Life as a flight attendant.

First of all....I wouldn't become cabin crew just because of your love for aviation. There are better jobs more suited to your interests...a flight dispatcher for example.

Without meaning to offend anyone, I think being cabin crew is more suited to people who like waitrassing 🙄

I found some info on cabin crew.... ➡

But also have a look at this for other jobs in the aviation field... ➡

Hope this is of some help 😉

I wouldn't advise easyJet. Go for something else. There are many higher paying airlines. If you wanted to become a pilot look for an opening where the airline trains you.

PILOT!!! Althou im not a pilot at all

Do not give up your dream as a pilot, you'll live to regret it.

Do whatever you can in your position to get in there, and get the airline to train you. 🙂

I really appreciate all your answers guys.
You might be right as well that there are some better jobs that could lead you to pilot position. I still thinks it is worth of the struggle. I really don't want to do job that I don't like. I have already over 2 years face to face customer experience so it shouldn't be a problem I think.

cheechm-don't you know any airliner that take unexperienced people for flight attendant position and pay more money? I don't know any. Because all of the low cost airlines I know, are really bad in treating employees as normal people. 12-14h shifts, no overtime bonuses, bad trainig etc.

pilotwannabe- thanks, very nice links.

PS-Jamie4590. We understand eachother very good!

Don't you have to be as gay as a daffodil to be a male trolley dolley?

🙂

This is my main concern.. am fully hetero.. time to change orientation??? Oh well.. everything for sacrifice. 😂

so the females are normally hetero right?

I think it should be law where all flight attendants are female, under 30, ex models and speak broken english.

hinch-hmm. I think they are...

cheechm-Wouldn't you recommend to start this position from flight attendant rather than from total newbie? Despite the fact that you need gallons of money to start licensing yourself, isn't it? And you can always take a peak into the cockpit, bring the meal, chat after landing how to start, where. You never get so valuable information than from pilots already flying the same pleane you are in.

You know, I reckon the passenger luggage weight restrictions could be raised if the trolley dolleys didn't use a mortar board and trowel to apply their make up

hideous it is

"Hello Sir, Welcome to Tango Doll Airlines, please take a seat and a perma-tan bint will be along to flake make up on you shortly"

Long ago, it wasn't a law but company regulations restricted Flight Attendants to being female, unmarried and young(can't quote an age). There was also a weight restriction. Average employment time was about 2 years. It was seen a a job that young women could meet eligible businessmen and then get married.

Christ, that must have been a long time ago

aren't there still weight restrictions? as in a larger attendant wouldn't be able to lean over and pour coffee without the first person in a row being mushed. also the width of aisle, fuel cost...etc.

I am 177cm, 61kg unmarried and very handsome! 😎 They'll want me!

Dear All

If your looking into a Career with easyjet i highly recomend it, i'm currently a first officer of Boeing 737-700 Aircraft based at Liverpool John Lennon Airport EGGP for Easyjet. The salary is great and the cabin crew positions are very good. Take a look on easyjets website www.easyjet.com for more information. 😉

I must say you're displaying very loyal work ethics. From what I hear most of your colleagues and cabin crews sip Sangria at sun-drenched beaches along the Mediterranean, yet you yourself find time for flightsimming and recruiting staff at FS forums...

My hat off to you Sir

Ben Udo,

You made my day! 😂

I am about to finish my application form.

Club Tropicana here you come! 😉 👍

Thanks for sharing this! All the best!
