hi,

I was a qualafied nurse in adults and paediatrics, all the airlines love that, Im now also an airline medical and resuscitation trainer.

hiya

i to was a nurse. dealing with so many emergencies i guess they think us nurses can cope in many situations. i have since left my position as a flight attendant with a small regional airline, which i was employeed with for 4 years, and have again returned to nursing, due to a move to the country. within that 4 years i did have some emergencies, the worst, a female pax suffering a suspected heart attack, thank goodness we were on approach into SYD when it happened......!!! i believe my medical back ground assisted me greatly in this situation..

I worked in reatail fro 6/7 years, most of which at management level. It definately helped me, but I'll admit it's tough at first to apply the skills I developed in those years :D

I had no experience ... I applied straight from Uni when I was 21, thought I would do it for a year before I got down to a career ....10 years later, I am still flying ! And still lovin it :}

became a travel agent with Thomas Cook, then a couple of independants, for promotion.

Then I was an Hotel Manager (Devon country inn)

Then flew as cc for 8 years with 5 different airlines living in The Gulf (Bahrain), Italy, France and London

Then on the ground as Customer Service Manager

Now... back to flying

11 years in aviation, 18 years in travel & hospitality
