In Nigeria, there are training institutions for aviation workers that train people for professional careers in the aviation industry. One such training institution is the Nigerian College of Aviation Technology, NCAT, Zaria.

There are also schools in Nigeria that train flight attendants where one can acquire the needed knowledge. Some of them include the Universal School of Aviation and Crew Training Institute.

But apart from standardised training which one has to get, a Nigerian lady, Tammy Tobi, who is a flight attendant, took to her TikTok handle to share tips on what it takes to be a flight attendant from what she knows where she works. Here are a few of the basic requirements she listed.

1. You must be 18 years and above

One of the requirements listed by Tammy is that to become a flight attendant, you must be 18 years and above.

In some countries, the age requirement is 21 years and above, but in Nigeria, you have to be 18.

2. You can apply with WAEC or NECO

Tammy revealed that one could actually be able to become a flight attendant with just WAEC and NECO. The person must, of course, go through the required training.

3. One must be patient and respectful

According to Tammy, anyone who wishes to become a flight attendant must be someone who is patient.

The person must also know how to respect other people.

This is because flight attendants encounter different types of people who they are expected to treat with respect.
