'Hostess' is specifically female, while 'host' can be male or generic. Common in restaurants ('restaurant hostess'), events, or for greeting guests at home. Less common for airline staff (use 'flight attendant'). Not used for TV or radio presenters in American English—'host' is gender-neutral in most cases now.
