Yes Mari, I knew that the layovers were for that duration, due to the 3 flights a week (Mon, Wed, Fri). Though when I said it's interesting to know, I meant despite the layover being 76 hours, cabin crew dread getting these flights because they are so demanding, and some call in sick!!

"No, most of the new ones are NOT prepared for the job. (Not only the job but being far from the family, living in Dubai, working in a multicultural environment.) That's the reason for the high turnover rate....better for the mature and hard working people who are physically and mentally stronger and more commited."

This is why I always stress you need to hire "dedicated cabin crew" and yes especially the mature and hard working people, and not the ones who want to come to Dubai to party!! lol...(So now any hope of a 42 year old being hired )
