Air transport plays an indispensable role in global tourism. Its development not only enables faster travel but also creates new opportunities for destinations.
But what does it take to ensure that passengers feel comfortable on board an aircraft? What goes on behind the scenes in the work of cabin crew? A flight attendant is much more than someone who helps passengers find their seats and offers them a cup of coffee. The profession involves responsibility for the entire cabin, ensuring compliance with safety regulations, undergoing demanding training under simulated conditions, providing first aid when necessary, and carrying out administrative tasks such as customs declarations, in-flight reports, and much more.
An insight into the behind-the-scenes work of cabin crew was provided by a lecture entitled “Cabin Crew Life: Life Above the Clouds”, delivered by Ing. Kateřina Prosecká, a senior cabin crew member at Ryanair. The lecture was organised by the Department of Tourism.
The event took place as part of the courses Information Systems and Smart Technologies in Tourism and Theory of Tourism Services. It was intended for students as well as the general public.
The lecture took place on 19 October 2026.
