A Day in the Life of a Flight Attendant & Crew Resource Management (CRM)
Focuses on a typical flight attendant’s daily routine, from reporting to debriefing, including insights on scheduling, commuting, and life on reserve. You’ll also learn about Crew Resource Management, which emphasizes teamwork, communication, and situational awareness, with scenario-based exercises designed to practice coordination and problem-solving in a cabin environment.

Safety Awareness

Professionalism, Customer Excellence & Meal Service Simulation
Emphasizes customer service principles, passenger psychology, and conflict resolution, alongside professional presence, grooming, and etiquette. You’ll also participate in a mock meal service simulation, practicing serving trays and beverages to role-playing passengers, while honing your time management and service efficiency skills.

Communication, Confidence & Poise
The final day of the core curriculum focuses on communication skills, including public speaking and cabin announcements.
You’ll practice stress management techniques, resilience, and confidence-building exercises, preparing you for the upcoming coaching and interview-focused portion of the program.

Your Investment & Why Inflight Foundations is the Right Choice

The Inflight Foundations program is a professional investment in your future as a flight attendant. At $3,000, you’ll take part in a full 7-day immersive experience that combines industry knowledge, hands-on practice, and career coaching. This isn’t just a class, it’s a complete preparation program designed to reduce uncertainty, build confidence, and equip you with the skills and mindset needed to step into airline interviews and training with poise.

Airline flight attendant training is FAA-based, fast-paced, and highly structured, and for many candidates, the challenge is not only the pressure of the environment, but also the volume, complexity, and seriousness of the material itself, combined with the pace and expectations of training. Inflight Foundations is intentionally designed as high-quality preparation for airline training, helping you understand expectations ahead of time so there are no surprises. Our goal is to make future airline training feel familiar, structured, and manageable before you ever walk into it.

At its core, this program is about preparing future safety professionals. While the flight attendant role includes customer service and lifestyle considerations, the responsibility of the job is rooted in safety, awareness, and decision-making. Inflight Foundations helps you build the foundational knowledge, mindset, and confidence required to succeed in FAA-based airline training and carry that responsibility with professionalism.

While Inflight Foundations is not a pass/fail program, it mirrors the structure of airline learning. Throughout the program, you’ll complete quizzes, knowledge checks, and exams—not to create stress, but to identify learning gaps early and strengthen your understanding in a supportive setting. This approach helps you develop strong study habits, improve retention, and build confidence in your ability to succeed in an FAA-based airline training environment.

We know that starting a career in aviation can feel overwhelming. From understanding airline operations to learning how to present yourself professionally, there’s a lot to absorb—and that’s exactly why this program exists. Over seven days, you’ll explore the airline industry, safety awareness, customer service, professionalism, and interview readiness in a structured, encouraging environment. By the end of the program, you won’t just feel ready—you’ll know you are ready.
