This study aimed to examine the effects of leisure activities on leisure satisfaction and job satisfaction among airline cabin crew, as well as the mediating effect of leisure satisfaction. The context for this research was the sudden increase in air travel demand in 2022 following the COVID-19 economic recovery, which led to cabin crew members experiencing severe stress and fatigue due to excessive scheduling. To achieve this research objective, a self-administered online survey was conducted with 251 cabin crew members from domestic and international airlines, resulting in a total of 224 valid leisure satisfaction and job satisfaction, as well as the mediating effect of leisure satisfaction on the relationship between leisure activity types and job satisfaction. The hypothesis testing results revealed that all types of leisure activities, including family-oriented, friend-oriented, and work-related activities, had a significant positive effect on leisure satisfaction. Family-oriented and work-related leisure activities had a significant positive effect on job satisfaction, and leisure satisfaction had a significant positive effect on job satisfaction. Additionally, the mediation analysis confirmed that leisure satisfaction partially mediated the relationship between family-oriented and work-related leisure activities and job satisfaction, while it fully mediated the relationship between friend-oriented leisure activities and job satisfaction. Therefore, the study offers academic implications based on these findings and proposes strategies for utilizing various types of leisure activities to enhance leisure satisfaction and job satisfaction among airline cabin crew. It also suggests that future research should further validate these findings through methods such as the Delphi technique or Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) analysis to assess the importance and prioritization of these factors among relevant industry stakeholders.

The following is the summary of the result of this research. First - in terms of participation in leisure activities: more active participation is observed with the elderly who have a spouse than with those who do not in every kind of leisure activity (except for the pastime activities). Second - all of the variables indicating the level of satisfaction from activities of the seniors who have a spouse are by far higher than those of the elderly who have no spouse. Third - the leisure activities and the satisfaction from the activities prove affective variables on whether they have a spouse or not. Notably, the religious leisure activities are enjoyed more by those senior citizens who are married. Comparatively, the unmarried senior citizens participate more actively in recreational and pastime leisure activities. This study suggests various practical means to promote leisure activities to the elderly and to raise the level of satisfaction received from those activities, as well as to help those who are concerned with understanding and improving lifestyle satisfaction of the elderly population. Nonetheless, this analysis is limited due to the restriction on the number of objects and samples studied. Therefore, studies to analyze leisure activities by regions in order to account for a more balanced set of systematical tools should follow.
