Bette Nash (née Burke) (1935/1936 - May 17, 2024) was an American flight attendant who held the Guinness World Record for longest-serving and oldest flight attendant from 2022 until her death.[ 1]
Nash began her career on November 4, 1957 with Eastern Airlines .[ 1] She primarily worked a route between Washington, D.C. , New York City , and Boston . She also attended regular flight attendant training as per FAA regulations.[ 2] For her 50th anniversary as a flight attendant, US Airways honored her with a party at Reagan National Airport , including a water salute , typically only reserved for retiring captains or officers.[ 3]
She attended Sacred Heart College (now Belmont Abbey College in North Carolina) and worked as a legal secretary before becoming a stewardess.[ 4] She was also a parishioner of Sacred Heart Church in Manassas, Virginia , and lived in Arlington with her son Christian, who has Down syndrome .[ 5]
On May 17, 2024, Nash died in hospice care after a breast cancer diagnosis, although she never officially retired from American Airlines.[ 2]
