Getting Hired as a Corporate Flight Attendant

Once you are established in the profession and have a job with a major airline, then you can be on the lookout for a well paid position as a corporate flight attendant. This means you should be able to make cold calls to potential employers that you find out may be interested in hiring attendants. This can also mean calling friends who know of such positions and they can keep their ears open for possible employment for you.

Attending conferences and meetings will also bring you into contact with people who are in the know of such positions. You can even frequent places where you know pilots hang out and then by getting to know them you can put the word out that you are looking for such a job. The pilots of corporate aircraft will know if their employers are hiring attendants for their jets.

Local airports also sponsor seminars at various times of the year when they invite corporations and those who use the airport for their private planes. Attending these functions will also put you in contact with owners of jets who just may be interested in your skills.

If you have culinary skills in combination with your flight attendant training, you will be in a good position to get hired for this type of job. This is because preparing meals will be part of your job, and not just ordinary meals. The meals served on these aircraft re gourmet meals. Having knowledge of wines and being able to make the plates look very attractive is also a bonus.


The drawback of working as a corporate flight attendant, is the lack of flexibility you will have with your schedule. You will be at the call of the corporation and sometimes be gone for weeks at a time. If this isn't a problem, then this could be a great job for you. You will not get benefits on other airlines, but perhaps the pay can offset this.

The article about flight attendant making 6 figures, must only pertain to corporate flight attendants who have the budget to pay their employees that much. The starting pay for most major carriers fall in the realistic range of 20,000 per year.
