Native speaker CC
Mari, i don't mean to be personal but you seem to have a bit of a chip on your shoulder. Your comments about UK, Aussie crew aside from being generalisations border on being racist. You say you love EK so much, so isn't the international mix of cabin crew including native speakers from the forementioned a good thing?
Aussies, Kiwis, Brits are all good to work with if you try to understand their back ground. For example, in the case of Aussies they have it so good back in their country which is why they seem to complain a lot here. The unemployment pay they get from the government when they don't have a job is equal to our base salary! So you cant expect them to take the work too seriously. So why don't they just all go home? Many are here because they just want to travel for a year or because when they came they thought they would make more money. Their aspirations are not going to be the same as yours, which is fair enough. When EK recruit in NZ for example they wont say how much you will earn as when you convert to local salary rates its a joke. That said, after you resign from a job and take the trouble of coming over here you cant just run back to your country.
Basically the difference between native speaker cc and other cc is that for them they are mainly here for an experience, travel a bit, party and then go home. For other CC, this is a career, a job better than what they could get back in their home country, good money and even a better standard of living. You need to remember that when you work with Aussie cc etc, most of them have come from something much better than compared to what you have come from.
The reality is that most EK cc from Africa, middle east, Asia wouldn't be able to enter UK, Aus, Can even on tourist visas so they are fortunate to get the chance to travel to these countries.
Another rumour I have heard is that EK is scrapping the FX protection and base salary will instead be adjusted depending on what country you are from. Therefore cc from Aus, UK and some EU countries are likely to end up earning much more.
