Can a flight attendant afford to live and work in New York City? New York City - 3 Answers Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions : 1 : Probably not, unless you can find a a rent controlled apartment or share an apartment. 2 : Many flight attendants used to live in the Kew Gardens area in shared apartments. This is a short bus ride to Kennedy Airport and also convenient to La Guardia. I don't know if they still have this situation, however. 3 : I live in Kew Gardens and know that many airlines own apartments in the area and help flight attendants and pilots find shares. Kew Gardens is approximately 10 minutes from JFK and 12 minutes from LaGuardia, and along with the airline shuttles for their workers, there is also public transportation that stops in the area. Its really a very nice area and the apartments are a decent size.
