Ways to prepare in order to become a flight attendant
- Learn to have a genuine concern for others. It’s not about what you get in return, but its all about giving regardless of how big or small. Something ordinary that you do may be extraordinary for someone.
- Make improvements on your physique. Exercise. Lose weight. Remove all blemishes. Learn how to fix yourself and look presentable. Invest on clothes. Go to the dentist if your teeth are crooked. Don’t worry about skin-tone color as airlines do not care whether you are fair-skinned or morena. Just make sure you have clear skin. Learn to be conscious on how you look.
- Build your confidence level everyday. Learn to project it also when you sit, stand, walk, and talk to people. Love yourself most of all.
- Learn to pray everyday. Prayers are very powerful and it has been every flight attendant’s best “weapon of choice”. Of course, this has to be accompanied with faith.
- Develop your emotional quotient. To be a cabin crew, you need to have high EQ and here’s why.
- Learn to read. This is now a problem of many millennials and today’s generation of people. They do not know how to read. In fact, if you’ve reached this point, congratulations! Do not just read the title, it does not tell you the whole story. Read and understand articles. In training, your will be reading and memorizing a lot, with exams everyday.
- Take criticisms and corrections constructively. In the airline, you will be working as a team a lot. Sometimes, your more senior crew and pursers would need to correct some mistakes you omit. Take these as lessons instead of insults.
We hope that this guide to prepare to become a flight attendant would help. Everyday is a chance to make changes and improvements, which will all eventually lead you closer to your goal to be a flight attendant.
