Ya ... there's usually a biased for better looking woman. It's not that suprising; in this day and age, society looks for "eye-candy."

If you want to be a stewardess for Korean Air, try to be at least bilingual in Korea and English. It would be even better if you knew Japanese and Cantonese/Madarin since Korean Air branches out to those countries too.

I would still go to college and maybe major in Communications or Business and minor in Foreign Studies or Korean.

You still need education just in case you don't make it to becoming a stewardess.

that and the fact one needs to bear with flights lasting 10+ hours, being able to maneuver within the aircraft. but yeah, the prettiness factor is big.

[dahanizzle]

yea..the image of stewardesses (at least the ones i've met) is very..high..

i recently took a trip to japan and all of the stewardesses had amazing bodies, some of them were even like..model material..freaking gorgeous. made my 14 hour trip slightly better hahaha

That is so true, you also have to be 5'3"+. I'm not kidding about the height either.

[poopoo]

^ aww that sucks then T_T

yea u have to be a certain height so u can reach for the shelves on the top. the stewardess that was talkin said that she had a lil height test and she was probably around...5'3" and they let her jump a little so she could pass

my cousin used to be a stewardess for korean air.
she hated it.

but she is tall, skinny and gorgeous.

She was an american citizen so she got paid in US dollars.

sorry that's all the info i have.

My mom was a flight attendant for Cathy Pacific back when she was in her 20s haha. She said that she sent in an application including a photo of herself (since they do care about appearance). Then she went through rounds of interviews- they sounded difficult. they gave her hypothetical situations like "what would you do if you were serving someone a drink and suddenly there was turbulence and you spilled the drink all over the person?"

haha and then... training. and that's it!

[OOOOO]

ohh i would totally love to become one but im so scared of flying..
well im not sure but when i went to the hollywood bowl for concert there wre korean airline stewardesses OMG THEY WERE ALLLL SOOO FREAKEN PRETTY!! THEY WERE LIKE TALL WHITE NICE BODY THEY WERE LIKE CELEBS!!!

[소지섭 <3]

^ stacy? hahahaha yeaa i think it's you..i can tell by your font =)

[Delster]

you can go directly to their site and check it out.

Generally, you need to have:
- at least 1 year experience in the hospitality industry
- high scool graduate
- have reached the age of majority in the Airlines' country of origin (i.e. for a Canadian airline, you have to be at least 19 but for an American airline, 21)
- speak the Airlines' language and in most cases (I think with the exception of American based airlines) a second. Some, like Air Canada will require a written test of both language.
- must be able to reach the baggage storage at the top - this height will depend on the plane model
- have a valid passport to travel in and out of countries

Yeah, I wanted to be a flight attendant for a while; make some money for post-secondary. But I was like months under turning 19 when Zoom Airlines was hiring, I had all the requirements except my age They told me to apply later but I don't think that's going to happen since I'm already in college.. but I'll travel the world sometime
