In the US a company (airline or other) cannot discriminate based on age and other factors. If a 60 year old is competitive in the interview process then they will get hired. Once you are over 50 you are protected against age discrimination by the EEOC. The older f/a's in the US can certainly teach the young new hires a lot. Average age on international at a major US carrier is probably 50!
