Career path

Sr. Cabin Crew Member/LFS

TUI Group

From 01/2009 to 06/2025

Company

What do you like about your job and the company?

Every day is different: one day I have an early standby: they call me and I don’t know immediately where I will fly to, sometimes I have an early flight, sometimes I have a night flight. Everyday I meet new people: crew and passengers change every day. I love to speak different languages which I do on a daily basis in the aircraft: Dutch, French, English and Spanish is used mostly on board. For our candidates in Belgium we expect French or Dutch and English to be known fluently.

Greatest achievements

On several occasions I had passengers ready to turn around and go back to the terminal building. I take my time to talk to them, to reassure them, try to convince them, but not to force them to come with me. Up to now they all joined me & my crew to their holiday destination.

I have never experienced a colleague saying "no", when I reached out for help, because I didn't understand or know something or had difficulties managing my work. We are all one big team, and everyone keeps looking out for each other, which is something I really missed at my last workplace. Also I feel comfortable really showing myself the way I am. I do not have to act up a persona, to fit the company, but can really be myself, as well as the colleagues can be themselves. Don't put up an act and present yourselves the way you are. You won't regret showing your true colors.

Teams are made of people, not systems. I think this is self explanatory.

Top Insider Advice

In today's fast-evolving business landscape, adaptability and a proactive approach to embracing change are key. Throughout my career at TUI, I've learned that innovation isn't just about using new technologies, but also about continuously challenging and reinventing our processes and strategies to enhance operational efficiency and customer satisfaction. My advice to aspiring professionals is to remain curious and open to learning. The most impactful changes often come from cross-disciplinary insights and the willingness to step out of comfort zones. Whether you are starting your career or looking to pivot into a new sector, embrace the opportunities that change brings. It's crucial to foster an environment where questioning the status quo is encouraged, and where innovative thinking is not just welcomed, but required. Additionally, always strive to connect your individual role to the larger goals of your organization. Understanding how your daily tasks contribute to the broader mission not only enhances your work's impact but also aligns your personal growth with the company’s success. This mindset has not only guided me within TUI but has also allowed me to significantly contribute to our mission of creating unforgettable travel experiences. By adopting a mindset focused on innovation and adaptability, you can make a notable difference in your career and help shape the future of your industry. Choosing TUI means embracing a path where technology, innovation, and motivation are the cornerstones of not only career success but also personal fulfillment and joy ;)
