Moving to USA
Hi
I currently live in the uk and want to move to the USA (New York actually) in hope to find a job as a flight attended for a us airline. Before even doing ANY of that how do I go about the process of wanting to move to the us? Maybe get a job in the city first? Is there somewhere that hires people from
the uk and helps fly them over ect? I also know visas ect are needed yes. If anyone had any advice tips would be appreciated

Re: Moving to USA
You would need a work visa, that has to be sponsored by the employer first, which would be fairly impossible to get for such a job

Never heard of a flight attendant getting a work visa. If you work for say a UK airline then you can get a visa if you fly into the US.

Some US airlines have at times have/had UK based FA’s, do you speak foreign languages? That’s seems to be a skill they like.

You'll have to apply to airlines and hope they sponsor you for a work visa.

Re: Moving to USA
Even if you were also to overcome the fairly large obstacle of a visa - where you will live is totally dependent on what airport you are based at, and this is largely dependent on where your airlines hubs are.
