You get room & board while training-just no salary. And for the fifty year old-GO FOR IT! I started with American at age 42.
Unpaid? Where we need to stay during training? At bus stop? I like
IT’s an unpaid Training but this isn’t gonna stop me from trying to be able to work in the airline industries. Hoping and Praying for everyone whom are applying
I was initially hired by Piedmont Airlines in 1989, which became US Airways and now American Airlines. Initial training has always been unpaid.
That’s the right attitude. Always be positive and remember to smile. It’s never too late to pursue your dreams. Good luck and happy birthday!
