Aeroméxico cabin crew requirements
The hard filters Aeroméxico applies before a recruiter reads your CV — age, reach, tattoos, languages and documents, with how strict each one is compared to the rest of the industry.
Minimum age
18 years
Most carriers set 18; Gulf and US majors usually 21.
Height & reach
158 cm min
Reach matters more than height: you must access the emergency equipment overhead.
Tattoos
Nothing visible in uniform
No visible tattoos while in uniform. Like most of the 59 airlines we index, nothing may show while you are in uniform.
Languages
English + Spanish
Fluent Spanish and strong English (typically TOEFL-level proficiency required); French, Japanese or Korean are advantages on the network.
Education
Completed high school (preparatoria) minimum; the DGAC-issued sobrecargo licence is required or obtained through Aeroméxico's training.
Also required
Medical, swimming & documents
Mexican work authorization, valid passport and US visa eligibility, swimming ability, and a DGAC aeromedical certificate.
