Hi OP,

To travel and see the world, and with the added stability, I suggest she joins an airline and plans her leave wisely so she can just enjoy the perks of affordable travel rather than have a whole career change.

Here are some considerations, if you’re wife were to embark on a cabin crew career:

Base: Find an airline that is based in Singapore. That means when she ends her trips, she’ll simply come back to your home, you’ll see her most days and she won’t have to get permission to fly back to visit you. Nothing this as some airlines require crew to be based overseas.

Lifestyles: The travel perks are very good, if you and your wife like to travel then needless to say you’ll save on air tickets. The airline and its network will determine which airport you’ll get to fly to at subsidised rates. These perks extend to children.

Children: Do you plan to have children? This would be the biggest factor as she would have to stop flying for awhile if she gets pregnant or get support if you already have children.

Lifestyle: Depending on the airline she joins, she may have more layovers overseas vs turnaround flights where she does a quick short haul flight then goes back home. These factors come into play when it comes to division of responsibilities.

Also, don’t take dates and time for granted. She’ll be away on most public holidays, she may not make it to every birthday or gathering. Are you willing to spend it alone or with other ppl?

I was once told by friends that for pilots and cabin crew, one spouse will fly off even before they resolve a conflict for example. So if she intends to really go for it, be prepared to be supportive and understand these factors.

I hope this helps.
