My career is in the toilet and for once I want to start doing something I would really enjoy. I would like to become an international flight attendant. I have a BA, speak perfect English and Russian, decent French and can brush up my Italian.

1. Do I need any special training? Money is not a problem, I have savings.

2. How would I go about picking a perfect airline for me? I live in US, South Jersey.

Just any advice from flight attendants who know what I need to do to start the career.

Thanks a lot.

  1. no you are probably perfect age. Some one I know in my town is 24 or 25 and just became one. You do have to do training through the airline i think.


  2. Nope, just contact one of the airlines you would like to work for.

  3. no ur sorta young!  

  4. I don't think its too late at all. With those language skills and a college degee, you shouldn't have too much of a problem getting any type of job.

  5. you should go online and look at the flight attendant programs. Choose an airline that will work well with your strenghts! Good Luck!

  6. No your not to old. I've seen very old flight attendants, around their 40s.  

  7. No.I've seen flight attendants that must have been well into their late 40's.

  8. No you are not too old!!!  But the airline industry is dying!!!  They are always cutting jobs to save money.  Use you knowledge for something else until the air industry picks up again.

  9. They prefer someone in their LATE 20's early 30's to deal with all the idiots on the planes.   Good Luck........  

  10. no you  have to be 21 not 25 sorry but hope it helps


  11. yea you could do that

  12. I say youd be good for any(fill out an apllacation

  13. No, that's the perfect age, however you will need to do some training for emergency landing's and how to treat passengers in an emergency etc.

    Good luck, and pick an airline that you would trust, and that would look after you, maybe American Airlines, something like that.

  14. Definitely not too old.

    My wife is 48, and a CSA (Customer Service Agent) for an airline.  They actually invited her to become an FA a couple years ago.  She declined because she's not that crazy about the hours.

  15. Your not two old .But you have to remember when you have a child most girls give it up as it just is not possible to raise a kid at home when you are half way around the world .Your a good age.I started my training at 17 with the Airline and went online as cabin crew a day after my 18 birthday .Im in my 20s now and a lot of my friends started young as well.I just got really lucky in my interviews

  16. Of course you could easily be a fly attendant. If it's what you want to do, but yourself forwards towards it with 100% of yourself. You're definitely not to old to be a flight attendant, you're only 25.

    good luck!

  17. Send your CV to Air Russia - they'd take you like that. But you wouldn't get paid much.

    But Joking aside 25 is the perfect age to decide what you want to do and do it.

    Don't let 10 or 20 years pass and regret it.

    I'm sure they're looking for stuardesses at Virgin, British airways and pretty much any comany that flies people back and forward to Russia.

    Go for it matey - you can do it.

    All the best

    Ps go into your local airport and ask for an application - it can't hurt.

    I'm from England and my geography is awful, i wish i could help you more.

  18. No, you are not too old to be a flight attendant. Where did you get that idea cause your still pretty young. At least your not 25 years old working at a burger joint. Now thats alot more embarrasing

  19. no that is still very young and quite HOT!

  20. No, you are not too old at all.  When I was in training at AA, we had candidates as young as 20 and candidates as old as 60 (no joke).  25 is a good stable age to start the job.  The industry is struggling, but if you research the companies that you are wanting to apply to and make sure they are a good fit for you, you can be successful.  If you are looking to possibly stay close to your home after training, or one day transfer back, the one airline I would suggest for you is Continental.  One of their major hubs is Newark, and its a major international hub.  The airlines  will base you where they have a need so you aren't guaranteed your base of choice.  But don't let that sway you, you can always commute!  Good luck to you :)

  21. There's no such thing as being too old especially at 25. Employers can be sued if they tell you you can't because you're too old.

  22. No. Sounds like a perfect job for a young lady. And I'm pretty sure that they will train you once you get hired on.
