How to become an air hostess: the questions students ask

Pass 12^th in any stream, train on a cabin crew course, then apply when airlines recruit. Airlines hold their own tests, interviews and medical checks, and they decide who to hire. Our nine-month course prepares you for that selection.

Any stream. Science or commerce is not required.

Our course asks for a 12^th pass and does not set a percentage. Some airlines state a minimum in their recruitment notice, so read the notice before you apply.

We take students aged 18 to 28 on our cabin crew course. Airlines set their own age limits and they differ.

It depends on the airline and the role, and some airlines test reach rather than height. Our eligibility guide explains the standards, and the admissions team confirms the current entry threshold.

Yes, with the same 12^th pass and age range. Height and reach requirements vary by airline and role.

No. Cabin crew training needs a 12^th pass. If you are appearing for 12^th this year, you can start counselling now and enrol once your result is out.

Airlines usually ask that no tattoo shows when you are in uniform. Appearance standards are set by each airline, so ask us at counselling if you are unsure.

Nine months, full time, six days a week.

Cabin safety awareness, passenger service, emergency procedures, communication and professional presentation. Practical sessions use the cabin mock-up and the door trainer at our Khalapur centre.

Yes. English is assessed at every airline interview, so we teach it as a full subject. In the first meeting we tell you honestly how far you are from the standard, and how long it takes.

Yes. Airlines give the crew they hire their own training before the first flight. A course before that prepares you for selection: English, grooming, service skills and interview practice. It does not replace the airline's training.

You can ask us about further interview preparation, future recruitment and other courses that fit, such as airport ground staff.

₹35,000 to ₹45,000 a month, plus flying allowance, is the range published by IESP. The figures shown are indicative entry-level salaries, not guaranteed earnings.

No. Completing the course gives you training. Airlines make their own selection decisions.

Ground roles hire in far larger numbers and take less time to train for. Cabin crew has the hardest entry standards, set by the airline, including height. We will tell you honestly which one fits you at the first meeting.
