    Hola, I have been a bilingual teacher in Texas for 15 years and I am ready to change careers. I am divorced and an empty nester. My two children are already in College. Your videos motivated me to take this big leap. ❤

      Even though I may appear to be in my 30s, I’m actually 45 years old. I’m unsure whether my age will have any impact. I’m fluent in Spanish and German. Do I need to take an exam to prove my fluency, and what is the process for doing so? I would appreciate any assistance. Thank you ❤

      @@Alejandra-lf6wv Age is a nonfactor we have flight attendants who are 75+ and still flying! Many start this career as a second career! It is not an advantage or disadvantage to be hired as an LOD. If I were you I would just apply as a regular flight attendant and then decide if you want to do the LOD program later. My friends who have done the LOD program, do not enjoy it because they often go to the same routes over and over again, which limits the exploring options unless you pick up and it's harder to swap your trips as you have to swap with another LOD which is a small number of flight attendants in the grand scheme. Often times it also limits your base options let's say they need Language of Destination (Lod) flight attendants in Boston, well you will be going to BOS and will be stuck there and have to to commute or move for your duration of the LOD commitment. These are some of the negatives but there are positives too! Like being able to hold trips at a junior level that only senior regular flight attendants can hold. But it will be the same international destinations repeatedly. But yes, you will have to prove efficiency after being hired.

    I have a question I can’t be a flight attendant now because I have a 16 year old son, but when he graduates I am gonna go for it. Can you let me know if I find a way to do the 6 week training. Can you do flight attendant part time? And work a full time job?

    I live in NYC , I have an in person interview next week in Charlotte,NC. I’m extremely nervous but excited. Anywho, I was watching your video and you said if you live in “New Orleans but your base is NY , you have to find a way to get to your base.” My question is will the airline pay for my flight ? Or do I pay for my own flight and then get reimbursed from the airline ?
    Love your videos , and thanks for answering if you can.

    I’m a registered nurse and I say I’m going to try to be a flight attendant when my girls get 18 but what I don’t understand is why flight attendants don’t apply for certain bases. As in.. a base actually post a job for flight attendant online and then you apply to that base. You should know during interview process and training that you applied and got the job at the base you applied to.
