I had my final interview in London on 3rd May and Ryan phoned me 1 1/2 weeks ago. I had waited 3 weeks and 3 days. I can't see why your security clearence would be taking so long but I still maintain that no news is good news.

I'm just having my medicals at the moment and haven't found them intrusive at all but I am booked in for lots of injections tomorrow which I think will probably be the worst bit!!!

Really hope that you hear from them soon. Fingers crossed for you xxx

Hi Guys

I got my start date today I got a call from coka???

Got most of my medical done I had to have a wisdom tooth extracted cause it had a chip in it so now I am in pain!

You dont need teeth removed if they are healthy.

I dont have all medicals done like xrays of my chest and blood tests as it takes 2 weeks for answers so Ryan told me get as much done as possible.

My jabs will need to wait too as my Dr says I dont need them for out there again Ryan said this was fine as I only had 2.5 weeks notice that I am leaving to go to EY

So my official start date is the 17th June!

Cant wait I will be flying from London probably if anyone else is..

How about Assessment Day in Poland? Were there many attendants? I am curious to know how it was. I regrettably couldn't attend the event on that day. buuuuu

Hi!
I didnt receive any call so i decide to call them by myself. I called them yesterday and they (lorine and some other girl from office) told me that everything was fine to move to next level... then she just asked when i could start? As im not working at the moment i told as soon as possible.
So my starting day will be 24th .
Good luck

Hey guys I am just in process of applying for EY, EK and Possibly Qatar though no idae whther I actually can apply to Qatar??

Anywya I know some ppl have been bad mouthing Etihad but I see you guys got a pya rise for starters which with your accomodation is probably better than my wages at BA Gatwick.

I just have some questions though.

What's the rosters like when you start flying and what's the deal with accomodation is it for the duration of your employment?

Anything you can throw in about Etihad or the other 2 airlines I mentioned would be great.

I've just decided I want to make one of those changes and clean out the cupboards as it were and I thought England wasn't the place to do it so UAE sprung to mind!

Anywya thanks for any advice

[Matt101]

Just read the first half page of the Qatar string - It sounds like I'd rater not apply for them after all! So just EY and EK comments unless anythign has changed for the better at QR

Sorry guys thanks and i hoep I ma not hijacking this thread too much by asking about EK aswell but I've asked in that thread and just wanted to get a mix of opinion

CHeers,

Matt

Hi,

i know the wait is sooooooo hard, i found out yesterday mine, it had been 3 weeks, i think in the 3 week mark you will find out, although there are some lucky people that found out within 10 days, 2 weeks...

Sometimes is the case if you havent heard from them in the 1st week means you are going through a security clearance check...

I know its really hard, trust me i was so impatient just wanting to know, it was torture having to wait!!

But ! it is true, the waiting is worth the while.

Phone

Hi,

If anyone could help me please i would really appreciate it!!!

i would like to know what people have done with there mobile phones, what kind of caps, sim cards etc....
the roaming etc...

I would appreciate some feedback, have rang Vodafone who i am with now in Australia, but they have a terrible roaming cap.... there caps are not really good for the roaming factor...

Hi ozzie girl, with your query, a friend of mine who is already working for EY for about years now suggested to bring 2 phones. One having UAE's nationwide sim card "ETISALAT", then the other one is for your sim card there in Australia, just let in be roamed before you leave the country. Your family and friends can save tons of money contacting you to your Aussie's sim then you reply with UAE's sim. However it also depend as to how much vodafone will cost international( network to network) call and sms. Here in Philippines, its so cheap that i'll definitely do this way. And don't forget you have the option to use PC communicating with them as well
By The Way, congratulations! and see you there

Hope this will help

[weeflygirl]

Check what international sim cards are available in your country in the uk there is one I am looking at called mycherrymobile.

Its free to recieve calls abroad and its classed as a uk no so my friends can use there free mins to call me.

Hi Everyone

So I am sure this question has been asked a thousand times but after reading most of the thread I do not feel any more in the know. I wanted to know what the medical for this ariline is and where it is taken place? Is the medical arequirement that is standard for all UAE states? Does it vary?

I am an experienced Senior Crew Member looking to get back into flying and want to consider the UAE but at a complete loss as to which airline and state to consider.

Thanks for your advice everyone.
