1990. Federal Express ad featuring flight attendant Treso Koken, who was hired by the Flying Tiger Line in 1959

Treso was THE most popular flight attendant in our company, with colleagues and with passengers. Born in Greece, Treso was working as a nurse at New York's Bellevue when she was hired by Tigers. The airline was operating refugee flights out of Greece and needed Greek-speaking stewardesses with some medical training. Treso was hired 'temporarily' - and stayed for 33 years.
