The Layover
Together we’ll explore what it really means to be a flight attendant, and if you’re up for the trip. Being a flight attendant comes with world class benefits—travel to faraway destinations on a dime, flexible scheduling, and an opportunity to meet interesting people, yet turnover is relatively high. With the help of industry vets and fellow flight attendants, we’ll hit all the essential topics from the application process and pay to travel benefits, reserve vs. a line, and more. music by Montavio
