The Life Of A Flight Attendant
Flight attendants may seem like they’re living the dream; they get payed to travel, and regularly see the world thanks to their job. But while that is true, there are also quite a few downsides to working as part of a plane’s air crew.
Flight attendants are often very busy, finishing one flight only to board another, and are, in many airlines, paid only for their time in the air – which means that as long as the plane is sitting on the tarmac, they’re not being compensated. So next time you’re waiting for your delayed flight to take off, you can be sure that your aircrew is just as anxious for the plane to get off the ground as you are!
