Hi everyone! 👋


I’m interested in pursuing a career as a flight attendant and wanted to get some insights from people already in the field. From what I’ve read, becoming cabin crew requires a mix of technical knowledge, soft skills, and practical training. Some institutes, like Frankfinn, offer structured programs in areas such as communication, grooming, customer service, and airline operations.

I’m curious to hear about real experiences from this community:
  • What skills do you think are the most essential for flight attendants?
  • How helpful was formal training or coaching in preparing for interviews and job responsibilities?
  • For those who’ve joined airlines recently, what were the biggest challenges in the first few months?
 
Welcome to JC. We haven’t had an aspiring flight attendant here for a while so welcome. I’m a pilot but am always curious what backgrounds my coworkers are from.

It seems like a lot of our FAs (regional airline) come from jobs that require lots of customer facing time. Starbucks, Target, teachers, restaurants, retail, etc.

Do you speak another language?
