But it came at a cost — he was earning almost half of what he did pre-pandemic as there were limited flights.
Transport Minister S Iswaran said last week that the number of passengers passing through Changi Airport daily was 75 per cent of the average number of weekly passengers pre-pandemic. The mother of one daughter aged three had spent four years as a nurse with Changi General Hospital before becoming a flight attendant with SIA for seven years.
That was where he served patients who are typically heavily immobilised, such as seniors recovering from stroke. "I thought to myself that I may not have the technical expertise or desire to be a nurse, but I can help provide this service that is expected to be delivered to patients."
My salute to these cabin crews who made the switch. It’s never easy to let go of a cabin crew job esp. with SQ and yet they followed their hearts to make brighter days for our patients. Thank you. You’ll be blessed in return❤️
Smart move
It was a great way to fly
