A Rare & Exciting Aviation Role: Flight Attendant for VIPs and the Columbus Blue Jackets!
Elevate Jet is looking for an experienced, polished, and genuinely service-driven Flight Attendant to join an elite aviation team. But here's what makes this role truly different: you won't just be serving high-profile VIP clientele—you'll also be the dedicated inflight support for a professional NHL team, the Columbus Blue Jackets, throughout their season and travel schedule.
This is not a typical airline position. It sits at the unique intersection of private jet service precision and professional sports team logistics. If you thrive on variety, discretion, and a fast-paced yet structured environment, this could be the career-defining role you've been waiting for.
What Makes This Position Stand Out:
- Travel alongside an NHL team during the season, experiencing the energy of professional sports from the inside
- Serve VIP passengers who expect elevated, personalized, and discreet service
- Join a close-knit, high-performance aviation culture where your contributions truly matter
- Enjoy consistent, high-quality flying on a dedicated Boeing 757 platform
- Approximately 65 overnights per year
- Occasional opportunities to attend NHL games as part of the experience
Your Role: Where Safety Meets Elite Service
Working under 14CFR125 Operations (Private Carriage), you'll be responsible for maintaining the highest standards of safety and regulatory compliance at all times. Onboard service is equally critical—you'll deliver a first-class experience with customized catering and beautiful presentation. From cabin preparation and stocking to flawless cleanliness, every detail matters.
You'll also coordinate closely with flight crew, catering, security, and ground operations to ensure seamless trips. For VIP clients and athletes alike, you'll maintain strict confidentiality and professionalism, adapting quickly to last-minute schedule changes with grace and composure.
What You Bring to the Team?
Minimum qualifications:
- At least 2 years of prior Flight Attendant experience (Boeing 757 experience is strongly preferred)
- Strong interpersonal and communication skills—you know how to read a room and anticipate needs
- Ability to work a pre-set schedule that includes evenings, weekends, and extended trips
- Professional demeanor and a polished, approachable appearance
- A valid US passport with at least one year remaining
- Ability to clear security and background checks, plus travel internationally
Preferred attributes (not required, but a strong plus):
- Previous experience supporting sports teams or high-profile VIP clients
- Background in VIP or corporate aviation
- High emotional intelligence and natural ability to anticipate passenger needs
- Strong organizational skills with sharp attention to detail
- A calm, composed presence even in a dynamic, rapidly changing environment
Also good to know:
- Physical lifting requirement: up to 25 lbs
- Proof of certain vaccinations may be required
- Must be able to pass a non-DOT pre-employment drug screening
Lifestyle & Schedule
This role offers something rare in aviation: a structured, predictable schedule. Your flying will align directly with the NHL team's calendar, so you'll know your trips well in advance. It's a stable rhythm that allows you to plan your life, while still enjoying the excitement of traveling with professional athletes.
Compensation & Benefits:
- Competitive salary based on your experience and seat position
- Medical, dental, and retirement options
- A stable, predictable schedule tied to the sports season—something truly uncommon in this industry
