Narrative:
Approximately 15-20 mins after takeoff, the captain contacted the purser that we had lost 50% of our hydraulics and we were losing more, to prepare the cabin for a land evacuate/evacuation. We immediately got out our manuals and prepared the cabin. We went through the entire checklist, briefed passenger at emergency exits, collected large bags, sharp objects and showed them the crash position to situation. We landed with no incident.
