Do you really think that someone who is essentially a server with some safety training should be paid higher than what they are paid, currently? If so, how much?
Flight attendants are typically gap-type jobs for younger men and women who like to travel, and are currently working towards something else. I get that seniority and experience matter, but there has to be a reasonably low ceiling for these kinds of skills.

Tell us what you do for a living and how much you earn so that we can tell you how much less you deserve too.
What you got a degree and think that makes you special? You are aware that most people can get a degree if they have the time and financial resources right? In many cases a degree isn’t actually necessary to do a job that someone with a degree has.
According to some posters in this thread the way you increase your earnings is by getting promoted or looking for other work so I’m not sure why you think arguing that flight attendants are “gap-type jobs” is relevant if that’s technically what any job is. Especially since you provided no data to support your claim or to support why we shouldn’t want a massive corporation that operates globally to provide a little better than gap type jobs to a large chunk of the workforce.
