Australian Survivor winner Jericho Malabonga returns to work as a Qantas flight attendant

Australian Survivor season four winner Jericho Malabonga is back at work at his job as a Qantas flight attendant after appearing on Survivor: All Stars earlier this year. 

The 28-year-old shared an Instagram post on Sunday that showed him posed in front of a jet. 

He was wearing a face mask, and his flight attendant uniform, and squatted near the ground while gesturing with his hands. 

In his caption, the former reality star explained that he was helping to bring stranded Australians home from overseas with the airline. 

He wrote: ‘Returning Stranded Aussies Home. I got u Fam. Get in!’ 

Jericho also posted some Instagram Stories showing the flight crew enacting social distancing measures. 

‘Social distancing down those stairs on fleek!’ he captioned one photo which showed a pilot and mother crew descending onto the tarmac.   

He was the second castaway to be voted off Survivor: All Stars but Jericho is continuing to reap the rewards of his $500,000 prize money from 2017.   

Jericho, who never left his pre-fame job as a Qantas flight attendant, told News.com.au that he used the money to buy a house. 

‘[The money] wasn’t enough to leave my full-time job, but it was awesome to set myself up and get into the property market,’ he said. 

Three years after his life-changing victory on Survivor, Jericho said he still gets recognised by passengers from time to time.

‘It’s pretty cool when passengers recognise me, but I try not to name-drop myself,’ he said.
