Hi, All trainees
 

I am off to Abu Dhabi this Sat. So excited about new life.
Can anyone tell me about accommodation during the training ?
Is that temporary only for training ?
Are you guys sharing the bedroom or having your own room ?
I know I can find out in a few days...
Anyway I am looking forward to seeing everyone there.
We can be goooooooooood friends.
See you very soon.

you have your own bedroom.. in one unit there's 3 room..the masters have his own toilet while the two others will share.. im here in the guest house, they said that this is permanent.. but there are other apartments which is better than what i have.. nwei,youll be provided with your first needs also.. like towels,soap,frying pan,cereals for breakfast and etc.. just dont forget to change currency when you reach the airport so you have money to use the next day,because i forgot to do so.. haha!! so,gudluck and see you here..:D

I'm so angry because other people who are suppose to get a training this Sun. got the flight tickets yesterday but me.

I expected that they would let met know whether I start or not this Sun.
However, I never had any calls from them. I rang them up everytime and got the information, not even once!!!

I know they are so busy and they can't control for VISA.
At least they should have called and told me to wait for another week or else:ugh:
sigh...

Hey...I know you are angry. I was too until I got the ticket this morning.
Would you like me to give you Ryan's mobile ?
When he e-mailed me he gave me his mobile number.
I will send you. Hopefully it will help.
Hope see you tomorrow.

passports (?)
 

hi i just have a little bit of a concern that has ben rought up to me by a few family members.

i know its mandatory to hand in your passports to your employers in the middle east. i jus have a few questions regarding this.

1)is there a general rule or regulations regarding employers/employees and the seizement of passports? (maybe some kind of rule to assure protection of employees etc?

2)is this rule going to be stated in any of the eployment contracts?

3)how does it work for cabin crews? since we would probabl be needing our passports to travel right?

please any info would do!

I can only speak from own experience: i live in bahrain, but am belgian. According to belgian law, it is illegal here for an employer to take my passport, since my passport is not my own property.
It is the property of the belgian government. So that would be stealing form them.
Off course, a lot of employers just seem to ignore that;
my employer also threathened once to take my passport, but i just spelt out my rights, and they came to senses.
What is stated in the labour law about that will depend from country to country I guess

Does anyone know what kind of clothes everyone wears while training.

I am assuming business attire, but considering how hot it is, are we expected to wear suits?

It would be great if someone could reply as I have absolutely no idea what to pack.

THank you!!

You don't have to wear a suit. If you want to by all means but you will be fine in pants/skirts and a business shirt or smart top
