1000 COMMENTS : we have a winner ! Thank you all !

Hey! It’s been tremendous. Almost two years ago I started this whole thingy. Just posting for my friends and family. Keeping them updated with the whole recruitment process and how I managed to join Emirates Airline as a Cabin Crew. Now, look at it today… I wouldn’t of thought a second I would be writing [...]

Common Flight Attendant problems : Layover Blues.

I’ve experienced such state a few times already. Doing circles in my hotel room like a goldfish in bowl. As it might sound funny from the outside, it isn’t for the one living it. Living this fast paced life can lead to all sorts of different behaviors and moods you never thought you’d go through. [...]

May Roster detailed… I heart Crew Schedz!

So you’ve probably guessed where I’ll be heading in May ! I didn’t expect much from Crew Scheduling this month as I was supposed to get a whole long month of reserve, homecalls and airport standby. None of that, nada, nicht, rien !! I got a full fledged roster with some nice layovers in tow [...]

Airboy Does TWITTER, and likes it…

[UPDATE] : We have introduced a sleak new feature. Fellow blog owners will be happy ! Whenever a blogger from the blogroll updates his/her own blog, the blogroll on Airboy will display the latest entry and put it on top of the pile. So everyone gets a fair chance at sucking some of my visitors [...]

Barbie BOOTCAMP

It comes round every 10 months. It’s a right pain for your brain. But pain that is necessary if you want to earn money. Because without, well, you’re screwed.

Before I go anywhere else with what a recurrent training in Safety & Emergency Procedures (SEP) is actually about, I must give credit to Heather Poole for [...]

THANK YOU readers…

I think it was time for me to thank my readers. Without visitors and growing popularity this blog wouldn’t exist or last as long. 366 blog entries later, I’m still here enjoying sharing some valuable information, my rants, some cool music and my cheap looking videos. I love maintaining websites as you may discovered. But [...]

DOWNLOADABLES #75 / Daft Diana – Massive Fear – Justice – Sharon Jones

You spin me right round with all your requests people ! I’ve been on the look out for killer mashups lately and I think I have found some pretty cool material for your bored ears. I know that it has been a while since I uploaded some stuff too, please forgive me. Today’s line up [...]

I looooooooooooove my job!

90% of the world think we get paid “big” bucks to piss people off. 90% of the time, air travellers will have misconceptions about our job description. And usually, they’re absolutely wrong. Take the Bombay I did today. 90% percent of the passengers I welcomed onboard today had grim faces due certainly to the lack [...]

Cabin Crew video on Emirates Website : my ab-initio !

Was looking at the new www.emiratesgroupcareers.com website and got a shock when I launched the media player and saw my fellow batchmates in there. I’m even hiding in the video… try to spot me ! That brings back a few good memories…

What went down in Paname (slang for Paris) + VIDEO

I apologize for the lateness of this post but priorities remain priorities and things will never change : ie, blogging about me getting lost in a random part of Dubai seemed much more entertaining than my Parisian hols…Anyway… I came back from Paris, France from my little 8 day break just over a week ago [...]

How I got lost in Al Barsha…

Today was filled with exciting new stuff I had to do. I went to visit the newly finished (not quite in fact) TECOM building which will hold the future White and Blue Building stranded. By the end of May, as previously mentioned, we will have to evacuate these two buildings and relocate. So they held [...]

The end of an era

Bad news always comes in threes. I’ll skip the first two for now and fast forward to the latest I will have to deal with. And it’s not a little task considering the department I will have to communicate with and the obstacles I will have to overcome.
By 31st of May 2009, I will have [...]

In Paaaareeeeee for 8 days

Hey peeps. I’ve safely landed in Paris after some crosswinds made the approach into CDG a little more challenging for our Flight Crew. We landed with a beautiful sunset, clear skies and just the perfect spring time here. The flight over was real nice although I must say I forgot how long an hour could [...]
