Hello everyone!
I got an email saying to be ready to travel from Zagreb on 11 Dec, but I did not receive any notification on the medical clearance or any more detailed travel arrangement or contract?
Can someone tell me what that means?
And is there anyone else going from Zagreb on that date?
Thanks for your help.
Also, I know this has been discussed before and to great extent, but I can't help but to express my concern about joining QR with the reputation they have on this forum. I know someone will say that it will be what I make of it....but the amount of rumors here and description of some incidents is extremely worrisome...
I had a need to say that.
That need has been satisfied.
Thank you. If anyone has something enlightening to say, please do so...

Hello Sui Generis!
Quite similar case happened to one friend here of Spanish batch. She recieved the flight ticket and visa, when she even hadn't recieved the contract, neither had she confirmed to agree traveling on that date.
So you should take it as a mistake. I mean, that day of Journey will probably be the real one, take it as you will be flying on that date, but they just didn't organize well to send you first the offer of employment and so on... This may have happened cause sometimes it is not your recruiter who arranges your ticket and visa, but this is done by another officer... Yes, it's quite a kaos...
And if you have recieved the email today, note they are on Eid Hollydays, so it might have been like a quick advise to you for getting ready to travel on that date. Thats good, in order to plan everything, isn't it?
By the way, I'm supposed to start training on 14th Dec, so in case you're a girl, we will be in the same batch
Good luck!

Thanks Iceania.
It was another person telling me about the flight date and it was several days ago. But it was the flight date they asked me to provide.
It does seem pretty chaotic over there...
And I'm a guy...so we won't be in the same batch....Is batch a group of new joiners in the same training session?
Am not so familiar with the crew member lingo....

Entery visa for countries we fly to
Anyone knows how it works when we go to countries as cabin crew, do we need visa to enter or we have like a special permission to enter?
Andis it the same if we fly on our own for holidays?
Emma I am sure you know that because you are already working

QR will be processing crew visas but they won't be issued to you.
You get into most countries with a 'general statement' which is a form that CS/CSD's hand to ground staff on arrival. In some places like Europe you will only have to show your ID card to get through immigration and sometimes like in Asia you'll have to show your passport ( sometimes you get a once-a-year stamp, sometimes they just look at it and let you go through ).
However, for US and Russia flights you need to apply for a Crew Visa with some waiting time due to seniority issues ( US Visa : 2 years , Russian Visa: until you get a slot at the Embassy ).
When traveling on your own , you are gonna need to apply for any visas you would have to as an independent traveler. ( e.g. Schengen Visa, UK Visa if needed ).

Hi Lucas,
Note that these days, until 30th Nov, there is Eid Holiday, so the Office will be closed until Tuesday.
I think, if I were you, I would try to make them aware of the situation, without a place to stay and so on... That could make them hurry up a little bit due to the difficult situation. Think about when did you tell them that your visa was not correct, and if they had time since then to start issuing a new visa for you. It's really difficult to know if they will have time enough to arrange it all before thursday...
Also, I think you should start thinking about the small but real possibility of being asked to wait for some more days. So you could start trying to see where could you stay during some days (friends, family, or even hotel/hostel) You know, this is an unpredictable matter... But it will be worth in the end for sure!
Good luck!!

one of my batchmates also has problem with her visa, her passport number in the visa is wrong. but she's here. the office changed it when she arrived here so that her other documents will be correct. so no worries, I think you can still go here and be with your batch. it is hard for them to resched you in a different batch, now that you already have your ticket and visa.
all the best.
all the best.

@fungus amongus
the interview questions are tailored for each interveiwee. you wont get the same questions for the most part as others.
you will get ones on problem dealing,
how you react to things,
why you left your past job
, customer service questions,
people skill questions,
if youve done any volunteer work then why?
just make sure you make affirmative and positive answers, dont answer in negatives. e.g. do you have any weeknesses = yes, i am sometimes too awesome

hey ice.. how are things going on from your side? im sure that you are really eager to fly since they have pushed your DOJ further away..
lucas im sorry to hear that.. but yeah its really troublesome when you have already moved out of your apartement and you'll have to find another temporary accomodation before you fly.. but i think that ice is right, just call them up and tell them bout your probs they might be able to fix it..

Hello...
When did you receive the regret letter....? I am sorry for that...Now I become nervous to what will happen to my application? I had my FI last Nov 15. Hope it will goes well... By the way, are you female? thanks.
Try again...
Another thing, have question to all, My friend asking with me tried also for QR but he did not make it, and he asked me if can be interviewed again by QR even not after 6mos, or should he apply after 6mos like EK?
Thank you so much...

as long as he didnt make it to the final interview he can always apply again, no need to wait. but if you have made it to the finals and you have been rejected.. then you'll have to wait for 6 months so that they clear the systems from your application.. Good luck Clark..
