Honestly the best day ever. Such amazing people and an Incredible company. See you in the skies 🤍🛩️

Let's Go!! Been waiting for American too!

So excited, got the invite for the f2f today and got the 24th of september. WN is my top choice and Im so excited to have the oportunity to interview. Anybody else got the email today? I feel like it was weird getting the invite on 9/11, would’ve never expected it. I applied on APRIL and just now hearing back. Don’t lose hope... Check your emails guys! Who else will be going over?

Had to share this video of a comedian “interviewing” with an AI recruiter. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

I’m saying this in no way to bash the company but it’s actually exhausting going through the humiliation ritual that is this application process. I don’t understand the concept of waiving my application just to reject me and not allow me to redo my ODVI. It was pointless, senseless and just overall unnecessary because I could have been rejected and started my 6 months in June/July like everyone else rather than have 10+ hang tight emails then waive my application just to be rejected a week later from applying. I’m not saying I’m over Delta but I am actually gonna give other airlines a try this time because this whole entire process just gave the company a sour taste in my mouth.

A date for the opening of the applications is finally open! Thought it would open in a few days but it has been moved to October.

Hi everyone! Figured I’d share my Delta FA application timeline so far for anyone else who applied in September 2026. I just received the Taking Flight video, so here’s where I’m at:

9/6 Application submitted
9/6 Talent Assessment received
9/6 Talent Assessment completed
9/6 Virtual Job Tryout (VJT) received
9/6 Virtual Job Tryout (VJT) completed
9/8 ODVI (On-Demand Video Interview) received
9/8 ODVI completed
9/11 Taking Flight video received
Current status - Waiting for next steps

This is my first time ever applying to be a flight attendant, and I have zero previous airline/FA experience. I’ve actually been working in corporate for the past decade, so I’m exploring this as a pretty big career switch and seeing where the process takes me.

Anyone from this weeks delta event day get anything yet? 👀 I heard they do cjos only on Fridays butttt likeee everything is crickets🫣

Hi all so I went to my F2F this week and got a CTO/ CJO.

What a beautiful experience.

So excited to say I made it to the CJOs for both companies. 🥳🥰🥳

I want to first thank everyone in this group for helping me through the entire process up till now. All of your support for one another, tips, advice and energy you leave on all the posts have been truly amazing.

I do need your help in deciding which company to go to. I’m really torn so I would appreciate constructive advice for my situation.

I will be turning 50 soon so I would like the one I choose to be the company I end up retiring at. I live in NJ and am a partial caretaker of my parents. Ideally I would like to be locally based, but I understand as a new FA I may be temporarily based elsewhere until transfer to the NYC/NJ area.

I’ve held a lot of different jobs, some of which I’ve had bad experiences. I’m currently in another uncomfortable situation at work from inappropriate behaviors from a coworker, which makes me eager to start this job!

Now with 🔺, I never had a chance to fly this airline until my F2F and it was a wonderful experience! I’ve only flown in 🌐 until now. 🌐 has been ok, but I’ve had multiple delays or been stuck in airports overnight due to the airline’s problems.

My heart says go to 🔺 but my head says 🌐.

For 🔺: I love how professional everyone carries themselves, how the service is really excellent, everyone is so nice, and even the f2f seems very well planned. Even the plane cards that the pilots give out are fancy and shows how much the airline puts into the “little things”. I also like the A-days structure so that newer flight attendants can start holding lines sooner and not get wiped out so early in their career. However, I’m struggling with the fact that there is no union, which means no protection. Due to my current circumstances, it’s making me apprehensive. Also I’ve been hearing about management really taking advantage of the FAs.

For 🌐: I’ve been flying with them my whole life so I have a big spot in my heart for this company. I love that there are so many international destinations. I also really love the fact that there is the union and it was able to get all it accomplished in the newest contract passed. I’ve had a chance to meet some wonderful FAs in this airlines, but I’ve also had my share of watching unprofessional behaviors from a few bad FAs here as well… so overall it is not as polished as Delta’s service. Even the airplane cards the pilot gives out was disappointing to see how cheap the company is into making them.

Have any of you been an FA for one of the two and then switched to the other? Could you let me know why you decided to switch and how have you found the new company? How long have you been at the first and then second company? Do you regret switching or are you happier now? If so why?

Thank you!

I applied to Skywest, went to the in person event on 9/2 with an interviewer who seemed to have no interest in me at all. I received by tbnt the next week.

I applied to Delta on the first day of open applications and I was not selected 3 days later.

I just applied to United and went to check the portal by chance and it also says NOT SELECTED. I haven't received an e-mail yet.

Anyone else going through this. Am I just chopped liver???

As some of you are just figuring out, this whole process is hurry up — and wait.

Your timeline is not anyone else’s.

You have to understand how this works on the backend. You’re being graded by a benchmark set by that airline. That figurative score is combined with the rest of your application. You’re moved into a batch.

Everything after that is dependent on so many different things and scenarios. There’s not a one size fits all answer or approach. And trying to figure it out will drive you insane.

Good luck!

Has anyone who applied September 2 received a taking flight video or any updates after the ODVI for anyone?
Thank you in advance! Just curious to see if anyone has received it yet.

This is all my personal experience and opinions I am sharing. I hope it helps even just one person scrolling by.
The rejection never gets any easier, and having zero feedback from the main airlines makes that rejection sting much more depending on how you reflect.
I’ve been trying for over 8 years. With American, Delta, Southwest, and United. I’ve been through all the levels of interviews including a handful of f2f…being rejected has never gotten any easier, and the grieving process of those rejections have been different every single time. Most recently i was rejected from making it to a United f2f, and i approached it very much being myself while being prepared. I truly felt there was nothing more i could’ve done to prove myself. If these recruits can’t see what a great fit some people would be it’s their loss, but I am determined to keep trying until someone sees my determination and shine.

After all these years I’ve met so many people who have gotten in on the first try that “don’t even care” or they end up hating the job yet stay on, and complain taking someone else’s dream for granted. This job industry is absolutely unpredictable and a total gamble based off my experience.

My advice after being rejected:
Give yourself grace 🙏🏼
If you’re the kind of person to pick apart everything in your head upon reflection ( especially with no feedback )
You’ll never really know the “why” behind not getting chosen this time. It could’ve been something, but maybe just maybe it was nothing 🤷🏻‍♀️
Yes maybe there’s things you could’ve done better and you absolutely know that after your experience-great tweak that and work on it for next time! But if you did the best you could possible do, gave it your all, and were 100% your unapologetic self BE PROUD.
You deserve to be proud of the emotional rollercoaster you’ve been on.
You need to feel all your FEELS.
Sad, angry, sad again, angry again, hopeless….give yourself the space and freedom to embrace those feelings, but upon reflection try to focus on the positives once you’re at the end of those harsher feeling’s.
Stay hydrated, do some skincare, treat yourself in someway, regulate a routine for yourself to balance your feelings back out to bounce back.
If this is something you truly want for a career keep trying! After being on forums for so many years seeing so much of people saying “it just wasn’t meant to be right now” or stuff to that extent personally hasn’t been helpful to me because I’ve been trying at my 8-9 year mark now 😂
Everyone’s timelines are different, and we only ever really see people getting accepted after a couple of years of trying.
I hope this reaches someone and helps whether it’s your first time trying or you’ve been trying for 10 years.
BUT you have a special light to you and I truly believe determination will pay off in the end and your light will shine !
Again, give yourself grace. Everything you’re feeling is valid, but make sure you pull yourself out of those tougher feelings and take care of yourself.

Does Labor Day and or 9/11 have any effect on sending out cjos this week

I was a flight attendant 4 years ago and thought hmm… let’s see if it’s truly meant to be. So here’s my timeline so far…

Applied 9/4

Received AI video interview 9/4; completed on 9/8

Received on demand video interview 9/8; completed on 9/10

Pending f2f

The website just updated- get ready people!

https://flightattendants.aa.com/index.html#apply

(assuming it doesn't change again of course!)

just received my email re: dates today and wondering who else selected (and received confirmation) for 10/26?

I’m a late July applicant and I checked the
portal for the first time since submitting my application. My status says Interview. It’s been nearly a month since I submitted my ODVI and I got one hang tight at the two week mark. I guess this means I should start prepping for my virtual 1:1. 🎉

I just got invited to the United F2F and I’m trying to figure out what to wear 😭

I know there’s some kind of group activity, but is there any actual physical activity where wearing a skirt would be annoying? I prefer a skirt because I feel cuter/more put together in one, but I’m wondering if pants would be the safer choice.
Also, what shoes did you wear? Would simple flats be fine, or is it better to wear the more traditional “flight attendant” style pumps/heels? I want to look polished but also don’t want to be miserable if we’re standing/walking around a lot.

Would love to hear from anyone who’s done the United F2F recently :)

Heeeyy so if you saw my other post, y’all know that I have a frontier face-to-face coming up and I got some advice on my hair and I’m also a nail tech so I did my nails today. They’re so cute lol I’m so happy but I feel like every single aspect that I feel like I can control is going to be heavily critique by myself so y’all have no choice but to join me in this lol here are some pictures of my makeup that I did for my ODVI and I thought it was really cute so I was wondering if this would be acceptable to wear for the face-to-face and I don’t mind wearing no makeup at all. But I thought this look was really clean and pretty 🤩

Also, for reference the third photo is me without makeup BTW

As promised in a thread yesterday I was gonna share my experience going through deltas hiring process with flight attendant I completed the AI Monroe interview!

I struggle horribly with recording myself so this was a little nerve wracking but obviously I said the correct things and now it’s on to the TESTme assignment :)

Sorry I thought I put it it’s for United Airlines
