That really sucks, doesn't it? It angers me that there are such people employed in the industry when I so desperately want their job and would be willing to do it
properly, too.
I haven't been on any EK flights as far as I recall, but my dad's just flown with them on a business trip. Sounded like the flight was pretty good for him (I think he was on business class) - no complaints, anyway. Apparently most of the flight attendants looked to be older than me (I'm 20). Did the flight attendants have a particular 'look' on your flight, IJWTF? Tall blondes? Exotic brunettes? I'm still trying to figure out if EK hires people who fit a certain image.
Anyway, good luck to ya mate.
When the ordeal is over let us know how you fared.
