flight attendant bootcamp:
Hi there folks,
I'm heading out friday to minneapolis for 3 weeks of flight attendant training. I was wondering if anyone can give me some advice, things the pretraining manual doesn't touch on - thigs to bring, to do, etc. any advice will be greatly appreciated, especially advice on attire for training...
any of you have any ideas about what i can do in minn. on my days off? i've already looked into a twins game, and lucky me they're playing my hometome boys the red sox! And I'm not all that interested in the giant mall.
anyway, thanks alot.

And keep in mind its only for 3 weeks, and there's a lot of material to cover...so study hard and want it...there's plenty of time after graduation to go out with your classmates/co-workers...don't waste your time at the bars and potentially throw it all away...remember you don't have a job until you pass the final.
Most of all, have fun doing it, training was one of the best experiences I've ever had :)

good luck!
bring index cards, highlighters, notebooks, and whatever else helps you study because you are in for a three week cram session.remember that 90% of what we learn is SAFETY related and 90% of what we do is customer service related.
if you can get ahold of the plane diagrams early and start studying them, you'll be ahead of the game. Ditto all the airport codes. Get the airport codes off the company's website and start memorizing them. That's usually a first week quiz.
Another thing to do is watch your fellow recruits and really listen to the questions they ask in the first day, then you'll know who you should study with and who to avoid.
Good luck! It's the best job ever!
