What's your country of nationality? Are you planning to be an international flight attendant, or only domestic US? You can, of course, work in the USA once you have EAD, but you won't be a US permanent resident until you have completed AOS. Flight attendants have to have correct visas to work internationally and travel as crew, etc., depending on the country they are flying to.

You can probably speak to whomever is recruiting you, as I'm sure they have plenty of expertise on hand to guide a prospective new employee crew member through the appropriate processes.

I don't think this is an issue. From what I know of flight attendants for US carriers, I think you may need a bit of seniority before you get any international flights, but I could be wrong. The recruiters will know this as already stated.

Good Luck!

Hi all, thanks for all the info. I am from Hong Kong. My main concern is that advance parole does not guarantee re entry. As a crew member as well as a "pending resident", what kind of status will I be using for entering US? Can one person have crew member visa and AOS at the same time? I am afraid a person of AOS is not allowed to have other kind of visa.
