Narrative:

During the meal service, the captain called me on the interphone. He said there was a minor problem and asked me to come to the cockpit. In the cockpit, he said there were indications of a slow hydraulic leak. We were in contact with dallas and there were plans to divert and he would give me more information. I called the flight attendants in main cabin (they had finished the meal service) and told them of the situation. The captain informed me we would land in 25-30 mins. I informed the flight attendants. He made announcement for the passenger. I repeated what he said in spanish. We prepared for landing and landed without any complications.
