Cabin Crew /Flight Attendant /Stewardess//steward /Cabin Attendant

I have come across with people asking me about "HOW TO BE A STEWARDESS".

First of all,
guys and girls,
Please don't get confused with the terminology.
As per the title of this post,
"Cabin Crew"
"Flight attendant"
"stewardess/stewards"
"Cabin Attendant"
all bring the same meaning of it.

In this post, I will use Flight Attendant then.
Requirement for Flight Attendant ain't that high.

In Malaysia, common requirements will be at least:
1. Credit in SPM (having a good score of cause will be much better)
2. Height at least 158cm
3. Eyesight : Power not too high. Contact lenses are acceptable
4. Knowing more language will be an advantage
5. BMI (height and weight) must be in normal range
6. Normally maximum age for fresh applicant is 24 years old
7. Without visible mark/tattoo
For overseas, common requirements are slightly higher with additional of: 
8. at least having A-Level certificate (STPM/Diploma/Foundation...)
9. highest touch with your finger is 212cm
10. No birth mark/tattoo

2 ways to be a flight attendant:
1. Go through some private training center.
 You pay for the training, no secure job,they will do their best in arranging you for the airlines interview after training completed.
2. Apply through airlines (website/walk in interview).
You will be trained by airlines after you have successfully make through a few stages and competition. Job is secured. Fully sponsored by the airlines.



How much a flight attendant can earn per month?
It varies. From 3000MYR to 10,000MYR. It depends on airlines, currency, sector allowance, night stop and etc.

Common airlines which apply by Malaysian to be a flight attendant:
1. Malaysia Airlines
2. Firefly
3. Maswings
4. AirAsia
5. Eithad
6. Qatar
7. Emirates
8. Singapore Airlines
9. Cathay Pacific
10. Korea Airlines
Not to forget, the up coming...
11. Malindo (soon to start operating in mid year of 2013)


If you're hoping to be a sponsored flight attendant and keen to be...
follow the steps below:
Open a "GOOGLE/YAHOO/SAFARI" search with "XXXX (Airlines names)" --> check under "career(s)"

Don't get confused with the terminology used by different countries.
All the Best!
