Perhaps someone who is currently a long haul crew could provide more details?
Long haul is currently going through some changes so future rostering will be different.
From some sources, they get a generous amount of time off after a trip. eg 5 days Syd to LA trip, 5 days off. Rostering is usually done for 2 months.
One month has to be on call annually, again this was pre-covid things could change in the future for flexible rostering.
Maybe an existing crew could provide more details?
As an employee of Altara working for Qantas, they will get 4 tickets per year.
Casuals are on wage, hourly. (Qantas domestic)
Full-timers are salaried, annually (National jet systems)
If you've got time to spare, feel free to have a read

Best of luck everyone

Tattoos!- Qantas policy
Just wondering what Qantas’ policy is with tattoos. I know you’re not allowed ones that are visible while wearing uniform, but if you do have some, would they let you remove them during the ground school, or wear a longer shirt to cover them while you get the removed ? (I have a small one on my wrist). I don’t want to jump the gun and go get it removed asap, if they are flexible with this etc. I have already had a consultation with a tattoo removal company and said it would only take around 8 weeks to have mine completely removed.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Grooming standards
I’ve searched to try and find the grooming and appearance requirements for Qantas cabin crew but haven’t been able to find anything. I specifically want to know if nail polish is required? And are heels required or can flat shoes be worn?

Good morning! 
Anyone else who has not heard anything after completing the questionnaire? It's been two months since I did mine but I am starting to get a bit worried after some of you guys are doing the medicals already

Probably would be better just covering the tattoo with a long sleeves. If it's a small one on the wrist, a band aid over the top is probably enough to conceal.
Hello Cieletoile,
Externals first then internals.
Nails = clear, nude or french polish.
Shoes = low, 1-2 cm. High, 6-7cm. Flats could be worn during in flight service only.
Best of luck everyone

Through to medical👏🏻 YAY
Hey all!
It’s been 2 weeks since my XREF and security clearance has been done and I have just received an email saying I am progressing to the pre-employment medical. Anyone else?!
Does anyone know the specifics of what is in the medical?

I also have a question for you! When you recieved your medical email what’s the latest date you can get that medical! Do they give you a time frame of when you need to get it done ?

Yay! Congrats! The medicals are quite extensive (took me 1.5 hours to complete). They do a doping urine test, alcohol test, hearing, vision and some muscular/functional tests, but there are a lot of exercises involved! Other than lifting heavy objects, they do push-ups, side planks, squats, up and down the stairs, etc; so make sure you are wearing very comfortable clothes and even if you can, maybe prepare a little bit (I struggled a little bit with the push-ups)

Hey, congrats on moving onto medicals 😊, when I have done my medical for aviation it was urine tests, blood tests, eye test, hearing test, coordination test, ecg test (not sure if required now). But it’s super easy and all the designated aviation examiners are all super nice (there not like a regular doctor)

I received the email yesterday ( 04/04/22) at around 7pm saying I have progressed and will shortly receive an email from the third party provider who does the assessments. I am yet to receive an email from them so hopefully I have that by the end of the week.

I also received the same email around the same time and still waiting for Bodycare to contact me about the medicals. Fingers crossed they will by the end of the week.

Oh cool! Glad i’m not the only one. If I don’t hear by tomorrow afternoon I will most likely send the talent acquisition team an email. I don’t know if that is being too impatient but in the email it says “We would appreciate your timeliness in actioning this request”. So hopefully it comes soon

International Crew Brisbane
Did anyone else receive an email following the questionnaire saying they were no longer recruiting for Brisbane due to operational changes? They offered me SYD AD - did anyone accept this and considering commuting? Thanks 😊
