Dog eat dog?
Yes, its a bad time in the industry at the moment, we are all fighting for the same few jobs!!!
I have had 3 contracts fall through this year due to the recession. I had to leave my last flying job as they broke the contract, leaving me in a junior position and in debt... A few days ago, I was offered a nice VVIP position and accepted, then a day later I was told another FA had gone direct to the owner and basically stole my job!!!! Gutted, as I really needed the job and it was perfect for me. Thanks mate... Now waiting to hear about another VVIP position, that I am shortlisted for - if this gets canned, I don't know what I'll do. Still got a mortgage to pay and no work and no income - aaarrrggh! Ok, rant over - just feeling sorry for myself! But please don't let it be 'dog eat dog' even in these difficult times... Maybe I'm just too nice to do that... Happy Landings ( soon I hope!) |
Elite Aviation
Hello Whisky!
I got a technical prob with my internet!! Just got repaired now. Have you got my last message yesterday? Also I also applied for elite aviation in AUH. But never heard back, I made a lot research but no success! :ugh: Do you really think this company exist..? |
Elite Aviation,
I saw their ad in Middle East newspaper some time ago (so probably exist) and I applied when the ad was on aviationjobsearch, the email was on yahoo or gmail.... sth like that.... probably they just hired enough ppl and deleted the email address well, still looking :{ |
Hi guys,
I have an interview with Amiri Flight, and have been in contact with Florence as well. As I understand from these posts you will be on sby 24/7... That seems a bit much. For example in NAS you are on sby for one month, and then have the next month off! Seems more fair to me. Is there anyone here who is currently working with them who could give an idea about the total salary for one month. I know it depends on how many days you are flying, but just to give an idea what to expect. And is it true that you need to share accommodation with another flight attendant? And what is life like in Qatar. I have lived in the UAE and spent a lot of time in Bahrain, two places that I love. How does Qatar compare? I am not afraid for a challenge, but I donīt want to work under a slave contract. Thanks for any inside tips! |
Standby 24/7 and you can't go home for the first six months. They also have a one year binding contract and if you leave before you have to reimburst certain costs.
Two people in each house or bungalow. I know that they have had a compound for the Amiri crew but also heard it's full at the moment. Qatar is probably somewhere between Bahrain and the UAE... |
Thanks for the info Emma Gemma.
I wouldn't mind sharing in the beginning, but I would much rather prefer to have a life and place of my own. I have already done that falt sharing thing with cabin crew before...It's not the real world. Any chance you can get an allownce for living alone? |

Wanna be Business Jet cabin attendant
Hi guys,
I'm currently in the airline industry as a ground crew, and was wondering if anyone has any comments or feed back in the working conditions as a cabin attendant on a private business jet? I'm considering sending in my resume and would love to hear from anyone who has experience working or maybe know of anyone working in private business jet environment. Thanks guys! :) |
You would need at least flying experience to even be considered...
How much depends on the company, but around 2-3 years flying should be fine to get started... But its a hard field to get a foot in the door! Working conditions all depend on which airline/region you want to work for.. |
Also try Skye Crew - Welcome to our websitethey have current VIP cabin crew available now. Skye Crew - Welcome to our website

Abu Dhabi base
Hi!
I applied for this company in February and I was invited for an assessment in April. (I was very surprised they answered to me at all!) Unfortunately, I was NOT successful. There were 7 girls (all native English speaker beside me), all of them with very good background. You need to be under 31 and very well groomed. They introduced the package and the working conditions. We had to give away our training and educational certificates, then we had 2 group discussions. Lunch and the interviews in the afternoon. You also need to finish an online psychometric test. Everything was very professional. If you are selected for this assessment day, you will receive an e-mail with ALL the details. So, don't worry, they will let you know everything before you go. I'm not sure I can write numbers here, so... Basic Salary is amazing: more than I expected. Accomodation allowance is great: you can rent a one-bedroom in the Marina in Dubai. The allowance for your duty day is 650 dirham. According to my source: tips are great as well. You are on standby 24/7 but usually they let you know a couple days before where and when you have to go. They offer you a two-year contract. |

Elite Aviation
Their first aircraft just showed up in Abu Dhabi, nice colors.
The aircraft is operated by a European operation so I don't think they'll be hiring soon. Maybe in the future? |

vip position
hI GUYS,:)
CAN ANYONE ANSWEAR ME ABOUT BEYOND AND ABOVE SCHOOL , I ALREADY POSTED A MESSAGE AND NO ONE ANSWERED. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE , APPRECIATE THE HELP:):ok: |
Kelly,
As you are Canadian take a look at Sterling Aviation Services Inc. out of Calgary. They also do training and provide contract flight attendants to Skyservice Business Aviation. I am not familiar with 'Above and Beyond', however, many of these companies are teaching you the VERY basic of what you need to know. And $3000US + flt + accom = a lot of dough! C3000 |
NAS?
I just read whole formu and I am getting confused.... :confused:
Is NAS part of NJME? As I understood NAS is low-cost and NJME is for VIPs? Is it right? Please if somebody has any info on NAS base in RUH... will appreciate:) |

Amiri Doha
Hi, has anyone recently applied for the Amiri flight in Doha and heard back from them? My details were sent off in June, I was told the girl in charge had been on holiday and would be looking at applications soon.
Does anyone have any info? I believe it's constant standbys. Any info would be gratefully received. |
but there is nothing bad in asking.....
is there? :confused: |
Hi mysza, how did you get on with NAS?
|
couldn't go that time :{
plus heard different opinion about it i know it is not wise to listen to gossips.... but i couldn't find anybody who has any good infos about them :confused: hmmm..... |
President Flight.
Hi guys,
Does anyone have any info on Presidential Flight (Amiri)? Got an interview |
oh, please again :ugh:
I did write about Amiri before.... ask questions, I had interview so probably can help ;) |
Presidential Flight.
Hi Mysza,
sorry to ask again...I really should have looked back on the post. Well I was ment to go for an interview with Amiri but could not make the date they requested.. Applied for them again when they changed Amiri to Presidential. Do you have any info on the work rotation and salary? need to pay fro ticket to Abu Dhabi (which I dont mind) so trying to get as much info as possible befor I go? Any info would be great, thanks! |
I heard the same about NAS to
|
no problem...:)
yup, they do not pay for your ticket or hotel so it is kind of expensive.... it takes whole day (till 16), normal interview welcoming, about the company, group exercise (two of them for us) everybody is very nice and friendly but they are looking at you all the time....:} there is tea and coffee plus lunch with some people from the office so you will meet lots of people dress up (however last time girl who didnt dress up passed the interview :confused:) smile work is standby, salary you will get with your invitation contract with the details it is ok, they give accomodation allowance, transport allowence plus out of base allowance so if you fly a bit you can earn :ok: plus tips!!!!!!!!! on my interview only girls from EK got the job so if you fly somewhere else or you are on a break your chances are smaller (but that was some time ago, maybe now they need more crew :confused:) if you have any more questions ask because i do not know what you want to know:} good luck and let us know how it went :ok: |
Thanks mysza......that was lots of info!!!
Well im ex virgin crew but will give it a try........ |
