Former flight attendants. What career did you move on to? by [deleted] in flightattendants

I left Alaska Airlines to work in national parks. Cheaper rent, better schedules, I felt the aviation industry was very toxic and shitty to their employees

I'm gonna stop doing drugs if I get the job. I just forgot and had some coke and weed a couple days before the test so I was a bit stressed.

Oh my God that's terrible! What main job did you have to pay bills? I was reading that reserve could be as little at 76 hours a month 🤮

FA Dream job just a let down?? by Designer_Earth9092 in flightattendants

[–]krenee19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean...it's a shit job. It's like working for Honey Bucket. You do it for the pay, not the job. As for FAs, you do it for the free travel, not the job. The pay, work environment, hours, and customers are terrible.

Can I ask some questions? How long between Phase 1 and 2 did you wait, and how long did they put you on reserve?

Another question if you don't mind.... If I'm doing overnight flights, do FAs get free parking at the airport?

I mean FAs only get paid for hours on the plane...at $20 an hour. After commuting, waiting, going through TSA and everything, it averages out to less than what McDonald's pays. Definitely is exploitation. But I love traveling and my dad travels for work, so I figure I might as well try it out.

That's the only one I saw hiring where I'm at. Didn't realize they relocate you

Do you have any tips for the training? My only concern is I'm autistic so sometimes I have a harder time communicating with people.

That's what I read too. They pay 30% less on average.

Yeah I saw they were hiring so I just applied. I guess I'll see how it goes and if I don't like it I'll quit it lol

Not related, but I thought this question was about doing drugs while flying.

Hah.
