THE PERFECT ONBOARD CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE REQUIRES A WELL-TRAINED SERVICE TEAM

EXCELLENT SERVICE AND HIGHLY SKILLED CABIN CREWS

While the license-relevant skills of a cabin crew require annual checks and refresher training, there is no such obligation for service training. However, to keep up with increasing service demands, service skills not only need to be reinforced, they also need to be continuously expanded and adapted to ensure an excellent customer experience. This also includes addressing health-related stresses on flight attendants with active health management.

With our Advanced Service Training courses, we offer you – at six locations in Germany and Switzerland – a comprehensive training program for advanced technical training and maintaining the performance of your cabin crews.

Gastronomy Training

Cabin crew members are exposed to a number of challenges. To ensure five-star service, culinary expertise is of particular importance, including professional knowledge regarding wine and cheese selection – a staple of excellent onboard service. In addition to in-depth product expertise, during the advanced training, participants also gain an understanding of premium food sales as well as the price-to-performance ratio of different products.

Objective

The cabin crew gains new knowledge and individual skills for their own service work, thereby undergoing both personal and professional development. This helps ensure a sustainably positive customer experience.

Procedure

  • One or two-day practical training
  • Theory lessons in modern seminar rooms
  • Practical teamwork exercises and individual tasks in our service mock-ups

Service on board is faced with complex challenges, particularly on international flights. Potential language barriers and cultural differences between guests demand diverse communication skills.
