When I grow up I want to be a JetBlue pilot and that’s in 2030 actually I’m almost a teenager

[@oluwawamirionakoya3287]

Congratulations for those who have been training alot with jetBlue, ever since I've flew jetBlue out of New York/Laguardia to Orlando Florida that flight was a smooth flight

[@deltaboy767]

I am so proud of every single one of you that graduated from JetBlue University. Congratulations. Welcome to the industry. I've been at this for 28 years And still love it every day. So welcome to the skies. Cheers from Atlanta.

[@ChristopherKellum]

That is awesome thank you for sharing Ashley! I’m going to guess Delta?!

[@deltaboy767]

@@ChristopherKellum Indeed it is Delta.

[@deltaboy767]

@@ChristopherKellum And I can remember back in the day when we had the L1011 in our fleet, I loved working the 1011, especially on our transatlantic flights, my very first red eye was on an L1011 from LAX to ATL this was 1992.

Congratulations!! Our daughter graduated just before you started on March 21. She loves loves loves it. She was assigned to Boston for one month and has been in Ft Lauderdale ever since. jetBlue is an amazing company to work for. Enjoy your new career!! Great video by the way :)

Are you still with Jetblue? Im in my final week for inflight.

Why is it so hard?? 😓🤦🏻‍♀️

[@ChristopherKellum]

It was more just an information OVERLOAD! easy info just so much to take in at once!

[@sylmanyeki9323]

Chris, this video is my top motivational/inspirational! When life gives me lemons, i just think of positive things, like aviation!!!

[@leefaith414]

I was there today! Beautiful facility as I walked through it.

[@ChristopherKellum]

Beautiful indeed and I hear they are expanding it!

[@leefaith414]

Christopher, yes they are! They’ve already filled in the pool and building another one in a different location. Apparently where the pool was, an additional parking lot will take it’s place.

[@ChristopherKellum]

Expansion is going to be great ! ill be there in a few weeks!

Appreciate it, Steve it was definitely a demanding training but well worth it, love the company !

[@CabinCrewChat]

Congratulations, Chris! Wow, as an aspiring flight attendant, this video was so inspirational and encouraging to watch. I found your channel through KZbin recommended videos and I'm so glad I came across your channel! I can't wait for layover videos and more vlogs from you! Liked and subscribed!

[@yokweification]

Very nice video and everyone seems so happy. I just applied an hour ago!

[@ChristopherKellum]

Everyone was super happy to be done, the information they give you and learn is a lot to take it but a relief once you are done and pass!, and good luck!!

[@anthonyarias4559]

How long does it take

[@ChristopherKellum]

31 days!

[@Austrianontravels]

Congrats on graduating! It feels so good to get those wings after training, doesn't it?

[@ChristopherKellum]

Thank you very much, and it sure does, i really was caught off guard with the amount of information you are required to study and retain, but have a new respect for flight attendants because of the training that is required to graduate

[@deltaboy767]

@@ChristopherKellum Makes me remember my graduation 28 long years ago, in Atlanta, so you know the airline I work for, and let me tell you darling, that feeling when they pinned those wings on me, was euphoric, never felt anything like that. And I'm so glad you choose this carrer, even though its changed drastically over the years, you still have respect where as a lot of young new Flight Attendants have the attitude that because of their youth they should have instant seniority, you have to work for that, and I can tell by watching your videos you will climb that ladder quick. Welcome to the industry Darling. Give all you've got my dear Kellum. Heck I'm probably old enough to be your grandmother.

[@Beyondordinary555]

Where do you apply ?

[@ChristopherKellum]

Applications are closed for JB right now but I believe delta is hiring!

[@vaniaabel8805]

I will be going to training end of April or early May. I must say, your videos give me the motivation and excitement for training and to get those wings pinned. Thank you 💙🧡.

[@ChristopherKellum]

Congratulations on getting the job! and your words mean a lot to me, training is a great time enjoy it!

[@marlininfante141]

I want this job. Whats the first thing you did?

[@ChristopherKellum]

First thing I did was get my resume in order and created a cover letter for each company i was going to apply to, make sure to do research out what airliens look for in resumes and make it professional

[@lifeofaking8467]

I'd love to have that job!

[@ChristopherKellum]

just missed the application window! it closed the 7th but im sure other airlines are hiring !

[@aalinaaxo]

Whats the required attire for training? I see everybody looking pretty sharp!

[@ChristopherKellum]

Training is business casual attire and then on weekend or Fridays you can wear Jeans and a polo!

[@karelysmendozzza]

Is there any information or people that can give me an orientation for the flight attendant program?

[@ChristopherKellum]

What kind of information are you looking for? id be happy to answer them for you!

[@karelysmendozzza]

Christopher Kellum How do you get into the University and age requirement for flight attendant program there ? I also live in Puerto Rico so I’m not sure how it would work.

[@ChristopherKellum]

Im not sure about living in puerto rico, but I do work with someone who commutes from puerto rico to boston when he has to work, so it is possible, i believe its 18 years or older, you have to pass all the interviews and then you will get an invite to jetblue university to complete training

[@karelysmendozzza]

Thank you.

[@karelysmendozzza]

Btw do you recommend studying something before or anything specific ? I took tourism and hospitality in high school but afterwards I assume anything that has to do with customer service?

[@urnishercule]

Hi, Chris thanks for sharing. Great video. Hope all is well with you. How's the job going. How long do you have to do trianing for? Any pointers for operations crew interview would be great.

[@ChristopherKellum]

The job is going great especially since i am a line holder now! and better pay and hours! and training is 31 days long, and for operations crew i would check glassdoor job reviews i am unfamiliar with their process

[@sandramorales943]

Hiiii!! Chris hope all is still going well for you and Shanleigh in JB I just received my questionnaire inflight notice from JB I am terrified don't wanna screw it up any tips?? Aghhhh Sooo excited... I have been through the NYC police academy and TSA FLETC not to long ago do you think I would have an issue with JB?? terrified...about the on line interview, BTW thanks for responding

[@ChristopherKellum]

Hello!! read them thoroughly they are repeat questions just worded differently so stay consistent with your answers! and no you shouldn't have an issue! good luck and let me know how it goes! We are doing great, thank you for asking, just patiently waiting for our own lines!

[@NneniaYasmeen]

These videos have me sooo excited!! I have a Blue Review next month in LGB! I was wondering about how long reserve is for a JFK based crew member? Also, Ive heard LGB was pretty senior. About how long would it take to be based there? Any advice for the Blue Review is appreciated as well. Thank you!!

[@ChristopherKellum]

The word around town is the quickest spots to get a line will be BOS or JFK, time frame not sure but I have heard an average of a year on reserve. LGB is pretty senior yes, and it all depends on the time you come in there may be spots open, but most likely your first base will be JFK,BOS or eve FLL but it is possible to get LGB, i just met a girl who did LGB her first 2 years but left because its hard to get off reserve there. and I am going to post a video this week on how to do well and stand out in your interview! be on the look out !

[@NneniaYasmeen]

Awesome! I will definitely be on the look out. I just subscribed to your channel. Thank you again!

I appreciate the feedback, and thank you!

[@sethelledge8447]

aalways!

[@mskeyp09]

yay! CONGRATULATIONS ! I got my CJO in Dec. , going through the pre-employment process before getting training information. But they told me since I was the last group of the year I possibly will be training in March OR April! super excited! I was also told my group will probably get based in NYC - JFK due to last groups getting all based in Boston! I am hoping this is true since I live here and would like JFK as my base. Where were you based? We were also told you need to be 3 months in your assigned base before you can put in a transfer request , but I read in one of the comments you stating someone was transferred in a month from boston to FLL?

[@ChristopherKellum]

Congratulations, Stephanie!! you must be super excited, and those would be great months to stay in Orlando for training! I am currently based in BOS, it was my choice since I have family here, for you JFK would be perfect so you don't have to commute I know commuters that are on reserve and its very tough! and yeah it all depends on if there is spots open at other bases, people in my class got lucky and spots opened up in FLL so they spent one month in BOS and went to FLL after

[@sandramorales943]

OMG!!! LOVE So excited heard they are going to have openings for JB soon go my account and resume ready to go great video I live 2 min away from the university I currently work for TSA but really want to work for JB what are the am and pm class hours do you get to pick what time you prefer the class or is that something the choose for you?? I really hope they notify me for the interview its always been my dream job since a little girl..

[@ChristopherKellum]

That is awesome! i hope you got your application in and that would be the ideal situation for training although JB university is a cool spot to stay! you don't get to pick if you are AM or PM... Im not sure how they divide it up but we had a class of 75 got split into AM and PM and then the those AM and PM got split in two. let me know when you get an offer and good luck!
