Funny thing is, I've always felt that the title "stewardess" was actually more glamorous and empowering for these ladies. "Flight attendant" to me almost gives images of being a servant, while the other gives the idea of them enforcing the rules and being in charge to an extent. Same thing for the men with the title "steward".

I still say air hostess but a friend of mine always corrects me to cabin crew
