    Kudos to all flight attendants. I fly 25-30 times a year for the last 7 years mostly coach sometimes business and have always encountered nothing but true professionalism no matter the airline. Respect in this world is a two way street. Give and you will get. Too bad a lot of people in this day and age feel that rules do not apply to them and throw a tantrum like a 2 year old when they are called out on breaking the rules and then want a lawsuit. Society is plunging downward as a whole.

    I remember her. When my nephews were 2 & 3 and would not stop crying on the plane because "they both wanted to sit with their Mom" we tried everything to stop them from crying and apologized to the passengers on the plane immensely. She came out and played with them and gave them both "Wings" and that worked until we landed. Everyone thanked her. Those same nephews are now 25& 26, college graduates with professional careers in banking and law enforcement

    Best job ever, I've been flying for 7 months till today every time I put the uniform on, I feel like I am going for my first day of operation. And I believe I can't do anything else apart from flying 😍

    It's a lifestyle like no other. It isn't for everyone, but most people love it and adjust just fine. Good luck!

    JE ENN Aviaition is 24/7 so you will be working the busiest holidays, be up at 3 am or 10 pm, work for 14-17 hours straight, dealing with each passenger individually which is emotionally abd physically draining, dealing with rude and mad passengers who yell at you for no reason, your up on your feet all day,no real breaks for food or rest unless you get delayed at the airport, dealing with different altitudes and time zones and different environments from the outside, you get sick often because people are dirty and nasty and unclean and you have to clean the aircraft after every turn, you get paid shit money for the job you do and only get paid once you fly, you have yo deal with emergency situations (which is your main focus and job), half of the month I'm not home so you can't have pets or it's really hard to have kids/pets.
