Being a Stewardess | 2 years of flying

20/01/2020 | 3 Reacties

Hi everyone! This is a special post that I have dedicated to my dream job – Stewardess. I have now been flying for about 2 years and I already have a permanent contract. Because I love my work, I have added some of my favorite photos from the past (3) flying seasons in this post.

November 2017 I was told on the selection day that I was hired and was allowed to participate in the Initial (with Eindhoven Airport as base). The real flying adventure started in April 2018, where I could start after a fun, but especially busy month ‘Initial’ (The compulsory training that every new Cabin Attendant goes through and has to pass before you can start working as a Steward / Stewardess) with flights from Eindhoven (80%) and Amsterdam as second base (20%).

So far I have experienced a lot of fun, but also exciting, hilarious and special flights and I have seen a lot of beautiful arrival destinations. My very first was Funchal – Madeira during my initial, and the first of my second season was beautiful Innsbruck.

Hi allemaal! Dit is een speciale post die ik heb toegewijd aan mijn droombaan – Stewardess. Inmiddels vlieg ik al zo´n 2 jaar en heb ik al een vast contract. Omdat ik gek ben op mijn werk, heb ik een aantal van mijn favoriete foto´s van de afgelopen (3) vliegseizoenen in deze post geplaatst.

November 2017 kreeg ik op de selectiedag te horen dat ik was aangenomen en deel mocht gaan nemen aan de Initial (met als standplaats Eindhoven Airport). Het echte vliegavontuur begon april 2018, waar ik ná een leuke, maar vooral spannende maand ´Initial´ (De verplichte training die iedere nieuwe Cabin Attendant door gaat en moet halen, voor je aan de slag mag gaan als Steward/Stewardess), kon beginnen met vliegen vanaf Eindhoven (80%) en als 2e standplaats Amsterdam (20%).

Ik heb tot zo ver een hele hoop leuke, maar ook spannende, hilarische en bijzondere vluchten meegemaakt en heb een hele hoop mooie aanvlieg bestemmingen mogen zien. Mijn allereerste was Funchal – Madeira tijdens mijn initial, en de eerste van mijn tweede seizoen was het prachtige Innsbruck.

First year – 2018 Second year – 2019

I also regularly hear nice, but also special stories from passengers, what makes the job very special. The irregular times and days also make the work very enjoyable for me. Every flight is different! In these 2 years I have already made a lot of colleague friend (s), with whom I also do fun things during my time off and have had cool (work) parties and trips with. I personally also enjoy flying with so many different passengers and colleagues and having a different team every day.
Ook hoor ik regelmatig leuke, maar ook bijzondere verhalen van passagiers, wat het werk ook heel bijzonder maakt. De onregelmatige tijdstippen en dagen maken het werk voor mij ook heel erg leuk. Iedere vlucht is weer anders! Ik heb in deze 2 jaar ook al een hoop collega vriend(inn)en mogen maken, waar ik in mijn vrije tijd ook leuke dingen mee doe en gave (werk) feestjes en reisjes mee heb gehad. Ik vind het persoonlijk ook heel erg leuk om met zoveel verschillende passagiers en collega’s te vliegen en elke dag een ander samengesteld team te hebben.

Third year: 2020
Of course layovers and “Standby travel” (Flying with a special discount if space available for crew) is also super cool. I had my first work “layover” in Groningen last September, and will go to Dubai for 3 days at the end of this month! With my IPB rights I have already visited a lot: Palma de Mallorca, Seville, Athens, Lisbon, Valencia, Pisa / Florence, and even Tokyo.
Natuurlijk zijn stopjes en ‘IPB-en’ (Vliegen met een speciale korting indien plaats beschikbaar voor crew) ook super tof. Ik heb September vorig jaar mijn eerste werk ‘stopje’ gehad in Groningen, en mag aan het einde van deze maand naar Dubai voor 3 dagen! Met mijn IPB rechten heb ik al veel bezocht: Palma de Mallorca, Sevilla, Athene, Lissabon, Valencia, Pisa/Florence, en zelfs Tokyo.

(Read) Impactful beauty, the rising dragon & catwalk challenge 🧡 @misscosmointernational @miss_cosmo_netherlands 
Wearing our national color, I share a place close to my heart. Den Bosch, the city where I was born and raised. Although the world is my teacher and playground, I always come back home.

Impactful Beauty is more than an image — it is a legacy of resilience and authenticity.

For me, it means rising after years of violence and bullying and continuing even when I did not bring the crown home. True beauty is not measured in titles, but in the courage to stand tall when the world tried to break you.

At 29, in an industry that once said I was “too old,” I stand as proof that age does not limit impact. My story shows that authenticity shines brighter than perfection.

As a model and travel blogger, I have had the privilege to explore our world — to see cultures, learn from them, and connect people across borders. Travel is a privilege that taught me that every culture holds wisdom, and my mission is to bridge worlds — not just across skies, but between hearts.

Sustainability is also part of Impactful Beauty. I support handmade and collaborate with re-wear fashion, love vintage, and continue my long-term school project of teaching children about bullying and authenticity.

Because Impactful Beauty is not about winning a moment, but leaving a legacy that inspires.

From the sky, to the COSMO. My name, is Mandy Victoria.

(SWIPE - story time!) 🌷 H E R I T A G E and I M P A C T F U L L  B E A U T Y 🇳🇱 Wearing our beautiful national color - showing you a place of meaning to me. Den Bosch, the city I have been born and raised. Although the world is my teacher and playground, I always come back home. 

Impactful Beauty is more than an image — it is a legacy of resilience and authenticity.
For me, it means rising after years of bullying and violence, and continuing even when I did not bring the crown home. Every setback became part of my strength, teaching me that true beauty is not measured in titles, but in the courage to stand tall when the world tried to break you.

At 29, in an industry that once said I was “too old,” I choose to stand as proof that age does not limit impact. My story shows that resilience never expires, and that authenticity will always shine brighter than perfection.

As a model and travel blogger, I have had the privilege to explore our world closely — to see different cultures, to learn from them, and to connect people across borders. Those experiences gave me the deepest belief that beauty is not about division, but about building bridges. That is what Impactful Beauty means to me: using your voice and your presence to bring people together. I’m proud to be the first Dutch flight attendant and Miss. 

And I want to continue doing exactly that. Through my platform, my website, and my school lessons, I want to keep inspiring others — not with temporary projects, but in a sustainable way that endures. To teach, to share, and to empower. Because Impactful Beauty is not about winning a moment, but about leaving a lasting legacy.

3 day solo trip to Budapest 🇭🇺 (Dress ‘Tamsin’ by @divacatwalk) My favorite love: discovering the world. New cultures, new people, and those little moments that stay with you forever. Solo travel = freedom

Facts from my experience 🇭🇺

📍It’s a safe and clean city
📍It’s far from cheap!
📍Using a bicycle is the perfect way of transporation
📍The city is very big and seperated by two parts: ‘Buda’ and ‘Pest’ 
📍The currency is Florentine, not Euro 
📍Booking Wizz Air one way was cheaper than using my cabin crew benefits
📍There are countless cute brunch places here
