Answer 2

True, if you want to travel you should become a pilot or flight attendant.

For info on airline pilot careers in the USA, see- http://www.jetcareers.com

You DO NOT need an aviation degree to become a pilot, so do not pay attention to kanika_151s comment on education. Airlines accept a degree in any subject. In fact, it is often good to get a degree in a non-aviation subject in case you are ever furloughed or lose your medical.

Entry level jobs can also be had working for the airlines at you local airport, then you can transfer to flight attendant. Pilots require some substantial training but you can also do that while you work for the airline in a ground based position. (That is what I did.)

Answer 3

Well the only jobs that involve travelling with airlines is pilots and flight attendants.

For a pilots licence in Canada there are a couple of colleges that offer programs... off the top of my head Seneca College in Toronto and one in Sault Ste. Marie. They are highly, highly competitive and difficult but... if you can handle the workload, it's good because they pay for your flight hours.

You could also get your licence privately at a local airport.

Either way, I believe you need something like 2000 flight hours to apply to a major airline as a pilot.

For a flight attendant you don't necessarily need any schooling. You just need to have what they are looking for (good hygiene, good personality, etc.)

Good luck!
