Stef
Join the 12-OCT gang !!!
I think we already have an idea of the whole team. I think its just gonna be a kinda
HEyyyy its you SkyGal
Heyy whassup CCEmiratesMad
Oh its you XYZ....
What you think guys??? Interesting.
Oh by the way, i got a slight bad news regarding my health. I have been drinking lately and for some reason am suffering from an allergy from some whisky and got like pimples all over my hands.
Had 2 xtra more injections after those i had for the vaccinations. And am still having those blooody things all over my palm and hand. It is gradually going away.
Am afraid if it does not go before 12-OCT. Dunno what the clinic/medics over there in DXB gonna say about that!
NEver ever had any kind of allergy, the first and it is i think the worst!
Anyway ...

...whereas me, I am all laid back, medicals etc done. No more pokey sharp things in me, until I get to Dubai! Yikes!
I am starting to get bags under my eyes
. Must have sleep
Guys, I dont know if I will be in the same batch as yous, as I am arriving on the 13th? Please, for the love of God, be in the same batch as me. You need to wear a big badge that says "PPRUNE MEMBER: EKRAVIN"
Seriously, don't mess yourself up, you dont wanna get chucked back on a plane back to your home country!
P.S: Made friend with a Purser/Trainer who teachers Secruity to new crew on the 3 week @ EK College. Hmmm, Insider Info...

many thanks for your super-speedy response.
moreover:
5) are shoes also provided?
6) are we required to wear underwear (some sort of male's vest or white t-shirt) beneath our shirt/uniform? --> coming from a tropical country and wore uniform during my school and uni time (14 years!), we were advised to wear those in order to absorb sweat and maintain healthy skin, which somewhat has became a part of uniform.
thanks once again for your response.

Good luck to all of you.

Yes, males get one pair; girls get two cause they get the cabin shoes too.

just a white t-shirt under the shirt. yes, it will absorbe some sweat, but at 3pm in june in an airbus that has been on ground for hours, it is the same as wearing nothing hehehe.
no short-sleeve shirts unfortunately
