So that becomes very clear that it merely requires some grooming to get the job of a cabin crew. They don't demand much from candidates.
You should be interpersonally sound and capable to handle people from different cultures.
Cabin crew is the face of the airline. Coz they face the passengers for the first time.
Foreign languages like German, French, Russian, Arabic, Chinese and Japanese, Can allow you to get an edge over others.
As this allows the airline to roster you on routes where such languages are spoken.

You should also be aware that the cost of CPL Training is dependent on the type of aircraft you choose to get trained on:
Cessna 152 - Rs.8000-9000 Per Hour
Cessna 172 - Rs.10000-12000 Per Hour
P-16 - Rs.17000-18000 Per Hour
Etc.
And any candidate who gets enrolled for this professional training requires to complete 200 hrs of flying, in order to get his/her CPL issued.
Hence the total cost including accommodation + food goes around 30-40Lakhs.
IGRUA & NFTI are two premiere institutions in India who also have tie-up with international TRTO CAE.
Flying is taught by flying schools and not by universities as CPL is a professional training as I've already mentioned above and not a degree course.
Jobs are CPL are opening up nowadays as the Aviation sector is on a steady growth. If you remain in good touch with your books and constantly keep applying to vacancies as and when announced you may get a job as soon as 6 months after completion.

The Aviation sector has been providing numerous job opportunities to graduates in India. In the past, in case of India, there weren't many courses that focused on the aviation sector and groomed students to take on roles in that sector. Usually, Graduates of any discipline used to apply for aviation jobs. They used to get trained after they were selected after an interview. At present, things have changed! There are many aviation sector oriented courses present, which cater to the needs of the aviation Industry! In this article, I will list some of the best Aviation field related courses, which students may pursue after finishing their 12th standard schooling. As usual, I will provide basic course details, eligibility criteria, scope and job opportunities associated with the course, etc. Note that career prospects and the possibility of landing a high paying job in Aviation sector depends a lot on the quality of the Institute from which you pursue the course. Yes, type of course and aptitude of the candidate also plays a huge role. Make sure that you research well about an Institute/College, before taking admission in it. The first thing you should check is whether the Institute you are interested is approved and recognised by the appropriate authorities or not! Before selecting a particular course, make sure that you have the aptitude and ability to thrive in the role associated with that course. For example- not everyone can become a Commercial Pilot! If you don't have the aptitude to become a Pilot, it would be better to choose another Aviation course!

The salaries of pilots are similar all over the aviation market. It differs only on the basis of allowances that are paid to the pilots. Any FO can expect an initial salary of around Rs. 1.3-2.0 lacs per month. The flying allowances range between Rs. 1700-2400 per hour. Layover allowances are paid at the rate of $18-24 per day. So for any First Officer who flies around 60-70 hours per month, the salary ranges between Rs. 2.0-3.0 lacs per month. For captains, the salary almost doubles i.e. Rs. 4.0-7.0 lacs per month, initially. This range includes almost all the salary packages offered by either schedules operators or non-scheduled operators.
