F/A Salaries — Corporate Style
Corporate flight attendants are paid at higher rates than their airliner peers and for good reason: they are expected to invest in themselves through training and to provide a level of service well beyond what the airlines give to their passengers. Tasked with ordering catering, selecting wines, and maintaining a high end meal service, much of the work that a corporate flight attendant does goes well beyond cabin duty.
Recently, a thread on our forums was resurrected and updated to discuss current salary information. Several people have chimed in, myself included, determining that there are many unanswered questions about this topic.
Back in 2003 I wrote an article titled, What Kind of Pay Can I Expect?, to help address this issue. I made some minor updates to the article over the ensuing years, but it doesn’t address some of the core issues within the thread including regional differences.
I plan on updating the article some time over the next several months and will include my findings within a new thread on our forums. Likely, it will reflect an increase but I cannot tell you how close to the mark that it will be, but please stay tuned.
