A SINGLE mother-of-three made redundant after a 15-year career is flying high after landing a dream job.
Joanne Corbett, 44, secured a cabin crew role with Thomas Cook Airlines after training for a year at Hartlepool College.
Ms Corbett said: "I had a couple of interviews but didn't really think I would get anywhere. Then I got called in and offered a job. It was such a smooth transition you wouldn't have been able to write it.
"I haven't really come down from the adrenaline yet. I've just kept going and I haven't had time to think. It will probably dawn on me at 52,000 feet one day.
"It's a dream come true. If I can do it, anybody can do it. I don't know why people stop themselves. Just take the opportunity."
