Dear Neha,
I can understand your frustration ,perhaps more than any of the learned members who have advised you in this column.It is because I worked in an airlines and pursued MBA in HR through correspondence and counselling ! I could not enter my airlines HR Dept. because my department would not release me.The age was not on my side so I could not change job.Secondly I would like to tell all those who think that MBA by correspondence is inferior to MBA regular that IT IS NOT SO.I cleared the selection test conducted by an external agency for recruitment of Management Trainees in our airlines.The candidates were from all kinds of Business schools in India including IIMs.Only a very few from many thousands passed the test.So have faith in yourself.
I have doubt that your airline shall ever put you in their HR department because you are a sincere and good worker whom they will like to have in their frontline job.Therefore I suggest that you take teaching assignments in management institutes teaching hospitality courses such as Aviation academies etc.It would be a great morale booster for you.Even management institutes teaching traditional streams of management prefer practicing managers from service industry.And remember service industry is a very big field.Your job satisfaction shall be at its best and you shall not have to leave this high paying job of a cabin crew.You can get additional jobs of paper setter/evaluator etc.Don't think much about money initially(from teaching assignments) but concentrate on your lectures instead and try to win students hearts.Rest shall follow automatically.The big plus is you can adjust lecture timings vis a vis duty timings by being a little diplomatic.So, all the best !

Hi Neha,
I appreciate the post by Sai Bhakta as the idea expressed there in
resonates in principle what I had suggested.
So it is the time to begin in right earnest.
Take to teaching/ training somewhere without expecting big money.
To start with doing free sessions also will be a breakthrough to work in the area of your interest.
