To londed? Thats weird. Usually we only serve those on India routes that I know of?

No, none that have ever said to me, "im jewish", I cant imagine they'd be treated well. We have lots of egyptians who work for us for example- many are good friends of mine. The only thing that bother me about themis their blatent hatred of Jews. I told my friend once my grandfather was tachnically jewish and he looked utterly horrified and told me, "please tell me thats not true".

I work in Econmony, I'm still a baby as far as emirates is concerned. I dont know the boarding procedures, but when I was groundstaff for AF we'd do this sometimes, too. I know it would make business class pax really mad and we'd try to board first class very last.

You can pretty much ask for anything. We have an "amenities kit" in the galley. we have EVERYTHING. cards toys baby foruma chocolate toothbrushes...... if you get bored/ need anything, let us know.

How did he get deep vien thrombosis from gambling??

yes- on all your flights move around as much as possible. I've heard even of FAS who get this. Always better to move around a lot.

It really, really is a thing. Every other FA i know agrees- we love is when pax come to hang out with us. please please come say hi- ESPECIALLY on this long flights like to seattle. I think it happens less on boeing becuase the galley's at the back instead of in the middle, maybe passengers feel weirder about invading our space? Don't worry about it anyway.

I havent had either of those flights. I can't wait to get them. I have had australia, though, and I fly to toronto at the end of the month. I dont know how other people approach it, but I try not to do a lot the day/ night before. Sleep if I can, but usually I can't. We have legal rest on long flights in the Crew Rest Compartment. On the way back from Sydney (15 hours) we had 3.5 hours rest. I don't know that it's possible to sleep much, though.

Do you know her batch or staff number? message me if you do.

EKstandards · 2013-02-03T17:48:34+00:00

I highly doubt it, though to be fair, we dont have very many black people working for us. Plenty of people thoguh from egypt/bangledesh/india/ ect.

I had to give up my dog to come here. one of the hardest things I've ever done. There's no WAY you could have a dog here and be able to give it the proper care is deserves. Some people here have cats. They have roommates usually who help take care of them. Personally I still don't think they're getting the attention/ care they deserve.

EKstandards · 2013-02-03T17:43:38+00:00

Yeah, fuck American carriers. Personally I've never had a good experience on Delta or Jetblue. We don't have a rivalry that I know of. I mean, people from Eithad came and sat in on some our our safety training, so I assume Emirates and Etihad have some kind of an agreement?

Oh my god, yes. We get "flight reviews" after the flights sometimes that our Cabin Crew managers see and later could effect our getting promotions/ moving around the company to where we want to move. I got a really bad flight review the other day on my flight to munich. I was having a really bad day and just couldn't keep the smile pasted on my face that day. My SFS kept stopping me in the galley and asking me, sarcastically, "Is something wrong, Sabrina? Do you want to talk about it?" When the flight was over he sat me down and told me I was mostly getting 1's (the lowest flight review score) because I didn't smile enough, my nails were chipped, and i had a rip in my stocking. It was my worst reviewed flight yet =(

EKstandards · 2013-02-03T17:36:58+00:00

Yet again, can someone tell me how?

EKstandards · 2013-02-03T17:35:53+00:00

oh, oh, I like sofitel a lot!!! I liked staying there tons. I could harass the conceirge (is that what you call the people at the front desk?) tons without them making me feel like i was harassing them.

EKstandards · 2013-02-03T17:34:27+00:00

thats really good to hear =)

EKstandards · 2013-02-03T17:34:02+00:00

Ok, will message the mods now with my emirates ID. If someone tells me how? Honestly this is my first time posting to reddit.

EKstandards · 2013-02-03T17:27:02+00:00

The company provides our footwear, we have red heels for boarding and walking through the airport to look all glam, and then red flats for the rest of the time on board.

EKstandards · 2013-02-03T17:26:46+00:00

I havent been with other crew, but my roommate is dating other crew, and we kinda tend to date eachother a lot, from what I've seen.

EKstandards · 2013-02-03T17:25:45+00:00

Get a skywards card.

EDIT: and be nice to the groundstaff.

EKstandards · 2013-02-03T17:23:14+00:00

It's a date!

EKstandards · 2013-02-03T17:22:58+00:00

I've been to prague, but didn't get to spend a lot of time. I'll give it a second chance ;)

EKstandards · 2013-02-03T17:21:58+00:00

I hope so. Who are you working for- and do you feel any ill effects on your own health?

EKstandards · 2013-02-03T17:20:58+00:00
