Before the start of the training, applicants must undergo screening for an initial medical examination (EASA Class 1 medical) at an accredited aero-medical centre. Regulations require good basic health.

You can take these tests at an EASA-recognised aero-medical centre. We recommend ‘Brussels Aviation Medical Center’ (BAM) that is located in our headquarters in Diegem. After a successful selection process, our Cabin Office Management will explain you how to make an appointment at BAM, and how to undergo the required psychoactive substances test at BAR-T (Brussels Airport).

You have to wait one year before you can apply again.

The training program consists of 37 training days, spread across weekends and school holidays, excluding exam periods. The first session is expected to start at the end of January 2025 (exact dates to be confirmed).

For example, the course may run from late January 2025 to late April 2025, covering weekends and two holiday periods. This schedule enables you to complete the training while maintaining focus on your studies.

The training is free of charge, costs are covered by Brussels Airlines.

If you do not pass an exam, there is an opportunity for a retake according to the procedure.

In case you would not successfully complete the training, you will unfortunately not be able to start working as a Cabin Crew student.

Although candidates must be fluent in Dutch and French, all training material is in English. The training will also be mainly given in English.

The cost of the training is covered by Brussels Airlines. Your contract only starts after you successfully completed the training, so you will not receive a salary yet during the training.

After successful completion of the training, you will receive a student contract at Brussels Airlines (no interim). You must be available for at least 1 full month, or preferably up to 4 full months, between June and September 2025.

On top of the basic gross monthly salary for starting Cabin Crew members, you will be entitled to extra advantages, such as a premium for staying abroad at night, meal vouchers, etc. On average, you can expect your gross salary per month to land anywhere between EUR 2,500 and EUR 3,000 during high season, depending on the assignments you will receive.

In the world of aviation, every week is different and this is even more the case for our operational and flying staff. Hence, you will never have a “typical week” and your schedule will not be a classic 9-to-5. Depending on the flights that are assigned to you, you may have schedules that vary strongly from week to week and from day to day. For illustration purpose, you will find hereunder an example of a week planning, as operated in reality.
