In addition, flight attendants must adapt to different time zones and climates, frequently fly at high altitudes, and endure harsh environments such as lack of oxygen, low pressure, dryness, and noise. Flight attendants also have to endure long-term instability and airsickness, as well as hazards such as searchlight radiation and static electricity. Flight attendants’ biological clocks are often disrupted, and they are prone to symptoms such as insomnia, fatigue, and headaches.
Finally, flight attendants have to sacrifice their time and personal life, often traveling abroad for work, unable to travel with family and friends. Flight attendants also do not have a fixed time or place to rest, sometimes only being able to rest quickly at the airport or hotel. Flight attendants also do not have time to travel or enjoy local scenery and cuisine.
