stewardess

Is named stewardess to the person who is dedicated to attention of the passengers of a airplane, a bus, a train, a cruise ship or other means of transport. By extension, the term is used to refer to the employee of a transportation company that has the function of serving people.

The most frequent use of the concept is associated with a flight attendant, cabin crew or stewardess. These workers are in charge of ensuring the comfort of travelers and take care of the safety on board.

In the case of airplanes, flight attendants are responsible for various civilian operations and materials of the aircraft and they are obliged to comply with multiple aeronautical standards.

It is also known as a stewardess who, in a event, offers assistance and information to the public. The hostesses are hired especially for the development of this task in conferences, exhibitions and other meetings.

It is common for these tasks to be carried out women: that's why the feminine form is the most usual. However, there is also the concept of stewardess to name the men who carry out these actions.

It should be noted that, in ancient times, a stewardess was a maid of the Queen. The stewardess handed the jewelry and clothing to the monarch and then collected these garments and accessories when the sovereign took them off.

Finally, it is interesting to note that the hostesses who served the queens were named in this way because, within the framework of their job, they used to wear a stewardess: a basket or tray.
