But all that travel comes with a serious workload. According to the Daily Mail, Jagelaviciute has scheduled 80 trips within the last year.
Luckily, Jagelaviciute doesn’t mind a life that’s constantly on the go. “I don’t like waking up at the same time and doing the same thing five days a week only to wait for the weekend...Meeting new people when you’re young is also lots of fun and this job is a great opportunity to make some long-lasting friendships,” she told the Daily Mail.
Of course, she also admits that traveling from one time zone or climate to another can be exhausting.
“The worst part of being a flight attendant is most definitely jet lag...You have to be capable to quickly adjust to different temperatures, time zones and places and it’s not easy. I think even after having worked many years in aviation people still struggle sometimes to fight it,” she said.
But she doesn’t intend to stop her jet-set life any time soon. Having traveled to 74 countries already, it seems that Jagelaviciute is striving to visit as many destinations as she can in the world.

“[74 countries is] only 30 percent of the world, so I still have a long way to go,” she said.
