Yes, surely, you are totally eligible to become an Air Hostess with your intermediate qualification.

You see, most airlines require a minimum of Class 12 pass from a recognized board.

These airlines also select candidates who are between 18 and 27 years old, physically fit, and possess good communication skills, especially in English.

Most aviation courses offered by different universities require their applicants to have cleared their class 12 exams.

Aviation and aeronautics both have their basis in flight Science and engineering. Depending on your end goal, one field may be better suited than the other.

Nowadays, some airlines have started asking for type rated Candidates on their fleet and certified by DGCA. And on the other hand some others have collaborated with major TRTO's like CAE to train CPL Candidates.
For Type 1 airlines you are required to complete a self sponsored training on any aircraft that is a part of such airline's fleet.
For Type 2 airlines, they hire CPL Candidates and then they are trained by their collaborated TRTO as per the airline's requirements.
You are then to probably fund or self-sponsor your type rating on whatever fleet you are selected in an airline.
Then, you finally get a job as a pilot.

Talking of doing CPL and then thinking of doing it at cheap cost are two far ends.
Doing CPL is a costly affair and it requires the candidate to fly actual aircraft and since it is a professional course it should be done under the guidance of experienced and well trained instructors.

But there's another fact related to it, that a couple of years ago Phillipines was black listed by DGCA for doing CPL. Although now the restrictions have been lifted off.
Experienced and professional instru
