becoming a flight attendant..hmmm

So I was thinking about taking a 13week diploma program for becoming a flight attendant. I looked into it a little and everything seems very specific. You must speak 2 languages, be a minimum of 5'4", be able to reach a height of 6'6", you're height must be in proportion with your wieght, must have good health, good vision and professional grooming and posture. Do any of you fnkers know anyone that is a flight attendant or anything about it at all??
I'd like to learn more about it before i decide to sign up for it in January.:)

My step uncle flys for them.

$$ is good and you get to fly around the world for free. It's a great job if you'd like to see the world. Hours can be real shitty and you can count on being called a wench. If you're interested, go for it. It can be a hell of an experience if you make it.

Oh ya, it's your chance to join the mile high club.

flight attendants tend to be taller than average.

i flew KLM a few times, and some of the stewartesses were just a little shorter than me

I totally heard that flight attendants were easy.

That being the case I encourage you to do it.... I'll be on your very first flight.

HUZZAH!!!

I knew a couple that worked for air transat, they seemed to like it a lot.

They got a good series of days off in a row, decent flight patterns after they had been there for a while, and their pay wasn't too bad either.

They did a lot of flights to Cuba and the Dominican Republic.

it's a very erratic job in that you never really know where you'll be, but you tend to only work 10-15 days a month and the pay is decent. plus you get to fly free and usually get a certain number of family/friend passes as well. you'll start off flying the bum domestic routes, like to edmonton, but if you stick around long enough you could get some nice flights.

don't waste your money on a course!

i might look into that when i come back.

Depends on the Carrier. I have a couple Friends that are full time Flight Attendants for Pacific Coastal Airlines. They're local and the pay isn't bad either. You don't need a second language either as far as I know too. Maybe check a local Carrier like Pasco or Hawk Air and such to try and get on and see how you like it then if you do, get experience there and apply to a larger Carrier like Air Canada etc.
