It has recently come to our attention that people who may be interested in becoming flight attendants are being discouraged by well-meaning friends or family members, from pursuing a flight attendant career.  If you let someone dash your hopes, you may not have the passion required for the job after all.  And usually those who want to destroy your dreams, don’t have any dreams of their own!

There are also flight attendants out there that will tell you that you don’t need a class to get you into the airlines.  Keep in mind that the competition has gotten much tougher now; a few years ago, airlines would hire about 10% of all who applied - now it is only 3 to 5%, and the failure rate in training is over 30 per cent!  If you get invited to training and don’t succeed, you are back where you started.

If you are turned down by an airline, you will need to wait 6 months to a year to re-apply with that company, so it’s important to get it right the first time - do you really want to take a chance on going to an interview without preparation?
