When I was a teenager learning to fly I spent a fair amount of time working as a line boy at Teterboro Airport. I don’t think I ever deserved a tip, but I appreciated every time somebody thought enough of the job I did to hand me a few crisp dollar bills.
You may have wondered about tipping etiquette when you fly. Should you tip the guy who fuels your airplane? Without a doubt, the answer is yes. Tips are always welcomed by line personnel, since those few extra dollars in their pocket can make a real difference in supplementing meager hourly pay.
