The life of a flight attendant
I will present to you a list of the greatest aspects of being a flight attendant, as well as the less glamorous parts of the job. You must make an informed decision when choosing this career.
Pros
Being a flight attendant has enormous benefits, especially when you are young and adventurous.
See the world at no cost to you
The airlines have impressive route maps. Whatever destination farther than 4 hours flight away implies that the crew will have a layover in that city. Depending on the flight frequency, your length of stay could be anything from 24 hours to 100 hours. All expenses paid and you can browse the city, do some sightseeing, see concerts, explore restaurants, and whatever else you can think of.
Meet awesome people
Many expat airlines pride themselves with the number of nationalities they employ. My airline had more than 120 nationalities. You will meet people from countries you never knew existed (Faroe Islands anyone? ) to countries that seem so far and exotic, such as Japan, Nicaragua, Luxembourg, Paraguay, Azerbaijan or Eritrea.
Not only your colleagues, but also your passengers are from all over the world, and everybody has a unique story to tell. All you have to do is listen and wow your heart!
Broaden your mind and experiences
One of my colleagues had a small book in which she was writing the same 5 phrases in all the languages that people she met were speaking. She was building quite a collection!
©Copyright Kara Grand - How to Become a Flight Attendant I met a girl from Finland who started studying Arabic and in 1 year she was able to have conversations with native speakers. Another amazing woman was going to Nepal every time she had some days off. She was collecting and bringing supplies to local schools and spending some time with children who are so poor they have never even seen a TV.
My friend Nadine went to Traditional Massage School in Thailand and got herself a diploma on how to be a real Thai massage therapist.
You go, you see, your mind and heart grow. This job gives you continuous opportunities to find passions and hobbies that you will never be able to pursue at home with a 9-5 job and 2 weeks of vacation per year.
Loads of free time
Every month you will get 8 to 12 days off. Having all that time and all the possibility and quietness, I managed to finish my university studies while I was flying. You will finally find the time to pursue other dreams, education or passions.
