  1. ok it depends what airline u want to work for for example air france u would need to now english and french i would recommend air france cause they pay the most but it all depends on the airline u work with good luck with the job


  2. Only one--English.

  3. The official language of the airline industry is English.  All pilots and air traffic controls speak it - some better than others.  In my experience, some of the hardest controllers to understand were in SE Asia, but several of my friends have more trouble with folks in the Mid-East.  Sometimes, you hear a controller and pilot speaking in their own language, i.e. French or Vietnamese, but they&#039;re not supposed to.

  4. no, the languages you speak are fine.

    But you should probably study a little bit of spanish(just the basics like hello or do you need anything).It&#039;s always good to know spanish because english and spanish are the biggest languages that everyones speaking.


  5. its good to have a varieties of languages starting from english french chinese spanish and Portuguese are the most common maybe german and italian are useful but it don&#039;t matter you have to look at what airline you work for really e.g. virgin is spoken english and singapore is Singaporean and also what route you fly e.g. england to japan on that flight you would have Japanese tourists and you would have to speak both english and Japanese. good luck on your job and go to college and get a gcse or a diploma in languages you normally can chose 5 or 6 languages at college.  

  6. Only one really, but the more the better....especially for international routes

  7. not really it always help to speak several languages when traveling, but now day English is most spoken and understood.

  8. It depends on what airline you want to work for. Some only need their local language and mostly english as well, where others like Emirates Airlines pride themselves to the fact that Attendants can speak at least 4 or more languages. But you are way too long at 161cm, you should apply for record at Guiness Records. You cannot fit into the door in the first place
