    Have you been watching the news or reading it? This is NOT the time to start a career as a flight attendant.

    hi, being a flight attendant is not easy but it’s not hard neither. It is not a job – it’s a career – that not suitable for any one. It a life style change completely. The flight attendant program is usually 4 weeks training – and then you will have 6 months probation to be official hired.

    Do not pay for a flight attendant training program – they are a waste of money and time. If you get hired by an airline, they provide their own training.
    Most of the airline training programs are 5 – 7 weeks.
    Go directly to the airline and apply online. If you register and have your resume and profile on the site, you can ask to be alerted when there are openings and apply at that time.
    You will have to be on site at the training base for the entire time and will probably will have to relocate to whichever base you are assigned to.
    Apply at every airline you can and one will be hiring at some point.
    As for requirements: should be at least 18 or 21 years old (no maximum age) with at least 2 years of customer service experience. A college degree or at least some college is a plus. You should present a poised, outgoing customer focused personality. Airlines look for a well groomed professional appearance and proportionate height and weight.
    Good luck – it is a fun job with lots of benefits.
    I beg to differ about risking your life – you are more at risk commuting to work on the freeway.
