Hi Lexie! Are you looking to pursue a career as a flight attendant?
While you are welcome to attend a flight attendant school, it's not a must-have! You can still become a flight attendant without formal education.
Starting your journey with regional airlines like SkyWest could be a great move. They're not as competitive, making it an excellent place for your flight attendant career to take off.
Here's a handy link that shows you what SkyWest looks for in a flight attendant:

Once you check off those requirements, just fill out the application and get ready for the group interview.
I think they offer Q&A sessions before the group interview. It's a great chance to chat with flight attendants and learn more about this exciting career, even if you don't meet all the requirements just yet.

Hi Lexie, the only formal education required is a high school diploma. Though some flight attendants may have college degrees, it's not needed. In addition to a high school diploma, most airlines look for customer service experience. Just an extra note...I know of someone who worked for TSA & then decided to apply for a flight attendant position. They quickly got the flight attendant job. They told me that their TSA position gave them the combined customer service & airline security experience highly valued nowadays by airlines.
