Hobart RockStarr; I'm working for EY since 10 months now. In the first 6 months I usually got around 7500-8800. Now, after completing the first 6 months its min 9000 max 11000, it all depends on luck with the flights. Almost all the layovers are 24 hours, sin-bne, jnb, casablanca (can never remember the code for that one), kul, bru, yyz can be longer.
If u do a normal layover, it will go over 3 days on your roster. You will then be payed 250*3+24*layover allowance for that region.
Ive jsut been rated for A320, so can't say anything abt it yet, but theyve changed the schedule so there's loads of layovers now. One seems really nice 4 hours to india, 24 hour layover, 4 hours back to AUH, 3 h to syria and 24 hour layover and then back.
At some hotels u get discounts, some don't. Its funny how ordering roomservice in Manchester can be cheaper than in Thailand due to the 50% discount vs 0%.
Dubai and Abu Dhabi are different worlds! We have maybe 3 or 4 clubs here, if u could really call it that as all girls are Etihad and all guys are understimulated arabs (plus the few male crew). Theres not as much traffic, a lot more locals, less nice cars (but somehow I've spotted 4 ferraris, one ashton martin, 2 rolls royce and one bentley in 3 days now??). We got Picasso at Emirates Palace, and new museums after a couple of years... It's all down to what u like, if its all about partying go for Dubai. If u like a more relaxed and down to earth lifestyle go for AD.

Hi all, thanks for the info regarding the EY Vs EK pay. I'm still a little uncertain as to whether I'd be getting a better deal with EY, I like the idea of longer layovers, and the schedule leads me to believe that in most destinations I'd probably be looking at 48hours down route? Can anyone tell me if thats common? Also with regards to the layover allowances, can you tell me again- if I landed at say 2am on a morning, down route, would I recieve both the daily pay and the allowance?
Do you get discount at the hotel as crew?
So many other questions!
I never made it to Abu Dhabi from Dubai- is there anyone out there than can compare the two?

I applied for Etihad Cabin Crew almost 4 weeks ago, but my status still shows as 'Applied', and has not yet gone to 'Under Review'...

Does it usually take this long? Thanks

Hi everyone. first and foremost I would like to thank everyone for all the great information you have posted about Etihad and the working conditions and al the pay and stuff. I am REALLY interested in going over there. I really want to go. They are coming to an interview in NYC on Sept. 26th. I have a few questions..

To my application, do i attach a passport photo, a full size photo in business attire and my cv, is that correct?

I am hoping they invite me to the interview in NYC sept 26th, in the notes below should I request to see if they can invite me to this interview.

I have seen some youtube videos and they all seem like they hire males and females, so I was wondering what are my chances? (I am male) I have 4+ years as cabin crew for a american major airline. I would appreciate all the help I can get. Goodlukc to everyone.


BTW my brother is a pilot for Qatar Airways, and at least I would be close to where he is with his family so I kinda sorta know someone over there.

etihad assesment 5th september barcelona

hi, i had the assesment day for etihad in barcelona a few days ago, unfortunately, i didn´t get the job, we were like 50-55 candidates, just a few!!! and i was quite happy and motivated because of this......... we did english test, very easy, just u have to think a little bit, and then one to one interview, in which we had to choose an object from newspaper, pen, mobile, water........ i chose the newspaper (culture, reading, keep up to date, bla bla bla) and then why etihad, i answer its growing very fast, multicultural cabin crew, museums, gulf.. like this. now i feel bad because i was unsuccesful and i did my best, maybe the next time i will say (newspaper because is a window to the world; and etihad because my dream is to be cabin crew and i like the arabian hospitality...............) actually there were so many good looking girls and they were eliminated as well...................
i am getting crazy, and i know one girl not too nice make -up, loose hair, and casual clothes went through the next stage...........
so where is the trick?

Etihad Cabin Crew Training

Hi all, does anybody know if Etihad recruit Cabin Crew Trainers/Instructors?

I have looked at the recruitment website but it seems focussed on Cabin Crew/Managers and when I do a search on the jobs website at Etihad, it comes up with...zilch...,it does not recognise the term Instructor/Trainer?

Anyone who could point me in the right direction/a contact etc? I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks and good luck to all!

Just be yourself, don't get stressed (well try not to) and try to prepare for your interview, the questions that would try be asked like : why you choose etihad ? what are your qualities? what is the riole of the cabin crew? why would you quit your job for etihad? talk about yourself ? why should we take you ? so do some research and you will get a clear idea ... smile but not too much ... during the grtoup interview try not to be the leader but try to respect every person and give chance to everybody to talk and say somthing smart lol ... anyways good luck for everybody i am already in since 8 months lol ... take care ...

Hey

I applied for Etihad Cabin Crew about 1 1/2 months ago, but it still just says 'Applied' on the website, does it normally take this long before it goes to 'Under Review'?

Thanks
