What other questions do you have about being a flight attendant?! ☺️ ✈️

[donnabaardsen]

Julia, when I applied, I was immediately invited to my airline's hub, and made it all the way through to the final face-to-face. There were no video interviews. What stands out for me from that time is the desperation. We were a large group that was narrowed down over the day, to those of us making it all the way through. My biggest suggestion is to NOT be an eager beaver on a stage, constantly auditioning. Because the powers that be see it and don't like it. My thinking and behavior was, "I'm here, do you like what you see and hear? If so, great." This was my first try, top tier, major airline. Apparently, they did like what I had to offer, because interviews and activities took place over an entire day. The final face to face was around dinnertime. Be yourself at all times, but of course do so with class, and according to why you are there. Pay attention, be flexible. Great video, Julia!

I’m a 54 yr old postal worker that will never ever be a flight attendant but still taking notes !! Lol !!!! My former self would’ve loved that job also so I’m so happy I get to tag along with you !!! Thanks for the video !!!

Well said Julia. I agree being a Flight Attendant does completely depend on the airline you are with. It's not an overly difficult position but you can feel anxiety at times. Also, I would not recommend commutting because of the unknowns/stress involved. After FA graduation, move to your base, then evaluate your options (change bases or move alltogether). It's just easier all the way around especially on probation (your first 6 months as a FA). The more seniority, the better you can manage your schedule to meet your needs. Lots of FA's work for 40-50 years and hold great schedules and make excellent pay. It all comes with seniority/longevity.

I am 21 and Mexican I just finished college so I don’t know what to do now and I am thinking about becoming a flight attendant but I am so full of doubts so watching your video has been a really good help for me to decide what I’m going to do, thanks ❤

This sort of work would drain the sh*t outta me. Good on these employees for putting up with it. Thank you

✈️My interview began in a packed waiting room where American Airlines planted several employees to ‘watch’ us before going into the interview offices😊 Anyway, after gaining seniority over the years, I flew once a week (out on Friday, back on Sunday) to London which helped avoid the domestic crazy USA holiday travel! Then I switched to Honolulu layovers five times a month when jet lag got to me on European routes. Fabulous long-term career!!!

As always Julia has a good taste of what to talk about and honesty about what one is getting into if you want to get into the cabin crew life. As a warehouse worker you should be ready for realistically anything and we value air crews who take the 24/7/365 assignments seriously. I am gland that Julia actually tries to get things right and do the right job so we are all safe and on time whenever you want to go somewhere.

I was with a regional airline which was a Delta connection airline and I honestly. loved it. The destinations weren't all that glamorous. However I worked there for 8 years and had great seniority. I got the trips I want and the days off I wanted maybe 3 to 4 years in. I became a check flight attendant and I recruited with HR to recruit and hire other flight attendants. After 8 years I needed to start my career in corporate working in HR since that was my true passion. Quitting the flight attendant job was the best decision because I went straight to corporate and 3 years later am now making 5 times more and have 5 weeks of vacation where I can pay for confirmed seats and now am a Delta Gold Medallion Elite flyer. I think if you really don't care about money you can be a flight attendant. If you don't care much about lifestyle then you can easily adjust and be one but since I started when I was 25 I needed to start my career and not be flying my whole life. I fly on so many trips now that I think I fly more leisurely then I did when I was a flight attendant because I was trying to make the money to pay bills. I'm actually comfortable and happy with my funds and I'm typing from my vacation in Japan right now. All of the major airlines may be better with pay but may take some time to get the type of trips and days off you want depending on your base. I would encourage everyone to work for a major and request the junior base if you plan to make this a long term gig.

Hey Julia! My wife has been a fa for almost 25 years (she still loves it). We have a college freshman and a 13 year old. It wasn’t always easy trying to get around her schedule and mine, but family really helped. Keep up the good work. We love your channel.

Growing up near Cleveland OH, a good neighbor and friend of the family was a FA for Northwest Airlines (and later Delta). Despite living near Cleveland, she was based out of DTW and typically worked international routes like Amsterdam & Tokyo. When my 6'4" tall father flew with NWA, she was able to get my father upgraded to premium cabin and during my 1999 trip to Europe with NWA & KLM, my younger sister & I flew as unaccompanied minors and she told the respective FAs to treat us well!
