Flights

Each month when u get your roster, u will see mxture of short haul, medium haul, long and ultra long haul. The first few months u will get approx 3-4 long/ultra long haul flights (which are great) Later on in the year, should they decide to train you on the 320 aircraft, the number of turnaround flights will increase. Just be prepared from the start to do both. Some short haul flights are easy, like Doha and Bahrain.... less than an hour each way. Good luck.

The assessment day will start nice and early... 8:30! It'll run the whole day with a couple of cut off points. The final interview is that day as well. So if you have to book flights and hotels, you will not have to go away for very long. Did you get your invitation already?

EY swap system

Guess how the flight swap works in etihad? The company provided system is so efficient ( pen&paper,hardly works) that crew use Facebook as a way of swapping their trips. How do u like it?

Oh my God!!! I am coming and I read here that things are bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok I'll stay 6 months and then I'll leave. Do you know if I have to pay anything after 6 months? I hate short haul and turnarounds.

Try and have little more perspective.. there's a mix of short and long haul for most international airline (is there not?).

You'd be crazy to think you were going to have long-haul trips exclusively - - look at the location of the base and then look at the distance between it and many of the destinations they fly to. It's common sense.

Heya, dont be too worried. You will have the opporutnity to travel all over. Since Ive been here, Ive been to Germany, Canada, Thailand, Malaysia, UK etc etc. U will get to go to some great places, but u will be required to do Turnarounds also. If ur not happy after 6 months, u can resign and wont be required to pay anything.

Salary !

Somes of crew told that the average salary is about 10000-11000 and some other told it is 7000-8000 !
That makes a big difference !

Can anyone tell me what is the real average salary ?

Thank you.

On the website it says their basic salary ranges from:
AED 3020/month
AED 210/ flying day
AED 288 / layover per day. (On the website it says the pay is ranged from this to prices slightly higher but ive just given you the lowest prices. I always think its best to prepare yourself for the lowest anyway.) So just go to currency convertor and change it to your currency to see what you get per month. hope that helps!

Depending on the roster you get...that's it. But don't think 10000 not even could be possible! he/she might be a purser...

Seems that some of you have not read the stickie at the top of the forum, so here is a repeat:

Posts in this forum MUST:
  • Not use text message abbreviations.
  • Make sufficient use of punctuation & grammar to be readable.
  • Not be used instead of private messages.
  • Not be used to tell somebody else about a private message.
  • Have a point (i.e. be relevant to the thread and not chatter)


Thanks for your help...

salary

Salary differs. I've been flying for 4 months and my average is 8700-9700. I'm not yet trained for the A320. I do short-haul, medium, long-haul.
And I don't mind getting short haul flights .. Very easy service and if you're lucky you work for few hours and get paid for 2-day roster.

visitors policy

Your boyfriend can sleep in a hotel as long as he pays for it, dont count on EY accomodation. They dont allow your same sex colleagues from EY to stay at your place after 1.AM, so how do you imagine your boyfriend staying with you? If you want to invite family you need to apply for a permission in advance and the visit has to be minimum 10 days. The bottom line is they dont want you to have a life. Good luck

Have you always had such a depressing attitude?

They don't make annoying limitations like that because they get their kicks out of restricting crew, they do it because they are still running a business, and of course it is in their interests not to have acquaintances of their employees freeloading at the accommodation they are providing, and using the utilities they are paying for.

I know that there are no cheap hotel over there, how can they think I can manage this? After 6 months I'll leave EY with happiness!!!!!


-A320 training is when I join or later on?????

- how many weeks initial training???????

THANK YOU!

You can apply for a live out allowance and rent your own appartment , its not very ideal because you are going to pay more out of your salary, but you'll have your freedom to bring boyfriend , girlfriend , family whoever you like
