  1. Flight Attendents do not have an easy job in an emergency, many people think their job is to serve people snacks on a plane and assist them with their luggage and that is all true but their main job is to tell you safty things you need to know about the aircraft, and to help every one out in an emergency!!!


  2. Contrary to common opinion, a flight attendant's primary duty is safety.  It starts with properly stowing carry-on bags so that in the event of an emergency, passengers can evacuate the airplane without hindrance; seat belt checks, safety demonstrations and securing the cabin for take off.  Prior to boarding passengers, the f/a's check all safety equipment.

    Once at cruise altitude, the service comes in, with mostly beverage service, and maybe snacks or meals depending on carrier and class of service.

    Granted, many nights are in hotels, but that is known before signing-up.

    I have been grounded for a year and a half with 9 years service and miss it terribly.  Hope this answers your question, email for more info.

  3. Well, there is more to it than most think.  First you show up for briefing, anywhere from 45 min to 1 hr 45 min before your flight to meet your crew, and go over the specifics of the flight.  Then you go to the plane and do your safety checks.  There are many items that need to be checked before a flight such as portable oxygen and first aid equip., door and slide pressures, fire ext., etc etc etc.  After that you board the plane.  During the flight you may serve drinks, food, snacks, help people with questions they have, make announcements, etc....however, our main priority on the plane is safety and security.  We are there to evacuate the plane, if necessary...in a safe and efficient manner.  After the flight, you say goodbye to everyone...and do it all over again..and again.
