Question Cairns base

Hi guys,

There is a rumour doing the rounds that Emirates is opening up a base in Cairns. Does anyone know anything about this?

Thanks

sorry but no...
if ek were to open a new destination in oz it would be adelaide, but the current agreement ek has only allows them 49 flights a week, therefore to open a new destination they would have to bring down a frequency on another station (and currently all of them are doing quiet well, with good loads on the trans-tasman sectors).
i know the agreement was revised recently, any news on that?

Resignation Letter

My understanding was that the reason that they need the resignation letter was so that they could process the UAE residence visa, as for EK to be your sponsor in the country you cannot be employed by anyone else.

When I got my letter, I asked to have it done on the company letterhead, and they stamped it for me, it just said how long I had worked there and when I terminated my employment. But then again I was a casual so didn't have the worry of a payout over my head.

Hope this helps

Teeth

Hello all,

I'm a 23 year old male here in Manila, Philippines aspiring to be a cabin crew member for Emirates. I was wondering how strict Emirates is when it comes to teeth; I have complete and healthy teeth however the four front teeth in the bottom row are misaligned. Would this disqualify me for assesment or lessen my chances of being accepted? Thanks!

To all you guys out here worrying about your teeth not being totally perfect: This is not a issue here on EK!! As long as it doesn't make you look like a freak, please do not worry!!!! Emirates have normal looking crew, and not so good looking and some good looking.. Getting the the job is all about your personality!! Please don't let this built up image about EK being all about looks fool you guys, it's not like that!

Be confident and don't try to hide your smile at the interviews

i really can't say what the Emirates recruiters are looking for. but in my observation, they want you to be comfortable and confident (or at least appear confident) during the whole process.

your from the Philippines too right? The resignation acceptance letter may be the certificate of employment (COE) which states how long you were with the company.

You will also receive a specimen sample from EK once they send you the forms thru ur email.

Medical Smear Test Help!

Hi all,

I've just submitted all my Medical info and Xrays etc to Dubai today via email. Have a question though as there is one thing which is worrying me.
I had my first smear test about 4 years ago where they found Mild Dysklarosis (spelt something like that) which is basically mildly abnormal cells. I was referred to my local NHS Hospital's Coloscopy clinic who I've seen every 6 months for a test, my last smear in December 2006 came back with clear results (third one in a row that came back clear) so the letter I have submitted to Dubai states this:

I have recently rec the result of the smear test you had taken in the Coloscopy Clinic and am happy to report that this has come back negative (yay). You are therefore discharged back to your GP where you will require two more smears at yearly intervals. If these are both negative you can then return to your routine screening under the NHS Cervical Smear Programme (which I think is every 3 years)

Is this likely to be a problem? Arrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Thanks
Ell J

Photos

Hey Jess,

You better find a nice restaurant to have dinner at when I get to DXB!

____________________________________________________________ _

Jess and Ell J,

Regarding the final addional 24 photos requested, I have taken all of them in skyblue background (3.5x4.5cms which is standard passport size). I know it says four of them have to be 3x3.5 cms (an odd size), so I reckon I will just bring a pair of good scissors with me!

I am not sure if perhaps the 4 photos (3x3,5 cms) are the ones for the R-type U.S. visa. I remember those were the exact same specifications when I had my US visa renewed last year.

FlyRules

PS: Do these 24 photos also have to be showing off your teeth?

Can't Wait My Dear.

About The Photos, I Am Scratching My Head Here About The Unusual Size, U Probably Right, They Probably Need Them For Us Visas Which I Already Have For Work And Tourist.
Let Me Know If You Get Any News About The Odd Size Photos.

Don't Worry So Much About Your Resignation Letter. You Won't Get Into Trouble With Ek, Just Explain To Them. I Don't Have Release Letter Cos I Left Previous Company 3 Months Ago. I Explained To Them My Situation, They Were Fine With Me.
