the training was in Stansted at a nearby hotel, it was delivered by Primera Air trainers from Denmark. The training was a couple of weeks, very safety focused, and trained us for both Boeing 737 and Airbus A321, it was quite unorganised, the only organised part was when we visited British Airways’ learning academy for a day to operate Airbus doors. The service training was brief, leaving us with little to no knowledge of the onboard service, particularly the Premium cabin (for example no training in how to use onboard computers, how to deliver meals/drinks to Premium cabin etc).
We did not pay for training, and we were also not paid for training.
Uniform was free, however everybody was issued different uniforms, some with the new one some with the old, and some were given none at all.
