Selection steps stated

The general cabin crew page only details the English test; height, swimming and right to work are taken from the adverts per base (Dublin, Malta, Frankfurt-Hahn, Stansted, Lauda Vienna), with no advert for a French base listed as of October 2026, and age is not mentioned anywhere.
Tips for applying
Very many bases, frequent recruitment. Fluent English required (training and everyday life), high frequency of short flights.

Prepare for this selection
Read the posting in full before applying: the conditions (minimum age, languages, right to work in the base's country, CCA or equivalent training) are set by the airline and vary from one to another.
The CCA is required to work as cabin crew. Depending on the airline, it is required before applying or issued at the end of the airline's own initial training: the posting says which.
Selection usually has several steps (online application, tests or interview, sometimes a group assessment day). Prepare an up-to-date CV in English, a precise reason for choosing this airline, and practise spoken English and situational exercises.
