BS flag thrown. Nobody gives pas at 0300 unless all hell is about to break loose and they feel compelled to for safety. I don't believe for a second that any CAs or FOs are pointing out anything in the middle of the night. Nobody is that big a tool.

AND- at the same outfit the FA’s would leave the cabin lights on full bright the whole red-eye because “it’s too dark and we can’t see the passengers when we are doing service.”
And that airline is wondering why they aren’t making money.
100% dead serious.

In a previous life I flew with a guy that did exactly this. Grand Canyon, LAS Vegas, continental divide, northern lights, you name it.

"We just reached FL330. I'm going to turn off the seat belt sign so you're free to move about the cabin. However while you're in your seats keep your seat belt fastened...yada yada yada."
Zip it. Everybody's asleep and no one cares.

Just for clarification, I never said to do this at night. It would irritate everybody to no end when the redeye got to cruising altitude and some tool would say:
"We just reached FL330. I'm going to turn off the seat belt sign so you're free to move about the cabin. However while you're in your seats keep your seat belt fastened...yada yada yada."

When investigated, there were three sets of tire tracks. Forward, back up, and forward again, just to make certain.

Once the first run over is complete, the average FA crew in a van has already moved on to a 20 minute discussion on what their cat's are doing 3 time zones away along with analyzing the latest episode of the Kardashians.
