I do have a question for all of you. Since we are going to be out there for the thanksgiving holiday, Do you think we will have the day off? I know, I know, its the airlines. Just thought if anyone who has been to class can give us a clue? or any other advise on what to expect. I am shipping a box of goodies, laundry stuff, trea bags and my fav mug. Anyother adce is soooooooooo welcomed. 12 days to count down. Later |

U got an address that we can mail stuff ahead to? I wanted to do the same thing to lighten my packing load, but I wasn't sure if that'd b an option..... |

Quick question-is anyone planning to fully move to wherever they're assigned to, or is everyone going to pretty much do the commute/crash pad thing? |
|
Future FA for YV in Troutman, North Carolina 52 months ago |
No, I am sending a box out with me checking it on the flight, instead of an extra suitcase. And whatever I don't take with me to my base, I am going to send home after training. also I am hoping to get CLT but if not I am going to Crash Pad it. I own a house in Troutman NC and don't really want to move, I will get to CLT one day I am sure. |

VA4life, What is your name? I will meet you in PHX. |

Hey if anyone wants to check out My space and leave me a comment feel free wwww.myspace.com/susanrhodes hope to hear from future FA's |
|
VA4Life in Killeen, Texas 52 months ago |
I'm renting a place right now in TX, but my gf lives in Chicago (hence the reason I'm trying to get ORD), so I plan to move in with her (if the commute from her suburb to O'Hare isn't too horrendous). Oh, and my name's Santisha-can't wait to meet you! |
|
VA4Life in Killeen, Texas 52 months ago |
Oh, and in re. Thanksgiving Day, as GREAT as it would be to have the day off (planned a really big dinner/weekend with my gf), I'm putting my odds on the fact that we won't be off....it would be really nice though, huh..... |
|
Future FA for YV in Troutman, North Carolina 52 months ago |
That would be great for you. I will look for you and let you know as soon as I get my hotel info. I am flying out Monday at 925am from CLT. See you in PHX. I heard the Del Rio is awsome. sound like a college dorm........too old for all that but it does sound fun. I just hope I don't get roomed with a snorer(very light sleeper) hahaha! I am bringing lots of treats too, and My Tea bags. |
|
Future FA for YV in Troutman, North Carolina 52 months ago |
I think you may be right VA, we will not be off. No turkey for us. At least not this year. I am going on a diet anyway. :) |
|
Future FA for YV in Troutman, North Carolina 52 months ago |
Hey all, Check out this website for FA's .......I already ordered a few things........wwww.cafepress.com |
|
VA4Life in Killeen, Texas 52 months ago |
Great, I'll look for you as well! I haven't heard anything about the Del Rio or seen any pics, so again, I'm going in with an open mind....college dorm style? Yeah, that could be fun....I'm a pretty easygoing individual, so I'm hoping to get along with whomever I'm roomed with. I'm going to ATTEMPT to pack lots of goodies, but I have a feeling that I'll be making a trip to the nearby Wal-Mart! And we can at least dream of a nice turkey dinner, right???? |
|
Future FA for YV in Troutman, North Carolina 52 months ago |
GREAT! see ya there. I am heading out on lovely lake Norman for the day to study. we have a little beach island we go to allowing Tinkerbell(My little Chi-pin) to run around while my hubby helps me study. I will check in later .......have a great day. its like 80 here today. Study, study study.....I am going to hate these announcments. Bye Bye |
|
Future FA for YV in Troutman, North Carolina 52 months ago |
Good Morning Future FA's ........Well I had a day of studying yesterday and I have come to the conclusion, I HATE THESE ANNOUNCMENTS! Everyone have a good study day and good luck! |
|
VA4Life in Killeen, Texas 52 months ago |
Good Morning to you too, Future FA!!! In re. the announcements, the feeling's definitely mutual! I'm sure that we'll come to love them and know them like the backs of our hands, though!!! |

Mesa Trainee in Flagstaff, Arizona 52 months ago |
stay away from mesa guys. they put you up in the ghetto! the rumors are true. i didn't want to believe them. {( |
|
Mesa Trainee in Flagstaff, Arizona 52 months ago |
ps - there is no way you will get CLT as a base. the only bases they are really hiring for right now is washington dulles and chicago. i heard chicago is almost full. they did pull some people to phoenix. |
|
Timothy in Mesa, Arizona 52 months ago |
Well ya, the del rio is in a bad part of town, won't deny that :). But the company has its good and bad. And no, you won't get CLT right away, it would take time and senority. But people have gone to some of the more 'senior' bases recently. You most likely will start PHX, IAD or ORD :) |

Can you walk to stores? And how is the trainers? Did everyone pass the test? Thank You so much for any answers you can give. see ya on the 31st. |

Okay, Okay, I think most everyone who is sending in comments has the smarts and heart to want to try this. As in any job there is bound to be good and bad. However, PLEASE let us make the choice to go, not go, like it, dislike it or whatever. FA's are suppose to be spontaneous, out going and friendly(perky almost), and kind. So please stop with all the negitive stuff and allow us to enjoy our decision to try and be the best Flight Attendants we can be. If its that bad why are there hundred's of thousdands all over the world? Please don't answer that. I love this forum, Its been very helpful and we are all adults. GOOD LUCK everyone and be proud of the choice you made, I am! :) |

I want to fly alot. Can you help with anything that will help us get through the training? What is it like? Days off to study? and anything you can tell us about the del Rio? Can we walk to shopping? What not to bring and what to bring? Do they have irons/and boards? Just want to do my best............Email me if you can or the forum. Here is my email ppochick@yahoo.com |

Good point, Future. I think that for alot of us, this experience will be what we make of it. I've read the good and the bad, and I don't think that this opportunity will present anything that I can't handle. And, if worse come to worse, I can walk away from it if it isn't right for me. I will, however, give it a chance, because it just isn't in me to be defeated before I even try:) |
|
Future FA for YV in Troutman, North Carolina 52 months ago |
Me too! I can't wait to meet all my fellow go getters out there. Kepp positive, and be happy......that's my motto through all of this. Off to study now! |

Future FA for YV in Troutman, North Carolina 52 months ago |
VA, How is the studing going? I am so burnt out today.......taking a break and letting loose tonight. Will pick it up in the morning. |
|
YV FA in Flagstaff, Arizona 52 months ago |
I AGREE WITH DISPLACED LEGAL PROFESSIONAL. STAY AWAY FROM MESA. THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT THEIR EMPLOYEES AT ALL - WHICH IS WHY THEY HAVE TRAINING CLASSES ALL THE TIME. THE TURNOVER IS HORRIBLE. LOOK AT MAINLINE EMPLOYERS - THEY USUALLY HAVE LESS THAN 10 TRAINING CLASSES A YEAR. MESA HAS THEM ALMOST EVERY WEEK!

Best of luck to you!! As a side note (not sure if you saw my earlir post), but we don't have to have the announcements memorized for that initial test (got that straight from the recruiter that's emailed all of my info thus far). At any rate, enjoy your relaxation tonight, and I'll see you in PHX:) Questions? Comments? We're all here to help each other, right? So, hit me up at brownsugerqt@yahoo.com! |

I KNOW PILOTS WHO WORK FOR THE MAINLINES AND THAT SEEMED TO BE SOMETHING THAT WOULD KNOCK YOU OUT OF THE RUNNING FOR A PILOT POSITION. |

After reading this blog for the past couple of weeks....it has made me think about many different things. I believe EVERY job/career/company has its ups and downs. I believe it is all what you put into it. I am very excited to have the OPPORTUNITY to try my hand in the airlines. In preparing for my training class...of course all the studying...the shopping of clothing which is required and supplies,yesterday I added a flu shot to my list. My local pharmacy offers them for $25.00. Small investment. I look forward to meeting all of you! Keep the positive attitude ladies! See you soon!
