Qantas Longhaul here i come...

Hi there guys,
well my dream is nearly complete...
I have been told that i am through to training for Qantas (thru Addecco) going to Syd on 26th July for 5 weeks.

Now, i am doing my medical next week, and was wondering what it involved...also they told me i needed to get a USA visa... does anyone know how much this is and is it hard to obtain?

I am so excited! I cant believe i got thru! I cant wait to met ya'll!!!

Have a great day

Mikey

fate...

Hey there everyone,
Just wanted to say a huge thankyou for all your support...
I am overjoyed that i have got thru, ad dont you worry, ill put my passion into my servce and treat every passernger unique, and give them the best darn service they could ever imagine...

I still ave my medical to go though, and i have quite a bad hest infection at the mo, but went to the doctors, and they told me it should be alright.

But... as they say fate has a funny way of dealing things,and ill wait until i have passed my training, and my line checks, and have got my roster... then i will be even more thrilled and excited, than what i am now!

PS: If any QF flighties have any idea on the Visa and what is envolved, please let me know

Thankyou so much...
I am over joyed

Mkey

LOL - not anymore.

You have to arrange it yourself (the interview that is) - try to get in early as possible. There can be a bit of a wait so the earlier you get it arranged the better.

But as BC says its all fairly straight forward....
