    Could be better

    May 10, 2023 - Flight Attendant in Fort Lauderdale, FL
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    The benefits are amazing. Very cost friendly if you are single. The family plans are a bit much. The quality of life is good if you are a line holder.

    Cons

    Of you are reserve depending on what base you are at you will either be used to the point of exhaustion or you will be begging to fly. There doesn’t seem to be a happy medium. Fort Lauderdale is very senior so reserves are used a lot. Crew scheduling doesn’t know the contract so they pull a lot of shady things. You have to know your contract.

    Pros

    The only airline with no minimum on how much you have to fly so if life happens you have the flexibility to deal with it and get back to work.

    Cons

    No compassion or understanding of life a circumstance not even a care for your health it's a lose, lose if you go in sick it's a problem and if you call out it's a problem.
