Craig...that sounds very similar to how I got started with Continental Airlines.  lol

I started out working as a cleaner with a contracted aircraft cleaning company.

Did that for a year and a half before accepting a position as an agent with Continental Express.  I worked the ramp, baggage, ticket counter, and gate for exactly 265 days.

Then I applied, got accepted to, and graduated from the Continental Airlines Inflight Training Academy and worked as a Domestic Flight Attendant for about a year.  Then I stupidly got out of the industry altogether.  (Though I was happy about that on 9/11!)

Airline jobs are difficult to come by, so hold on to it if you get one.  You'll be glad you did!

Good luck, and let me know if you hear anything!

My original plan was to work my way up while working on my license, then when I'm qualified, I was going to apply to fly with them.

But I soon learned that commuting from Maine to New Jersey to work was harder than it sounds, and I just couldn't do it anymore...I was getting burned out. 

Sometimes I wonder if I should have left...lol
