Thank you!!! as i previously said it wasnt meant to offend but after reading so many different threads i get the feeling that people dont think things out properly... generally if you are asked for a skill for a job then it is because you will need to use it!!!
No i left EY a little while ago for personal reasons so i am currently trying to break into the corporate sector especially within the middle east as this is where i hold all my experience.... so if anyone knows anyone that is looking at the moment i would be most grateful for any leads...
happy flying!!!

Lay-over
Hi gals and dudes! I am keen on joining EY. Heard also that pretty soon you will have lay over allowances, so congrats to everyone.
I would like to know though, what are the destinations of EY where you have layovers? And for how long do you stay there? How far can an a330 go? Do you have time for sightseeing when you have layovers? Is it fun to fly with EY?
Hope you can provide me some info. Thanks to all!

finally ...
Well,
finally it happened. We got allowances, and it starts from february 1st, which means our march salary slip will show that
I would also like to say that all our posts here (bad and good) for sure had an influence on the management as I was informed that certain people in EY do read PPRUNE forums.
So, this is a kind of very important victory for us, cabin crew, working here in EY.
Now, Etihad sounds more attractive company for the cabin crew to work for.
Happy flying guys!

UK Male flightattendants.
Can anyone tell me if Etihad employ British Nationality males at all? I would be very interested in applying for them, but don't want to go through all the application to then get turned down. I know of some UAE airlines that don't employ Western European males. Many thanksx

I had enough
I'm CC who resigned today from EY! I had enough of this compagny.
Be careful guys!! you think that the new meals allowances is an increase but it's "NOT"!!
They should have done it a long time ago as normal airline!!!
Even BIMAN BANGLADESH AIRLINE
have this allowances!!
For the new basic salary, another 12 months to wait
, I'm wondering how they gonna select "Cabin Senior", even if you're doing Galley for more than a year doesn't mean that you'll get the position! don't be surprised if you see senior CC who will be rejected for Cabin Senior "Oh sorry, we are looking for other skills for this position!!" 
In return, you will have to fly more! DAC, CMB turnaround (check the new schedule for summer season)!!! is coming soon, double sectors!!!
It's not acceptable to still getting paid with "DUTY DAYS" with
ULR (ultra long range) flights JFK, YYZ (1stJune) SYD.
Because of legality and if you get 2 of these flights per month you'll have already 8 days OFF + other days OFF for other flights! at the end of the month you'll get a maximum of 16 to 18 days!!! for 120 block hours !!no more 23 like before JFK started!
IN Conclusion, very good for the Meals Allowances!! but on the other hand you'll give it back to the compagny by flying more!!!

Could someone please guide me as to what sort of images they require you to post with your online application.
Also what in the tests, what sort of questions did they ask, as Ive heard they ask logic, math and things like that.
Any info is really appreciated.
Thanks

Does anyone know what is the maximum flying hours avail in one month at Etihad?
Also are the rosters assigned?
Do you bid?
I'm kinda shocked their invite interviews only on the 18th, they've been calling people from 4 years back apparently... are they that desperate? Is there really that many people leaving EY?!

You didn't answer my questions. How about the people who dislike working for EY state their commentary on why its so horrible, why people want to leave, etc. It kinda doesn't impress me that people are just making general statements.
Also does someone have the answers to my questions:

Well, I must agree with some of the comments here regarding new salary scheme.
For example, if u r doing a double sector, u come in the morning from one flight and than in the evening u have another, but u r paid only 210 AED as this is your duty day, and that is not fair!
Than, another question: what will do people who r trained for 767, as mostly they r doing turnarounds! Their salary will be very bad at the end of the month! People in OCC should make rosters on a fair basis, so everybody could have a mix of layovers and turnarounds.
The crew who r doing JFK still can not see any big improvment, as the whole flight will bring them around 800 AED. In EK, only for flying hrs they get around 1400 AED (no allowances included, economy class)
I've heard they already chose Cabin Seniors, and if that is true that's not fair either. I mean, I haven't seen any adds for this position, which in other companies people announce. So, my question is what was the criteria for this job position ?!?!?
As for the meal allowances, this is a good move, but let's see our salary slips at the end of the month, and than we can discuss more.

Cabin senior position
I'm agree with you EYTRUTH!!!
if you want to apply for Cabin Senior, they are going to do a difference between the crew who had a previous experience as cabin crew and the ones who joined EY without previous experience!
you can apply after 18 months in EY with Flying experience
you can apply after 24 months in EY without Flying experience.
It's not fair because people are doing "galley operator" in Coral Zone since a year or more without previous experience, are doing a very good job. They were already "cabin senior" but without the salary.
And now this ST...D manager cabin crew wants to change everything without consideration for the crew!
who are flying like MONKEYS
crew with flying experience doesn't mean very good "cabin senior" the most important is "management skills".
Another crazy new rule!!! if you want to apply for Cabin Manager you'll have to work for 2 YEARS as Cabin Senior.
At EK 10 months in economy class, 6 months in Business class and then you can apply "FAST TRACK SFS" (cabin senior in EY) finally after 1 YEAR as SFS you can apply for PURSER (Cabin Manager in EY).
In conclusion! EY will make some crew unhappy and frustrated because they were doing the job of CABIN SENIOR without the salary for more than year and due to the new conditions "they are going back in the cabin" or "resign for EK" they are "MOST WELCOME AT EK"

this is so funny !
Even after the salaries being increased people still complain .Come on people , cheer up and be happy!
If you hate the job , quit!!!!!
EY is a good company to work for ....if you want to work for a huge airline then go for EK ..but there you will just be a staff number , nothing else !
EY is more like a big family , you know everyone and it is nice .

EY management ??? I am sorry but I am not at all ..I am a crew , a simple crew and happy to work in EY .Yes there are some of us happy !
I know lots of crew are leaving EY for EK and lots of crew already working in EK want to resign also ...
As a fact , there are people resigning everywhere !
I just feel that if you guys are ONLY cabin crew for the money , then it wont work out. As far as i am concerned , I could easily find an office job with less stress for the same salary in my own country ....but the thing is that ,I have always wanted to be a crew .
Cabin crew is not always a glamorous job and EY has its own downsides , no doubt about it . But I believe , if you weigh good and bad sides , then you end up having much more positives ones . But I believe , it is only a matter of attitude .If you want to be pessimist , everything will be bad and dark ...if you choose to be happy , then you will enjoy the job , even in EY
Happy flying everyone
