Stewardess is considered obsolete and a negatively loaded term, tied to sexist practices of the past, so it is generally avoided in the US. I have never heard the term Steward for a male FA in the US.
I see the country differences though...I would guess that all official aviation businesses have moved away from the older term, even in the UK?
