Nurse or Flight Attendant

Published

I'm in college (UK) at the moment studying Health and Social Care. My first plan was to finish college then go to uni and do a nursing degree. However, I also would love to be a flight attendant. Do you think I should just stick to my first plan - I could still become a flight attendant with my nursing degree right? My plan is to finish uni and while I am still young, become a flight attendant and if I get tired of it or aging, change careers and become a nurse.. Would it work?

Welcome to the site

Who knows if it will work however we have many members here who have either changed into a nursing career or moved from a nursing career to something else

Finish your nursing degree first. Then apply as an FA. Most Filipino nurses are into this kind of scheme. By the way, Airline companies love nurses turned FA since they know how to save life. =)

Sorry - I know that OP is sincerely looking for advice here, but I can't rid myself of the connection to "Barbie" . I distinctly remember the various Barbie doll career choices that prompted my daughter to launch unending campaigns to justify purchasing more outfits & many, many accessories for her dolls. Nursing and Flight Attendant were always among the top choices in the Barbie doll aisle... along with pilot, lawyer, beautician, physician, etc. . .
