Flight attendants are typically only paid during flight time; when flights get delayed, they’re often forced to work longer days without compensation for the wait time — all while dealing with unsustainable schedules, exhaustion, and frustrated travelers
I’ve been a flight attendant for seven months. I knew it wouldn’t be sunshine and daisies, but I didn’t think about how tiring it would be on my body — the unexpected layovers, the delays. There are days I work six flights in a day, in four-inch heels, dealing with passengers who don’t understand that I’m not just a bartender in the air.
Delays cut into my personal time. There are nights when I’m supposed to be home by 8:30 and it’s almost 2 a.m. by the time I get home. When am I supposed to sleep or do my laundry? I’m exhausted. When I come home from work, I’m a zombie.
