Hold tight everyone, your patience is worth it.
Congratulations Ains!!! That's amazing news! I did my medical yesterday however Qantas HR phoned me prior and said as long as all goes well I will be starting on Jan 11th in Syd GS. Maybe we'll meet in person 😊

Sounds like we will be meeting in person, as I start on the 11th January.

Hope that the wait to hear isn't to long for you.

I wonder if there is more ground school starting from January 🤔?
Good luck with the move . Happy for you
Thank you 😊 Still in a state of shock. Woke up this morning with a smile as it wasn't a dream anymore.

I have a feeling there is more to come. Don't give up the impatient nerve wracking waiting

Hi team,
So glad I found this Forum.

I am sure every one in here will get his / her golden call.

After getting Active hold in September/October beginning of Nov I got the call with a potential start date mid Jan in Sydney.

Shortly after I got Asic and submit that a week later medicals which was submitted Yesterday.

Keep smiling and you will get the call when you don't expect it.

Hope to meet some of you in training.

Hi there, congratulations! Just a quick question, do you have previous cabin crew experiences?

It feels like a big family now I guess so keep us posted about your journey . Yay for you
Thank you Roaming!! This whole journey has been such an emotional roller coaster, after I received that last phone call I had a couple of happy tears it was such a relief haha! I'm obviously still waiting for the golden call, my Dr said I passed all physical so now I just need to wait for the drug and alcohol which I know will be clear then he'll send my results to Qantas no later then Tuesday!!
I'm glad your staying so positive throughout this journey, I know how hard it can be! Keep us all updated 😊

Congrats to everyone that's progressing and getting their golden calls. Out of interest did anyone receive the "active hold, your app is on hold until the new year" email recently and then get medical email/start date etc???

Hey

After the active hold email,
They called, and informed me on training day ect. Then straight after the call you get the Link to Submit the Asic.

My ASIC has been done and refs checked etc a couple of months ago... Just wondering if anyone had the "active hold, your app is on hold until new year" specific email and then since has progressed to medical etc??

Hi all!

So what Qantas needs is an OPG dental xray so they can store this on their records. They are asking me to bring it to the first day of training. However they will not accept a print out, or USB. It must be on a CD-ROM. I don't know how many dentists I have called, but all of them cannot do a CD-ROM! (Do they even still exist?! Haha). Anyone else having the same issue?

Hi there
Did your "on hold" email state that your app is on hold until the new year or was it just the standard "on active hold" email? Looks like Sydney happening quicker than Melbourne now.

Ooooh no sorry I just got the standard active hold email that basically said I could be waiting up to 12 months... but it wasn't long after that i received the emails for the next stages! You really can't pick it.

SYD Ground School 30th Nov

Hey everyone!

Is there anyone else moving to Sydney for this ground school who is going to be looking for a place to live? Myself and my friend are moving over from Perth and we are hoping to find one more person to find a rental with! 😊

Hi sorry!
Got busy so will reply now

Yes you can wear Fitbit / Apple Watch totally allowed (I wear mine all day)
When you land isn't counted as a day off that's just the rest of your duty day (which is good for mel base most landings are in the morning)

Training in gs for EPs was very not 9-5, some 6am starts some 2pm starts
But you're all in it together so it works out fine, plus free instant coffee in the training centre!
Days off in ground school for me were mainly single days off with one full weekend

Also cca320 ask your dentist to email it to you and just get it put on a disk at the library

That's what I did

I might be looking to share again, when I come back from my Holiday, however before I get the confirmation of the starting dates contract ( they said mid Jan) ect. I won't be able to commit to anything 😊

Hiiii, yes I'll be looking for a place and fellow flat mates.. haven't started yet as I live 1&1/2 south of Sydney so was just going to travel for the time being but I've been thinking it would probably be smart to live with other cabin crew as there will be a mutual understanding and respect for the shift work. Have you received ground school dates yet?
