Tattoos & Emirates. Flash Update. The Red Polo Case.

A number of alarming emails have been sent to me in the past week or so concerning Tattoos and the new Training guidelines recently introduced and sent out to the new joiners. The new guidelines for personal grooming include a strict policy on Tattoos, piercings and Henna.
Recently, the training department has redesigned the whole starter [...]

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 [...]

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…

CDG who? CDG what ?

Hey just landed in Dub-Dub after an eventful layover in Paaarrrreee, my hometown. Started of in briefing where the crew was bubbling up their 24h stay in the capital of love. All smiles they were ! It’s crazy to realise that you lived and come from a town that everyone knows, that everyone wants to [...]

Cabin Crew prepare dancefloor for arrival

OOhhhhh dear. Another night, another nightclub. It’s way too cheap here to not go out. Especially when Emirates pays for our drinks, that’s when it gets even better. Plan B (the club in Wafi City) was our destination tonight, and boy did it rock. DJ played some good ol’ tunes mixed with some commercial goodness. [...]

I, the couch potato.

Been at home for three days now, doing pretty much nothing but reading blogs, buying a TV, eating like a pig, drinking unlawful sodas and being a coutch potato and soaking up the sun every now and then. To my surprise, many fellow Emirates Flight Attendants are writting their experience on blogs. All of them [...]

WeeeeHoooo I’m done with training !

Well, it has been exactly 6 weeks since a whole batch of us started Emirates Aviation College Training. Six weeks of non-stop learning and having a laugh every single day. Six weeks of meeting & getting to know new people. Six weeks of learning thousands of lines of procedures, apply them. Six weeks of continuous [...]

Graduation, suppy flights

Hey ya’ll.
IMPORTANT INFO : My roster is published every month, you can view it on the left hand side of the webpage. It might change here and there according to scheduling. But generally speaking it will remain the same. It just for those in desperate need of accurate information (I’m thinking of you Dad !!) [...]

360° Club / First Aid is OOOOVVVVEEEERRRR !

It was time for us to let ourselves go. After last week’s short weekend we decided to have it the good way this week ! Headed to a well known club here called 360° and damn it was good ! Last week alone our least favourite cheap French DJ David Guetta played a set there. [...]

Medically Shocked / C.R.E.A.M. / Consolers Of The Lonely

Alright. You’re probably wondering why the title of this blog post contains the Acronym C.R.E.A.M.. Well, I’ve been browsing through many useless, senseless pages of the world wide waste and stumbled across this “Best HipHop/Rap Acronyms to date” and thought this deserved some attention. I’d never been aware until now of these acronyms and to [...]

I am your faaaaatherrr…

Pictures, more pictures NO WORDS !

IKEA, taxis, last day of SEP.

As Dubai is quite young, meaning it sprung up at a very rapid pace. The sightseeing here is quasi-inexistant (old town Dubai is supposed to be a definite tick on your list, as well as the museum). On the other hand one can, if feeling particularly bored or lonely, visit the many malls scattered [...]

Sun, Shades & Sex Appeal.

Here are some pictures I gathered from other batchmates. Don’t we look zzzzzzexxxxy ?! I am one lucky fella ! Otherwise, we have a big test tomorrow on General Safety, Loose Emergency Equipment and Drills. Have been studying this evening, around 2 hours sharp. I’m in good condition. Heating salads Mum, you should be proud [...]

SEP training with Emirates. Ditching.

THERE WILL NOT BE ANY PHOTOS OF THE DITCHING AS WE TRAIN IN A RESTRICTED AREA WITHIN THE COLLEGE. AND BECAUSE MY CAMERA IS NOT WATERPROOF. SORRY !
We got wet today ! Completely drenched. Today was our chance to prove we could correctly board the slide/raft from sea. Meaning if you happen to find yourself [...]
