Not getting your meal choice ? Here’s how to…

Have you ever wondered why we don’t have your preferred choice when it comes to meals on-board ? Have your ever wondered why you’re the one not getting the tasty Chicken Curry while others feast on it ? Have you ever wondered why your Flight Attendant has absolutely nothing to do with the catering, hence [...]

It’s Bollywood Month for Airboy…

Hey all, since I’ll be jetting to India on numerous occasions this month I thought I could do with some cultural input from ya’ll. I have this awesomeness of a tune to share first of all (click link to download, click play to listen). The song was composed by film composer A.R. Rahman, written by [...]

Dust Eater / BrotherOfSodwee in AUS + more

The amount of dust a balcony can accumulate is beyond me. At the end of the day, if the only purpose of having balconies in Dubai is to clean them twice a week, you’re better of not having one at all. Or have some kind of perch that does not require any kind of cleaning [...]

Your questions answered : Jase writes in… BIDDING REVEALED

Got this email from Jase the other day and thought I would share with the masses. Also on the FAQ, I’m working on the glitches, I know it doesn’t work. Hopefully have it back soon…

Airboy does Hong Kong… in the very front…

I’d do Hong Kong anytime. Easy pax, good hours and the destination is amazing. I’m writting to you tonight from my hotel room nearby the runway. We just got here and had to share what I have just experienced. But before that I need to share some unusual stuff that happened before I spent the [...]

So far, So Good. Or supposedly. TWO NEW LAVIATORS. DL#81.

Geeez, where do I start ?! It’s seems like a decade since I blogged something. Time just flies by so quickly. Been super busy and super tired. Since I last updated the blog I went to Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia), Tripoli (Libya), Tunis (Tunisia), Chennai (India) and heading to my beloved monthly Bombay/Mumbai very soon. Hey [...]

DOWNLOADABLES #80. Chromeo / Fancy Footwork. Update on my move…

Ever since Oz bluetoothed this track to me yesterday, I haven’t stopped playing it. It’s desperately catchy, insanely groovy and the 80’s synth-electro-rock-pop sound of the whole deal makes me wanna… boogie.
Chromeo is a Montreal based electrofunk duo whose music is described as “a shameless return to the glistening, sex-saturated synth-pop which ruled the eighties.”
The [...]

HOTEL GOSSIP. WTFML. TWO NEW LAVIATORS

Hey guys. I’m relieved I got off this return flight alive. And that is being honest. I spent the past 8 hours walking up and down the aisles with absolutely not a second for myself and my poor little weak legs. I did not sit once in 8 hours. That’s how bad the flight was.
It [...]

Airboy does New York & Aquaventure in Dubai

Ohh man, where do I start ? This was to be a reserve month with unknown destination building up to a shitty roster. But faith had it differently. I was bound for New York, the Big Apple, The Center Of The World. I was desperate to go. I packed everything I needed : camera, laptop, [...]

Airboy does Shanghai #2 + VIDEO

I haven’t been on a layover for a hell a long time and going to CBC with a cargo suitcase actually felt good. We were bound for Shanghai in China. The flight over was busy as ever and lasted around 8 hours (chock to chock). I was happy after my string of turnarounds to finally [...]

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 [...]

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…

Quintessential Airboy. Fly FIRST CLASS with me !

After some heated conflicts between my left and right brain. Both agreed and came to a decision. A decision to make a special section of this website dedicated only to frequent readers/flyers. If you’re a regular here, this will interest you the most. Even more so if you’re already in the aviation industry (in other [...]

DOWNLOADABLES #74 / Tonite Only – City rooftop, in your tanktop, rainbow stylin’

OOOhhh God, I haven’t posted any tracks in a long time ! Well, no more waiting folks, I have FOUR KILLER TUNES to share with you today. It’s raining here in Dubai, yesterday we saw hail smashing down our dirty windows and gust winds slashing lightweight kids away from their mothers… Today my habibis your [...]
