They Don't Really Get to Travel the World Like People Think

When most people think of becoming a flight attendant or imagine what their work is like, they think of free spirits who are traveling the world. And although that may be exactly what they are doing, it's not just fun and games all the time. More frequently than not, their layovers are 10-14 hours, which means that's all the time they have to get to a hotel, shower, sleep and get back to the airport for the next flight.

Unfortunately, that leaves no time for exploring the destination they land in. However, they get flight benefits during the 1-2 weeks they have off a month, so plenty of traveling then.
