I think they would still hire you, I work for Continental out on the ramp and I have a stuttering disability and they hired me, as long as you can do the job, it shouldn't matter, there are lots of other jobs at the airline too, Ticket agent, human resourses, everyone there gets to fly almost free and its pretty flexable. It takes time to get vacations though , but they are pretty flexible , they allow you to trade off days with other people and when its slow they give unpayed time off. You should try it anyhow, worst they can say is no.

Actually it may greatly affect your chances since you must be able to lead in an emergency evacuation. this seems to be a great handicap, b/c you are the person responsible for getting people out of the plane when smoke, darkness and
flames are surrounding you. U might want to check w/ the individual airline.

yes they can turn you down.. Sorry to say, there is no lawsuit you can file b/c your job is not to serve.. .its a job of safety. Most ppl dont see it that way. But you go through extensive training, rescues, evacuations and fire training too..

good Q, im also interested in becoming a flight attendant, i speak fluent romanian, my mothers hungarian,lol so we have something in common, but i think unless u were to become a pilot, u don't have to worry about it. try to c if lasik eye surgery would help. im not sure if you have to have 20/20 i have a lazy right eye, no one notices though you can't tell unless i take a dumb vision test. lol good luck to you!

it's not up to the airline, the FAA mandates that you are able to have 20/20 correcteable vision. meaning yes you can wear glasses or contacts, but the not being able to see out of your right eye will greatly affect your chances.
