This is the best summary I could come up with:
Sources say Max had been considering a third season of The Flight Attendant but ultimately star and exec producer Cuoco opted against returning to the role.
After becoming something of a breakout success for the fledgling, then-named HBO Max, the streamer ordered a second season, which draws the character into another mystery as she moonlights as a CIA asset.
“What started out as an attention-grabbing book cover quickly evolved into an extraordinary flight of a lifetime,” Cuoco said in a statement.
Added creator and executive producer Steve Yockey, “The Flight Attendant was a true passion project, and the reception from viewers and critics alike was pretty stunning.
Cuoco stars in and executive produces Based on a True Story at Peacock, which scored a second season pickup in October.
Yockey, who has an overall deal at Flight Attendant producer Warner Bros. TV, developed and is co-showrunner (with Beth Schwartz) of the Max-turned-Netflix series Dead Boy Detectives.

I loved the first season, but the second season stretched my ability to suspend my disbelief. Plus the first season addressed her mental health in a really clever and unique way, but wasn’t really dealt with in season 2 other than some mentions of it, IIRC. Granted I haven’t seen it since right after it was released.
All that to say, the second season wasn’t very good, at least not compared to the first, and I wish it had a chance to redeem itself, but I’m not surprised it wasn’t renewed

I enjoyed the first season well enough, is the 2nd season worth watching at all?

If you enjoyed the first you will enjoy the second. It’s not quite as good but it’s still a fun ride.
