Life of an Air Hostess: A Day in the Sky
“Air hostesses just serve food.” — That’s what most people think. But the real day of a cabin crew is far more intense. Here’s an insider peek into what truly happens behind the glamour.
Pre-Flight: More Than Makeup
• Crew report 2–3 hours before takeoff.
• Attend briefing sessions: routes, passengers, safety updates.
• Pass strict grooming checks (uniform, hair, nails, makeup).
Boarding & Takeoff
• Warm welcome at the door — but crew are secretly scanning for unfit or suspicious passengers.
• Safety demo isn’t for show — airlines conduct surprise checks on how well crew perform it.
In-Flight Realities
• Serving passengers while also monitoring cabin security and emergencies.
• Handling unruly passengers (yes, it happens more than you think).
• Medical duties — crew are trained in CPR, first aid, and even childbirth assistance.
Layovers: Not Always Holidays
• Foreign layovers sound exciting, but most are short rest breaks due to fatigue rules.
• Crew must follow strict alcohol & curfew policies abroad.
