only hope my love story can be as sweet and simple as that. Loved getting taken back to the 70s. I agree, air travel needs to go back to the way it was!
How I miss Pan Am...so sad...
Wow, a trip down memory lane. I worked for Pan Am in London for 14 years (7 years from 1968 in the Reservations department, followed by another 7 years in sales). Left Pan Am in London and moved to the USA.
This video is my fave so far! Firstly, I looooove the 60s and 70s so I would have loved to have been there - the planes looked so cool, and I love the clothes! Also, your family are so lovely. Your parents story is #goals!
Love your videos guys, keep up the good work! :)
And gotta love your dads kiwi accent!
From,
A fellow kiwi
Kia Ora Jamie! Thank you for your nice comment, we know our parents will really appreciate it :)
Loved it! Really took me back. Thanks, Jill and family. Jeanne Davis - Pan Am 1973
That was incredible. Your parents are incredible! That was so much fun. (your mom was and still is quite beautiful)
I remember the days of smoking on planes (not me, I was a wee kid, early 80s).
No wonder your parents produced two beautiful, smart, cultured, cool sons. An apple doesn't fall far from its tree 😳 and they're still madly in love! 😆
