touching alcohol
I dont actually understand the big deal of touching alcohol, when physically you dont touch it. You are just handling the bottle it is in, at the end of the day emirates is a very multi national carrier, and comprimises need to be made to deliver the best customer service. Policies and religion are rigid and flexibility to some extent is a big assett to being a flight attendant. Its like a catholic serving a muslim meal no big deal.

Thanks for your comments. It's not such a big deal for me, its just I'm Muslim, and I have been taught not to deal alcohol blah blah, but I don't mind serving it. I guess for some things you just have to compromise. Emirates, acknowledge this as on Open Day they mentioned that anyone who is Muslim and is not "conformtable" or likewise, tick No. Therefore I did, and was honest. I am flexible, I am willing to give up anything as I and the rest of us are giving up our 'lives' basically, home country,families,lifestyle etc. You get what I mean? This job meant and still means lots to me, and I want to spend my whole career with EK! Thanks anyways.

Cabin Crew Visa
when r u starting CCEmirates?
A general question to anyone: What is the type of visa or travelling docs we as Cabin Crew have while travelling. I mean any kind of special visa for CC ?
I understand that we have a work permit/visa for 3 yrs? How about entering and leaving the rest of the countries we gonna be travelling?
Could be stupid question for some! Just curious.

ek ravin: As of yet, I was just told October is the start month, and she(recruitment officer) mentioned that no specific date has been specified, for x reason??
So I think that I will call up and tell them that I want 5 oct. When your flyout date?
I am thinking the same q. as you... what visa/permit do we carry as CC? and like CC (ek) travel round the world,would you need specific visas?
Thanks
Da-did-um!
(**P.S: Just to solve some confusion from this site and CC.COM, I,ccmad on pprune, have an account on cc.com but used by my cousin so dont get me confused with 'mahn' there! Lol, my cousin wants Ek badly! *I sense jealousy**)

EmiratesCCMAd/ikoysss,
I recieved an email from EK this morning saying that my start date was changed from the 14th to the 28th `cause of the UAE visa was not issued yet. So I decided to call them and by the time they picked up the phone my visa had arrived!
The problem right now is that they are not able to confirm my e-ticket and I have to wait until tomorrow to see if they can somehow book me to JFK on thursday...
If unable to confirm, they`ll have me flying out to DXB on the 20th (which is much better than the 28th!!!)
Will keep you posted!
