Pros
The benefits provided are very good. Travel has and will improve once again on June 1st to free travel in first, business and coach classes system wide and world wise(just have to pay the taxes). even though medical has gone up, AA has a very good medical for flight attendants.You will work with great people and will meet great customers.
Cons
First year as a flight attendant can be very hard. you'll be on reserve, when bidding for your schedules, most likely you'll hold crappy trips as trips are awarded by seniority, low salary, adjusting to a new way of life...IE: sleeping patterns, having to share an apartment with other fellow crew members in order to make it with your initial salary, but don't give up because it gets better and better as the years go by.
