I hope they start getting paid based on how many hours they work instead of their time in the air.

Everytime I hear this I get more and more pissed off. Boarding is work, if I can be reprimanded for not helping people board then I should be getting paid. The airlines charge is for every little thing and cram us into these flying safety hazards they can spare some coin for the person helping the wheelchair bound elderly person into their seat.

How many hours do they work when they're not in the air?

Hard to know if you're not a flight attendant, but pretty sure there's plenty of work to do before and after a flight is in the air that they're not being compensated for.

At least an hour and a half if the flight doesn't have any issues.
