My family used to love to brag about me. Oh, don’t get me wrong. It wasn’t because I was the greatest sister, or mother, or daughter who ever lived, but because they flew just about anywhere for free or at a discounted rate.

My mother spent a week at an Arizona spa, without her favorite daughter, I might add. My niece flew on a buddy pass to Hong Kong to visit her boyfriend and didn’t even send me a postcard. My dear, sweet son traveled around the country to check out colleges, even though there was a perfectly good one less than a mile from home. Don’t get me wrong. It’s not that they’re ungrateful; they do call on occasion or send me a quick email while waiting to board a (free) flight to Spain, but a floral arrangement or box of chocolates every now and then would be nice.

Did I mention they can usually fly first class? That’s even more salt for them to rub into the wounds of their poor friends who fly coach and miss out on the hot towels and warm, flaky croissants.

So, having a Flight Attendant Career will not only give you a chance to see the world, but you’ll find yourself suddenly quite popular with friends and relatives you didn’t even know you had. I can see how all my time spent in Flight Attendant School certainly has paid off, not only for me, but for my friends and family as well!
