Flight Attendant Course

Three year 12 students attended a two-day flight attendant course in Christchurch, run by the International Travel College in June.

My experience at the two-day flight attendant course was both exciting and informative. I learned essential skills such as customer service, safety protocols, and emergency procedures, which are vital in the aviation industry. The hands-on training was both fun and practical. I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in aviation.

During this flight attendant course we learnt many things. We did fun activities like a safety demonstration and many kahoots on basic geographical knowledge and one to test our overall knowledge on what we learnt. This course helped open my eyes to more than just the flying and attending to passengers but what goes on behind closed doors. I would highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to choose flight attendant as a future career.
