evening all!
when i did my course I went out on the thursday until the following friday. You get the first weekend off in Ams from what I remmeber. So you are there just over a week to start. You will mainly need casuals, as you are normally issued your uniform on the first day, and you wear it for most of the course. Top tip is to pack your own iron-the ones in the rooms are rubbish and all your shirts blouses etc are creased to hell from being packaged. Also you normally get a crew suitcase issued at the same time. Which is huge. What else can I tell you? Hmm breakfast is included and it's quite lekker and also you get 30 euros perday credited to your room account for food/drinks. plus you get a 20% discount on food a bevs, so you shouldn't end up too out of pocket.
If you have any more questions then please ask and i'll try my best to answer them. Good luck all. You'll love it.

Hi kate, I worked for Cityhopper for quite a few years and as long as you don't mind night stops and early starts you will be fine. You will also be working with crew from Holland,sometimes you will be the only Brit, so brush up on your Dutch language! The people from Norwich base are lovely and I still keep in touch, it is like a big family.
Along with another ex Cityhopper collegue, I have started a website for wanabee cabin crew offerring an application fom service and mock interview event, it is really exciting, and just shows how you don't have to leave the business even when you leave the business! Anyway, you don't need that because you are in, well done!
Good luck and Enjoy it!
