First of you are not cabin crew...most times you are not considered crew on the plane you may be manifested as a passenger. You are indeed a type of servant while working in the middle east. You will order all the catering so you will need to know the best restaurants and corporate catering firms around the world. You will need to spruce up the cabin, wash dishes, handle having the linens laundered, purchase general supplies for the aircraft i.e. toilet paper, soft drinks, tissues etc.

In the USA you are not permitted to perform first aid, command an evacuation/ditching or operate the AED unless you have been trained by the specific company you are working for. If you are working for a family and the aircraft is not used for charter, you really will be responsible for EVERYTHING from picking up dry cleaning to changing diapers! (If there are children hopefully there is a nanny).

Pay for a cabin attendant on a private owned aircraft full time should be approximately 7000 USD per month. Or 85,000USD per year.

If you work for a charter operator a daily rate is 500USD per day international and 450USD per day domestic.
