Corporate Flight Attendants (1215 words) |
 | Flight attendants, formerly called sky girls, air hostesses, stewardesses and stewards hold the primary responsibility for the safety and comfort of airline passengers. |
 | The first flight attendant was a 25 year old registered nurse named Ellen Church, who coined the term "stewardess." Hired by United Airlines in 1930, she also first envisioned nurses on airplanes. |
 | The primary responsibility of the flight attendant's job is the safety of the passengers, but most of the work is customer service, serving meals and drinks and accommodating the individual needs of passengers. |
