Introduction
One
of the important aspects of travel by air is concerned with making the journey
of the passenger as much comfortable and safe. It is in this respect the Air
hostess/Pursers play their role.
This
is a very promising career option with the vision of a smart, efficient lady in
mind. Many young girls opt for the career because of the exciting experience of
flying, visiting different places, interacting with different kinds of people
on board and for the very attractive pay package. Liberalization of air policies
have increased the private operation of air services and this has created
immense job opportunities in this field. Even though this career gives exciting
experience it is not as easy as it seems. This is a highly demanding job which
requires a lot of patience and involves odd duty hours. To be more specific
behind this career lies a strong conviction, commitment and hard work for
learning the technical aspects of aircraft operation and skills to tackle difficult
situation.
The
air hostess is called the first person to welcome a passenger, her welcoming
smile and greeting acknowledge every passenger. Inside the aircraft, she seems
to be here, there and everywhere, greeting every passenger, guiding each to his
or her seat, helping a passenger get settled, coordinating security personnel,
giving directions as and when required and doing a myriad things. Basically,
she’s on constant call all the time.
