Life as a flight attendant

A short impression of what it's like to work as a flight attendant for a charter airline. Lots of hard work, but also lots of fun. This footage is a compilation of videos taken between 2000-2002 showing me and my collegues.

@AubreyMan2012 I certainely wouldn't call it a loser job, since you travel the whole world for free and are allowed to stay at the coolest places. When you work in an office you don't get anywhere.

atfatw : Well, maybe thats what it takes for you to be a flight attendant. But infact it takes a hell of alot of training to look after people. We dont just serve meals or look good. We are there for medical emergencys. We are there for security. If you are hijacked, you woudl shit your pants, however we have to deal with it and deal with it we do! We work long hours, we get tired, we get people liek you who are ignorant bimbos who clearly know sweet fa!

As a retired flight attendant with a career of almost 40 years, I can honestly say I wouldn't change a thing. I am so grateful for the best possible lifestyle and friendships that are worth everything to me.

@jellydrix It may be a hard job but millions of women around the world would give their right arm to serve drinks on board an air plane as a flight attendant.

I wouldn't want their job, I feel for them. Dealing with all those fat, lazy, idiots who think the world revolves around them. I'd rather deploy again to Afghanistan....

Hi. Luv this vid. I was crew for 10 years. Charter, but with 1st class on 767 like this.

Our rear galley was almost the same, but it brought so many memories back seeing you guys work non stop, without rest, like we did.

I was UK airline.

Leisure International, then Air 2000/First Choice Airways.

@beatricebordercollie You try working 15 hours a day, with only 4 hours of sleep between flights, and being away from your family from anywhere from 15-20 days a month. I'd like to see you in the shoes of a flight attendant. you have to deal with rude passengers, turbulence, the possibility of an emergency, and so many other possibilities. your occupation is as voluntary as any flight attendants. you're an idiot who has NO idea what you're talking about. go lift things it's all your good for.
