  • This is my flight attendant story! In this video, I tell you about how I got into the flight attendant life and made my way to flight attendant training.
    You'll get to know a little about my background and some behind-the-scenes of how to become a flight attendant and the process I went through to get the job.
    Let me know if you have any questions in the comments, maybe I'll do a video about it!

    I love your content and no BS attitude! Do you have any advice for someone in their early 50s getting ready to start applying to airlines? My youngest graduates from HS next year. Also, I don't have a 4-year degree but currently working on my Associates. I do have 18 years of f2f customer service behind me though.

    • @theawkwardflightattendant

    Hi Kelly! I really enjoyed your vid. I started following you about a month ago when your channel was new because I love living vicariously through travel videos…ha, ha. I live in LA so it was cool to find a flight attendant whose home base was our home airport (LAX). I got so excited when hearing your education background. I’m Wolf Pack alumni as well. I never meet people here in LA who have gone to University of Nevada, Reno so it was fun to hear your story. Love your videos and am looking forward to following many more of your adventures! 💙🤍

    Try and get yourself on a flight through Des Moines in the summer so you could go at least to the Farmer's Market on a Saturday morning. That would be a great snack on the layover there.
