hiya!
Just went to one a few weeks ago. The clothes were a hard one for me to decide on as well - but in the end went with smart casual, because EJ actually pride themselves on being different from other airlines... not so formal. They have actually banned ties in the workplace for all employees except pilots! If you read their website pretty thoroughly before you go, you will find out stuff like this. Is always a good idea to familiarize yourself with the company you are trying to get hired at - so make sure you do that!
I wore black dress trousers, a casual cream top and a dark green suede jacket. I got a job offer, so clearly my choice of clothes didn't do me any harm. Nearly everyone else was also dressed casual - and in fact the two people who did wear suits, didn't make it through the day for some reason or another, so there you go... likely unrelated, but could also be because they weren't in tune with what the company wants for itself.
As for numbers - there were 15 at the start of my day.
Hope that helps!
