There are people who call the profession being a stewardess, cabin crew, cabinman, flight attendant or steward, but how should one really say?

Many times in aviation some small debates are generated, such as the best known or controversial, which is: Small plane or plane.

Definitions

after your answer, it's a good time to review, As we have in other cases, what does the RAE and aviation say both in regulation and in organizations such as ICAO, this is the answer:

RAE

bustle

Person who attends to passengers in an airplane or other means of transport

Aviation company employee, travels, etc., serving the public in various services.

air hostess

In some American countries, ‘person who attends passengers on an airplane’.

EASA

“Cabin crew member” means a suitably qualified cabin crew member, who is not a member of the flight crew or a member of the technical crew, who is assigned by an operator to perform tasks related to passenger and flight safety during operations;

FAA

People who work in the cabin of an aircraft that has 20 or more seats and is operated by an air carrier Party 121 of the Federal Aviation Regulations or a charter operator / at the request of the Party 135, must have a certificate of demonstrated competency issued by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
