What are your expectations in this profession?

Anastasia

First of all, this is my favorite job I dreamed of since childhood! The sky, the aircraft and the people who make airplanes fly around me always, so I always knew that my work will be related to flying.

Why exactly S7Because there are Transaero и aeroflot?

Anastasia

Before moving to Moscow, I was living in St. Petersburg, studied at the university in 3 course, because we have the airline make a set of very rare, I decided that we should try for a job in the airline, which is located in Moscow and the first airline that came to me is the head was just S7, recalled the creative light green planes. After I studied the airline in more detail, I liked it all: a form of flight attendants, the geography of flights, the new fleet ... Posovetovshis with my chief assistant in such cases Dad, I've decided that I want to work in S7.

Anastasia

Also, I once heard a song on the radio "Tolmachevo Airport" ,I liked her very much! A few days later I learned that my airline is based in Novosibirsk airport "Tolmachevo" and I believe in signs.

It's quite an impulsive choice. Where were you trained?

What do you like most about teaching?

Anastasia

I can not highlight something from everything covered, but most of all I got emotional on the subject of the rescue equipment! We extinguished the fire, were evacuated from the cockpit through a window on a rope, we are taught the correct actions during the emergency landing on land and water, "playing" in the cabin crew, we were given different situations and we were doing all that would do in real life. In these lessons, I felt like a real flight attendant and learned so much! I also remember the sleepless night before the exam. Passed successfully!

Who minds teach English, I really like these lessons, because I love this language. Very interesting activities! I believe that every flight attendant should know it, we are the face of the company, communicate with different people of different nationalities!

It is like the training center as a whole! On its territory there is a large swimming pool, gym, dining room, a lot of educational buildings, sports ground, a hotel complex and a lot more! Very kind and helpful staff, very professional teachers! All friendly, smiling, professionals in their field! And the atmosphere in the center of a very good and friendly!

How was VLEK? What was the most memorable to you?

Anastasia

Oh, this is the most terrible and beautiful thing in my life! They say that the first VLEK is the most difficult, and I was convinced of this! I went to Vnukovo, I was very worried, I was probably more afraid than interviews, although everything is fine with health: vision is 100%, flat feet are not. Passed in three days, but these days were very busy! I thought that they would never end ... When I was already sitting in the office of the chairman of VLEK, and she wrote out this little blue "piece of paper" for me, I just burst into tears with joy that I was fit, there was a permit, and I passed it!

How did your parents relate to what you're going to fly? It is the work of "high-risk"?

Anastasia

One of the favorite questions often asked, and also all surprised by the answer. My dad is a test pilot, so all reacted to the choice of my profession is very positive, although the phrase "now the experience of two" I still had to hear. But for me the most important thing is that my dad is very proud, and he was very happy that I am, no matter what, has achieved its goal and continued the dynasty of "high risk". And on the road more often and more broken! A very reliable transport aircraft in the hands of an experienced pilot!

Tell us how you solve the housing problem? After all, you will have more time to be away from home.

Anastasia

I rent an apartment in Domodedovo, I really like this city: quiet, calm, airplanes fly, under them I fall asleep and wake up. The city has everything: shopping centers, a lot of supermarkets, the "Yelochka" park, not far from my house is the stadium and, of course, next to my house - the airport. A good apartment is very difficult to find, this was for me the next test after the VLEK! It all began with the fact that at 9 in the morning I flew to Domodedovo in search of an apartment, phoned in advance with a realtor, the meeting was scheduled for 10 in the morning in the city of Domodedovo, upon arrival I called him, but no one took the phone. Be wary of agencies! I called another realtor, I made an appointment for 18.00, before that time I had time to settle in the hotel. In the evening I was shown a couple of apartments, but I did not see anything good in them. The next day I was offered two more options, but it was all the same. As a result, I found my apartment in the group of social network "Vkontakte.ru" "Stewardesses and stewards," not through the agency.

The work involves constant flights, how do you plan to develop a personal relationship?

Anastasia

I believe that such a profession needs a person who will understand and appreciate that his beloved girl loves her job, has achieved her goal, also it seems to me that in "constant flights" there is some plus, they say that love is stronger at a distance, you can Have time and miss. On the one hand, on the other hand, on the other hand, I believe that with this profession one needs a person who will work in the same sphere, there will be common interests, there will be something to discuss, you can often see during working hours, fly together, yes And it's just perfect when a man is a pilot, and his maiden shka (wife) stewardess. As for me, at the moment I want to build a career. "First of all planes, well, boys later."

Anastasia

I would also like to add that the marriage between the hostess and flight attendant or pilot and stewardess, a pledge of respect, understanding, reliability and simple beauty, for both people working in one area! The pilot is the courage and strength, and the stewardess is tenderness, beauty and understanding, so they complement each other.

In the photo you cook real chair? As S7 approach to this issue?

Anastasia

Yes, this is a real chair, as in the plane, a training center teaches everything that we should and must know and what we can be useful in a real situation, as the safety of passengers and the entire interior is in our hands.

By any case the oxygen masks fall? Who leads the process?

Anastasia

The question on the exam. Oxygen masks fall during depressurization of the cabin, where the pressure drops sharply, nothing wrong with that, the masks fall automatically passengers it remains just pull it over, first to provide a mask himself, and then had his child, if the flight is done with it. Further pilots will begin to fall, the plane to land at the nearest airport and is already on the ground is to scan and repair the aircraft.

Many famous women in the past, flight attendants found their choices among the passengers of your flight? What do you think of it?

Anastasia

I am very pleased for my colleagues, so they smiled fate. It seems to me that a female flight attendant - is the dream of many men, because this work suggests that the woman was well-groomed, beautiful, slim, so the probability of finding the elect among the passengers is very high.

Last question: Imagine a situation in the first class after the shooting in Russia flies Leonardo DiCaprio. He asks to give him food before anyone else. Hearing is another first-class passenger said he was no worse and asks him to serve food first. What do you do?

Anastasia

For all passengers rules are the same, so I will serve each in turn if DiCaprio sits in front, he and I were very lucky because the food will get it before anyone else, and I will be pleased that the customer is satisfied, all the more so.

What do you wish those who only wants to go to study in the profession?

Anastasia

Let everyone at first think many times: “Do I need this?”, Because the work is not easy: flights, loads, stress. But if you have firmly decided to link your destiny with the sky, then do your best to achieve your goal, try and do everything to make your dream a reality, because "The most beautiful work is connected with the desire to fly", as Vadim Zakharov's song says. Aviation is the best thing that man has invented!
