Hi everyone,
I’m considering applying for Ryanair cabin crew based at Frankfurt Hahn and I have a few questions for anyone currently working there or who has worked there before.
My biggest question is honestly the commute. I live in the Frankfurt am Main area, and Frankfurt Hahn seems extremely far away with no real direct train connection. How do cabin crew usually get there for early shifts? Do most people drive? Share accommodation nearby? Does Ryanair provide any transport support or is the travel cost completely your responsibility?
I’d also love to know:
What is the pay actually like for cabin crew in Germany?
Is the roster/work-life balance manageable?
How intense are the shifts really?
Are the “5 on / 3 off” rosters accurate in practice?
I also have a cabin crew information/recruitment day in Mainz next week and was wondering what those are like. Are they usually very crowded/competitive? What should I realistically expect from the day?
Would really appreciate any honest insight, especially from anyone based at HHN specifically.
