hi
i just cannot believe that BMI leave it this late to advise you about the disclosure especially when the course i believe that you have just completed is about 4 weeks?? i know that they arent the only company though to do this as the last company i worked for were happy for new starters to wander around with no id and not being able to do their job properly. only difference is when you are crew this actually costs the crew member money as you know!
do you fly as an extra crew member on your first flight?? the other thing that we have been told to do is just shout.. 'WHAT CAN I DO!!" and normally someone will say oh can you get the bar top out or something to that effect? im sure in any case they wont think you are a hindrance and will actually be grateful that you are coming online to relieve the short staffness that alot of airlines seem to have been suffering recently.
as for the going on holiday...just go away and enjoy yourself and when you come back why not just take a quick flick through your books and again as i said before im sure when you get onboard everything will come flooding back to you.....
hopefully someone will reply to you that has been in a similar situation to you but has already started flying...not like me...just a newbie only 2 weeks into training...
in any case, good luck... and have a fab holiday
