No, it is not a good "career". If you want to spend time seeing different parts of the world, maybe ... but look into it first, for often all you are seeing is the inside of airports and hotels. How long are the "layovers"?
As for "career", that implies a stable job with promotion path of two or three spots. What can you do after being a flight attendant? Be a senior flight attendant? Be a ticketing agent at luggage checkin? The airline is a very flat industry. It has very few promotion paths. Also, it is VERY unstable. The US air industry - the airlines and the airports - is in horrible shape now. As a "career", there are many better things for you to do.

that's no longer completely genuine. some airlines require flight attendants to have a minimum of an buddies degree. Others strongly like it. it somewhat is truthfully the case that it will provide you an side contained in the recruitment technique. airlines additionally choose, and each from time to time require, which you have client help experience. earlier you give up college, you will have the desire to make particular you have already been employed by utilising an airline. So do no longer drop out basically yet. fairly, shop going to college, yet start up pursuing the flight attendant profession besides. in case you get employed, then leave college. yet be conscious of that having an buddies might help in that profession.

It would be a way to see the world and experience all different ways of life. It also would be hard work dealing with people. Good luck whatever you choose.

If it fits your interests, skills and abilities, yes. If not, no. You will generally stick the longest with a job you enjoy and put up with inadequacies in certain areas if you enjoy your work.
