When I search for work from home jobs, I occasionally come across various work from home airline jobs. It might surprise you there are some reputable airlines who actually use home-based agents to book flights and perform customer service duties.
For today's post, I've done the research and made a list of four major airlines that sometimes have home-based openings.
One downside — these companies all require that you work onsite for a while prior to being allowed to work from home. So this might not be an option for you depending on where you're located.
Please keep in mind the companies listed below aren't always hiring. I have provided this list for you as a reference to know what airlines to keep tabs on for work at home jobs.
In addition, the jobs below are exclusively US-based. But I'm happy to list some worldwide airline jobs if anyone is aware of them. Just comment and let me know!
4 Work From Home Airline Jobs
1. Southern Airways Express
This company has occasional openings for virtual call center agents. These jobs appear to be open to anyone in the US.
Per the most recent job listing, pay is $12 to $15 hourly. You would be working full-time, eight hour shifts. You only need to have a diploma or GED for past education, but they do state you need at least a year of past call center experience and they prefer if it's been within the airline industry.

2. American Airlines
This company has frequent openings for home-based reservation reps.
When the position is available, they typically hire people living in or near Dallas/Ft. Worth, TX, Cary, NC, and Miami, FL. American Airlines generally requires that you live within a 75 mile radius of the locations they hire in so you can come in for a face-to-face interview and work onsite for approximately eight weeks prior to being allowed to work from home.
It is mostly entry-level, you just need to be at least 18 years old with a high school diploma or GED. Pay is around $10+ hourly with opportunities for raises. Lots of benefits are offered.

3. Sun Country Airlines
This company has occasional customer service work from home airline jobs open.
You must live within one hour of commuting distance of Sun Country headquarters, which appears to be located in Minneapolis, MN. Training is for four weeks and is conducted virtually.
Pay for this position is listed at $15 hourly. It is a full-time position and you do need some past customer service experience to qualify.
Go here to see the listing for this position at Sun Country Airlines.
4. JetBlue
JetBlue has occasional work at home customer care agent openings in Orlando, FL and sometimes other areas.
The position typically requires training onsite for a period of time. When training is completed, you are free to work from home. JetBlue does require at least two years of past customer service experience.
They offer benefits and travel perks, although some of the Glassdoor reviews show complaints about low pay.
Go here to see open jobs at JetBlue. Any jobs you see listed as “JB Vacations Customer Care” are remote jobs.
Good luck if you decide to apply for any open work from home airline jobs. And again, please do not become discouraged if the jobs aren't open now. They come and go regularly.

Another idea if you're looking for more regularly posted work at home jobs is to get a membership at FlexJobs. I have seen the openings for the above airlines posted at different times.

I don’t know if any of these companies hire in California, but you can always keep tabs on their careers pages to see if there are openings in your area.

Hello,
Was excited at first and then realized I do not live near those states. Anything near Boston 😊
Thanks for the research. Hope it helps more than one

This could be fun! Travel perks would be especially nice, lol.

This would be a great opportunity! I wonder if you would get the perks of discounted flights by working with these airline carriers…this would be great for people who want to travel.
Thanks!

Actually, yes, many of them offer this! I meant to include that in the post but I think I forgot. But yes, that is a fantastic perk to having a job like this.
Keisha McDougall says
Thanks for sharing!!! I am really interested to know if there’s any airline that has opening available worldwide. I am from the Caribbean and would appreciate any info you have.
Anna T. says
Hi Keisha. Thank you for chiming in! Unfortunately I’m not sure on that. I would recommend finding out what the major airlines are where you live, then visit their websites and find their “careers” page. Then check for work from home positions in their customer service departments. Good luck!

Thanks for putting this together Anna. I had known about Jet Blue and Delta but not the other two. Thanks for sharing – I’ve already passed this on!
Have a great day and week!
