HI DMED

March the 10th course is for WW. It's disappointing t say the least the response you got from BA, considering that they say that they call ppl strictly in order of assessment dates....however if what you have been told this morning is correct I shouldn't worry. They normally don't release any infos whatsoever lately (regarding list etc)....Just be a bit more patient...it's the last step for you....while for the rest of us I wonder if they will be running other EFcourses in March after this one .....or they will concentrate just on WW and LGW...lets see.

The day is not over yet...:ok:....and there's also next week...

Thanks
 

thanks a lot for your support kikko.
knowing march the 10th is a ww course relieves me a bit...

I´ll have to wait , what else can i do?

LHR WW Temp
 

I begin on December 17th and am swatting on Insight at the moment. Does anyone know if there is much focus on the capital cities/currencies?

Thanks:)

Lhr WW
 

Thanks Spoon82,

My interview date was the 9th October........I feel so bad for all those who have been waiting for EF since May...As I know how hard it is. Hang in there guys I'm sure it won't be long now xxx

EF
 

Guys, Im sure there will be more courses. Re which list they are going according to, its just anybody's guess. I can imagine what Dmed is going through. I am very happy and felt such a huge relief yesterday. It was as if something we have been fighting for and now we have the outcome. Im also disappointed that they have put out one new date only. We have been in this together all along. One thing for sure, they always allow a week or a bit more to put out the next course date. So, dont despair. Its just a matter of days or a week or two before you will hear from them. All the best.

Guys
Anyone got any news or know when EF LHR will be recruiting again?

To: LHREF - Hold Pool with course dates and swimmers
 

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL OF YOU HOLD POOLERS WITH A COURSE DATE !!! :) I'm really happy for you, by the time you start your course on 3rd MAR, I will have finished mine on 29th FEB so hope to meet you guys up in the AIR.

As for those still swimming, DMED, AZZURI, KIKKO, etc.... Please hang in there and think positive always. You have waited this long which is admirable. I know its hard but I firmly believe that you will be home dry soon. My fingers are still crossed.

MERRY XMAS TO YOU ALL!!!

DAWN :)

My friend who had interview in May has got a start date for march 2008 and she was called today.

Lhr Ef
 

Do you think they'll call as many people as possible before Christmas if they have the course dates ready? Or is that just me being REALLY optimistic?

Also does anyone know when the last interview date was for EF, just wondering how many of us are left swimming, (my fingers are starting to wrinkle up from the cold!)

Lhr Ef
 

Hi Jenny,

I know that they held interviews at least until 31st of May (maybe beyond that but I am not sure).
It would be nice if they let us all know before Christmas....It all depends on how many courses BA has already planned etc.
Personally I think it's a bit optimistic to think that we all get a course date before Christmas.....but you never know ...

Lhr Ef

EF...3rd March 2008
 

Well done Dan!! I am very relieved you got it in the end. Could not understand why they left you out in the first place!! All this thing about high scores etc..I think its non-sense especially at this stage of waiting in the holding pool. Anyway, glad to know I will see someone I already know there and a few of you I got to know on here. Im sure the rest of you will hear very very soon.

apparently, they called me last week. I saw an english number missed call in my phone last week but when i tried to call it said the number did not exist. They did not leave any message in my voicemail either so i was not able to return the call... but they did call again :)

See you the 3rd of march! :)

Medical questionnaire..
 

Does anyone know if one has to send the medical questionnaire as soon as possible or wait for a bit before sending off? I got all the attachments already since last Friday. Start date is 3 March 2008. Thanks.

Happy
 

I am so excited ! I will be staying at a friends in clapham for teh whole 6 weeks. So will fly in from France dirctly early on a monday morning to T4 and then back to france on a Friday night !!! Tough going but well worth it !!! Cant believe three of us will all be on the same course!!

Life after cranebank
 

Well guys and girls have just finished my six weeks training and am now on line in SFO after my first sector and it was great for all of you waiting to start good luck its a long course but well worth it in the end......if anyone wants to ask any question send me a pm but bear in mind i am online so may take a while to reply

Jarvis

Hi Londonphillou,

Glad to hear that we will be flying together at sone point. And congrats to the rest that got the call.

I sent off medical about 3 weeks after getting all the info. I assume that there is no great hurry but better to get the admin sorted anyway. Uniform fitting is also booked for 8th january, it is best to get that sorted straight away since they are heavily booked up.

Hope everybody has a lovely christmas...:)

Anna
 

Hey Anna - I am sooooo excited too! I have friends that I could stay with in Balham (which is not far from Clapham) But not sure if the commute may be a little far each day....can anybody advise as I am not overly familiar with that area.

Thanks xxx

pls help
 

Hello,

I am rather confused when it comes to education requirements for the various airlines. On the BA website it says secondary education/sixth form. When I look up 6th form it seems as its equivalent to A-levels, is this true?? An secondary education seems to be like GCSE... its confusing.. So the way I see it Virgin atlantic require less schooling tha BA and many others...

Could someone please clarify what the requirements are?
Is Secondary education the same as A-levels and higschool?

Thanks.

Hi Missydk
The only educational requirements I see that is needed for BA for cabin crew is GCSE Maths and English. These are the exams you take when you are around 16 years old. You then do A levels after this. I guess when they say they want secondary level of education it means GCSE's.
Hope this helps...

who is on March 3rd course?
 

Hello, apart from Londonphilou and me who else is on the course of March the 3rd? It would be great to know people in advance...

(Leave a private message with your msn / mail so we can all get in touch)

Happy X-mas !
