Job description

Candidates must live within a 30-minute drive of the Milwaukee airport to be considered.

Freight Runners Express / Air Charter Express (FRE/ACE) is currently scheduling interviews for our Flight Attendant Talent Pool. This is not for a specific opening. Instead, we are scheduling phone interviews and in-person interviews with willing candidates. Qualified candidates will be placed in our Talent Pool and given first priority when a future class is scheduled.

Phone interviews will take place November 3rd through November 13th. In-person interviews will take place December 1st through December 15th.

Flying aboard our 30-passenger SAAB 2000, you’ll work in a fast-paced, ever-changing charter environment where no two days—or trips—look the same. One day might be a quick corporate hop, the next an all-day charter with multiple legs. If you thrive when plans shift and take pride in delivering both exceptional safety and genuine hospitality, you’ll fit right in.

What You’ll Do

Safety First—Always

You’ll lead all onboard safety responsibilities, from pre-flight checks to in-flight procedures. You’ll brief passengers, secure the cabin, and respond confidently in emergencies if they arise.

Elevated Customer Experience

You’ll create a welcoming, professional environment—serving food and beverages, assisting with luggage, and ensuring passengers feel comfortable, even during delays or turbulence.

Operational Agility

You’ll adapt to changing schedules, last-minute assignments, and extended duty days (typically 4–14 hours). Overnights and multi-day trips are a regular part of the role.

Hands-On Cabin Management

From stocking and organizing the aircraft to post-flight cleanup and inventory, you’ll ensure the cabin is always ready for the next mission.

Team & Independent Work

Some days you’ll collaborate closely with crew members; other times, you’ll be the sole cabin professional onboard—owning the experience from start to finish.

Total First-Year Earnings: ~$58,000

• Base Salary: $46,200
