Hi 22F here

I haven't done any kind of graduation

I took 4 years of drop for a medical exam

But i always knew it wasn't for me

But my father is heart broken every time i try to change my path but ig im finally done

I have great ppl skills and i love traveling and studying humans

I love to be around ppl

I'm targeting gulf airlines (the trio)

I plan on doing an online distant learning graduation (BBA/psychology- if u have any better suggestions pls do suggest)

I am trying to get jobs as a fresher in customer service rn

Doing some certifications

My issue is every one is unsatisfied by my choice

They think this job isn't good for me bcz I'm good at studying

But I'm a very creative person and i wanna make a name in the creative field

I was confident in myself but after my dad's severe rxn and so many questions im really scared if I'm doing the wrong thing

Idk what I'll do I have a plan for my future but what if nothing works out

Any tips for preparations r welcome

My English is c2 lvl

And i plan to learn conversational french by the time i apply

I'm doing certifications in food and beverage

Psychological first aid

And first aid

And hotel and customer management

They r really small cources not year long degree type

My ht is 157-159cm

Reach 212cm more or less(working on it)

Weak physical tho

Pls any advice is welcome I feel very clueless and naive leaving the student bubble

Thankyou

For context i’m 18 (so please keep in mind i don’t have any airline options except the one im at and the one im going to apply too). I work for mesa and am thinking of applying to envoy, I have customer service experience prior to this but I wonder if me working for an airline currently will make me less or more appealing?

Can a 162cm tall female become an airhostess in India?

I've noticed that many people think being cabin crew is mostly about traveling and taking photos in different cities.

From my experience, the job requires a lot more—customer service, handling difficult situations, teamwork, safety procedures, and staying calm under pressure.

For those working in aviation, what's the biggest misconception you hear all the time?

I gave my Akasa Air cabin crew interview in indore it was invite only

There were 90 candidates only

14 of us made into third round which was personal round

After clearing GD and BMI

Now in third round the told 11 candidates including me to leave for the day and we will update by mail

And she took 4 th round of remaining 3 candidates

It means am I rejected???

Also she ask me would you rather choose to work as a ground staff or wait the mail I said I will wait for the cabin crew mail.

The personal interview was for around 6 min

And I showed my research about the airline in answer

Dear all

​

I will be flying with swiss in August and September from Switzerland to Thailand and back. I usually fly Thai and always bring the crew some swiss chocolates as a gift. Now that im flying with Swiss, i thought bringing swiss chocolate would be kinda pointless, as they serve it on the plane and they probably have a enough of that 😅

​

I was thinking of maybe bringing the crew facemasks, with a little note saying "thank you for taking care of us, here something small to take care of yourself ".

​

Would that be nice, or totally inappropriate?

Maybe a better idea?

​

Thank you and have a lovely day

My mum’s luggage was lost by Scoot in December 2025, and we’re desperate for help.
The journey was Melbourne → Singapore → Japan, and the luggage never arrived. We’ve contacted Scoot multiple times, but so far we haven’t been able to get any meaningful assistance.
The suitcase contained many irreplaceable sentimental items. I had just graduated from university and packed my graduation photos, graduation certificate holder, graduation tube, and other memories to send home for my family to keep. These items mean far more to us than their monetary value.
If anyone here works for Scoot or knows someone who does, or has any advice on how to escalate a lost luggage case, we would be incredibly grateful for your help.
Thank you.
