I'm really not sure on this. The money isn't great as well. Something tells me it's not worth it for that life style it brings, on that amount of cash - basically not a good deal.

Is there any future development in cabin crew, Senior Cabin Crew??


I do have my PPL and love flying/travelling, but I'm beginning to wonder if this is such a wise move whilst discovering these facts as I'm not exactly desperate wanabee crew, but rather the pilot aspect of it all lol!
If you want to get quick promotion its a doddle, they did summer promotions for assistant purser and purser and 2 months later...they're doing recruitment again as lots of them have resigned already! You need 6 months with the company if you have flown before to get AP. Having said that BA mainline cabin crew earn more than a GB purser!

It's certainly not everyone's cup of tea....although quite a few crew hang on in GB for a while. My opinion is if you have a choice and don't mind trips, go somewhere else.
