Experience advisor and Founder
Dawn Astorga
Dawn Celeste Astorga, an international flight attendant with over 40 years of experience, commuting from my home in Guanajuato, Mexico to New York. Originally from California, I moved to Mexico three years ago and have embraced the vibrant culture and pace of life here. My career has given me a deep understanding of the demands and challenges that flight attendants face — which inspired me to create Turn Around Lounge. After navigating a range of experiences with medical tourism — some excellent, some disappointing — I realized the importance of finding a doctor I could truly trust — someone I could confidently put my life in their hands. That’s when I discovered Dr. Abraham Montes de Oca and his expert team at Faces León. Their professionalism, expertise, and compassionate care gave me the confidence I had been searching for. The experience inspired me to build Turn Around Lounge — a dedicated recovery space where flight attendants could experience the same level of expert care and comfort I had finally found. I wanted to create a place where flight attendants could transition seamlessly from surgery or other aesthetic procedures to a luxurious and stress-free recovery — knowing they are fully supported every step of the way. Turn Around Lounge is designed to give flight attendants a seamless, first-class experience. We’ve created a private, supportive environment where you can heal comfortably, with personalized care that anticipates your every need. From expert post-operative care to gourmet meals and attentive service, we ensure that every detail is handled so you can focus entirely on your recovery. Beyond aviation, I’ve explored my passion for the arts as a multi-media artisan, specializing in felting, textiles, and glass bead and button making. I once owned a pastry shop and have always had a creative spirit. I’ve shared my life with my partner of 40 years, whose unwavering support has been a constant source of strength. I also share my home with a 5-pound Chihuahua who runs the house. My love for animals extends to a desire to rescue them all if I could. At Turn Around Lounge, my goal is to provide flight attendants with a seamless, luxurious recovery experience — a place where they feel supported, secure, and completely taken care of.
