Assure the interviewer that you are aware of the inconsistent schedule associated with being a flight attendant. However, any questions you have pertaining to these expectations, you'll want to answer for yourself before your interview. There was recently an agreement between Spirit Airlines and the flight attendants in the service of Spirit Airlines through their union that offers protections and limitations regarding overtime, among other things. Spend some time reading through this agreement and avoid bringing it up in your interview. Discussions on Unions can be a touchy subject, and you never know where they stand on such issues. So in this case, it is best to inform yourself and be straightforward with your response.

"In my most recent position with Airline XYZ, I had an inconsistent schedule that required me to often be on call. I worked many weekends and holidays. This is part of the lifestyle of a Flight Attendant, I completely understand. I'm happy to work any hours that are offered to me."

"I am available for a wide range of hours, and overtime. I prefer to be made aware of my schedule ahead of time so that I can make appropriate childcare arrangements."
