What's The Best Airline To Work For? || Flight Attendant Vlog

[@NicksDynasty]

Delta (You start off with only 6 reserve days a month) and Southwest (Can rack up extra hours from your base credit) make the most money and the companies are strong fiscally and are a great place to work like JetBlue.

[@MrAmmo2021]

Glad your flight down was easy. It's nice that you're telling everyone what they should look for in an airline. Definitely not a common job most people know alot about

[@BalancedFlyer]

That’s true!

[@megelsey2405]

Yes! Great advice! All about the good vibes & values for an airline. It’s literally how I connected to the airline I fly for as well 😊

[@BalancedFlyer]

Yes just go with your gut!

Hi Vera I enjoyed your latest video. It’s obvious you have a lot of experience working as a flight attendant and that was great advice picking an airline to work for. You make all your viewers wanting you to be happy not depressed. I wish I was more like you eating healthy and getting enough exercise. Always stay safe.

So I know what you mean about the weather and getting dark by 5:30pm in the Fall & winter. I love Connecticut , but I don’t love the weather. 😂 Lol! Moved to South Florida last year and I love it!

What an interesting question young lady, my Cousin Lisa would say Delta since that is her employer but I guess it depends on your base and benefits and so on. She lives in the Atlanta area and would probably never relocate out of a base in the South. The South is where our families heart lies. Stay safe Vera. ✈️ ✌️👍

Hi Vera! I know this vlog is like over a year later from the time you've uploaded this video (and somehow I am not seeing your vlogs appear on my page lately somehow) - but anyways, it was meant to be, because I watched a recently uploaded vlog some moments ago and then this one appeared... very wordy sentence I know lol 🤦🏻🤣🤗🙇‍♂️ I really appreciate you and I really needed to see this vlog and the West Palm Beach vlog where you had than 17hr + duty day - my goodness what a day that must have been! I really needed these two vlogs to put me back on track. I really needed to be reminded - going back to basics 101 (for me) which is post-grad PHD (for you) learning and I appreciate you so much. I am going through it (right now) like I have been put through THE test lately and I needed this so much. Thank YOU very very much for your time and effort - it's been a real blessing for me to watch these vlogs today. I appreciate you. Happy Flying Always! - Michael 🤗🙇‍♂️✨🙏☺️

The most popular event in Fort Worth, TX is the stockyards where you see live cattle. Being from Dallas, Texas, I love pork rinds since I was a kid (my late father (country boy) would buy them for me when he went to the liquor store). Same reason as you, I did not become an airport employee for the money (there was a time where no one in the Department of Aviation at Dallas Love Field airport was getting raises (for several years) because of the City of Dallas budget problems in the 1990s; I chose to work for the Department because of the excitement working around aircraft activity, job security, health insurance and pension (which I get since I am retired). Someone asked me would I work at an airport again knowing the challenges of the work schedule and little pay; my answer is YES!!!!!!!! because I am able to retire at an early age. People react strangely when I tell them I am retired.

[@BalancedFlyer]

I went to the stockyards! It’ll be in my next vlog.

[@ivannellaveras766]

I personally think the 3 legacy carriers are the most difficult in hiring. Delta is especially difficult. On the other hand, Spirit is relatively easier in hiring. I think it is important to point out that one must live within 50 miles of their base. If they even get that city as a base, when they start working.

United?

Hey Vera. Thanks so much for your insightful video. I have, I think, a unique situation. I’m doing extensive research and looking at when airlines are hiring.

I’m concerned about getting called for an interview etc while school is in session… (😩) Any insight would be greatly appreciated ❤️
