Singapore Airlines employ male cabin crew?
Is it true Singapore Airlines employ male cabin crew who are not Singaporeans? A girl on the internet claims this!
If they do, does anyone know what nationalities they employ and what the requirements are?
Thank you!

Sorry cyberkitty,
I know for a fact that SIA have employed caucasian crew (well at least 1 anyway), I have met her going through immigration. We were so suprised at this sight as we thought SIA only employed Singaporean and Malay also. After consulting some SIA crew I know I found out that she is infact caucasian but is also a Singaporean citizen, and stunning might I add!! I think she may be the only one though.
And yes, the males are confined to the galley positions. You couldn't possibly allow the girls to work in a galley with those open flip flops they wear (or do they change inflight).

adde.....the interview is conduct in their respective countries. no application, just walk in. you can apply as many time as you want, no restriction unlike other airlines whereby you had to wait 6 mths before you can re-apply with them.

I'm a flight attendent for Singapore Airlines so I can tell you this.
For males, SIA only employs Singapore citizens or Singapore Permanent Residents.
For females, we do employ Singaporeans, Malaysians, Japanese, Indonesians, Indians, Chinese and Koreans.
The girl that one of the poster mentioned, I've got a strong feeling she's Junita Simon's sister from the description given. I can't remember her name though. Junita Simon is a model in Singapore. Their father, Anil Simon is a inflight supervisor with SIA as well.
SIA do employ part-Asians who are Singapore citizens or permanent residents. As Singapore is a multi-racial country, we've got many mixed marriages here. The most important thing they look out for when employing people of mixed parentage is that they must still look Asian and their slang should preferably be not too strong.
Hope this helps!
