Surely the fact that you have spent most of your travel in Y suggests that you are going to claim F is great on every occasion....unless you dont get there alive

Although if there is a job going for 19/20yr old students of this nature with little F experience then I'd be happy to apply http://www.flyertalk.com/travel/fttr...orum/smile.gif

I would like to be able to fly to different cities overseas and possibly being paid to do it. Even if I am not paid I would like to go FC free of charge helping the airline fix their products. I am 19. This way I can get good meals onboard and a private staff.

I'm not betting on this pony. Tell me this wasn't a put-on.

My wife came to me with a similar idea. She wanted to be the beta tester for the new American Express Gladitor Card.

She pictured herself shopping at Harvey Nicks from the early hours, then strolling down Sloane Street, dropping into this or that boutique. After a quick lunch at The Square, she was going to try the mighty new card down Old Bond Street, after which she was going to hop into a pre-arranged car to head out to LHR to test the 'premium travel products' offered by the card. After a first class flight to HKG, she was going to surprise the Peninsula (and Gladiator Card Services) with a rush check-in to a Royal Imperial Suite.

Naturally, she would have to pay nothing for the privilege and would write a comprehensive report for American Express, pointing out the various difficiencies of the card.

I told her that they probably wouldn't go for it!

The problem was that they never launched the card and that there is no Royal-Imperial Suite at the Pen in Hongkong. http://www.flyertalk.com/travel/fttravel_forum/wink.gif

I would suggest trying to get an internship at Rockwell Collins in their Pomona, CA, facility, or at MAS (Matsu****a Avionics Systems) in Lake Forest, CA (Orange County).
