What You Need to Know:

Delta is seeking both English-Speaking and Bilingual Flight Attendants to join the In-Flight Services team. When completing the application, Bilingual applicants will have the option to apply as a Bilingual Flight Attendant, also known as Language of Destination (LOD). You must be fluent in English and another language to be eligible for the Bilingual Flight Attendant opportunity.

Since our flights operate day and night and all year-round, Flight Attendants must be flexible with their hours. Work days include early morning, nights, overnights, weekends, holidays, and extended hours when needed.

New hires must successfully complete seven consecutive weeks of training located at our World Headquarters in Atlanta, GA. During this time, participants receive a training wage and some meals, as well as lodging for those who do not live within 25 miles of the training facility.

Once training is complete, Flight Attendants will report to their assigned base to join their 28000+ colleagues in In-Flight Service. We operate out of 14 bases across the United States including Atlanta, Boston, Cincinnati, Detroit, Fort Lauderdale/Miami, Honolulu, Los Angeles, Orlando, Minneapolis, New York, Portland, Seattle, San Francisco, and Salt Lake City. Base options may vary based on operational need and differ for Bilingual, or LOD, Flight Attendants.
