Applying to be a flight attendant is a long process but the job is worth it. Make sure you have all the information you need before diving in. This video will give you very simple, but important tips on what to do and what not to do when applying to be a flight attendant.
* Note: this is generic advice because every airline application process, interview rubrics, and training regimens vary in some degree. But the advice in this video is great advice to aid with most airline job searches.
Most airlines hire within “Hiring Windows”. This means that not every airline hires at the same time, nor do they hire all year round. While all of the links below will get you to the “Jobs” page of each airline, make sure and check to see if the hiring window is active. You can also typically add your email and get an alert for when the window opens.

Delta - news.delta.com/join-our-team-...
Southwest - careers.southwestair.com/flig...
American - jobs.aa.com/go/Flight-Attenda...
* One last bit to consider:
Most airlines do not allow visible tattoos. As of the writing of this description, United is the only airline I know of that has signaled they will allow certain visible piercings and tattoos. (Source: www.forbes.com/sites/dawnstac...)

The only work experiences I had before wanting to apply as a Flight Attendant was some community service at my local church and planting trees around the neighborhood. So being an flight attendant would be my first genuine job. Im wondering if you know any cases of people in my same predicament that still became an FA without any previous job experiences. Video is very informative, u got a new sub 👍🏽

@EastonExplores Год назад

Thanks for the sub! And YES! Just don’t say that during the interview. If they ask for past work experience and examples of issues that you helped resolve in past work experiences, frame every answer like it was a genuine job. During my interview, I used many examples of working at Church! I just made sure to talk about it the same way as talking about the everyday job. I didn’t belittle the experience and the interviewer followed suit. They’re really not looking at the specific job you did. They’re looking at how you handled whatever work you completed. Because at the end of the day, a Flight Attendant it doesn’t have a manager to run to 45,000 feet in the air. In the moment they have themselves and the crew. That’s it. Best of luck and keep me posted!

Hello! Great video :) I just applied for a position at delta, I have a lot of tattoos and it seems like that is a big no no. Just wondering if you know if that has changed

@EastonExplores 2 года назад

Hey! Thank you and congrats! :D Tattoos are acceptable if they are not seen. No bandaids can cover them but make-up can. This includes while flying, tattoos can never be visible.

@fcdavidg4751 Год назад

Do you need to take anything for the career fair (I am being requested to attend this too see if I’ll get that actual interview). I don’t have a portfolio or anything so wondering if I need to take one

@EastonExplores Год назад

Nothing I know of. Full transparency, when I interviewed I brought my high school transcript and was currently in college. I never took anything specifically (within your question) for the job.

Does it matter if you don’t use the referral link? Bc my mom is a flight attendant for AA, & I didn’t know anything about a referral link when I applied, however I did put her information where it asks if I have an family member that is an active employee.

@EastonExplores 2 года назад

So, I know that for Delta it does matter. Unless you use the link to apply, there is no applying the link/referral retroactively. I’m not 100% about AA but if you’re mom is a flight attendant and you drop her name, I’m sure they take into account family. You’re probably good! However, I’d check to see if she has a referral link and if it’ll allow you to reapply through that. Might as well cover all bases 👏

Hey dude, I’m a 30yo guy who works in a high level of construction. However I have been thinking about possible career changes. What I do now is all about safety and service. I was wondering if you’ve ever heard of someone like me becoming an FA. Thanks.

@EastonExplores 7 месяцев назад

Hey! Let me tell you that I've seen prior cops, nurses, actors, retirees, and even those who have never had a job become flight attendants with major airlines their first try. If you're considering it, the most you need is a high school degree and an honest desire for customer service and safety. I say apply and get your foot in the door!

@gordonslomba2532 Год назад

@manicsandwich5714 Год назад

Do you have to be 21 at most places? I’m 19 and really wanna look into this but I’m not sure if I even can

@EastonExplores Год назад

If I’m not mistaken, the major US airlines require a minimum age of 21. And I believe they allow you to apply at 20, as long as by the end of training you turn 21! Regionals MAY allow a younger age, but I’ve only ever heard that second hand. Never met a 19 year old flight attendant

@josephconnolly5273 Год назад

I wasn't selected past the assessment for Delta. I'm not sure what I answered wrong and even had a reference when applying. What are some ideas that you have so I can re-apply in 3 months.

@EastonExplores Год назад

Hey! The assessment is well calculated. A flight attendant should put safety above customer service (above ALL) and THEN customer service should be the focus. Answer with those 2 top priorities in mind next time (if you didn’t already.) even if my answer displaced someone’s comfort, safety is number 1 no matter what.

@EastonExplores Год назад

Also, apply as soon as your window opens. Delta (specifically) is hiring 4K-6k this year. The most ever in one year.

Is it possible to become a flight attendant with a felony? Even if it's a first offense?

@EastonExplores 12 дней назад

@@austinlohmann4008 it really depends on the offense. But generically, it’ll be very difficult due to the very thorough background check.
