I absolutely love these videos. Came up as recommended and now obsessed!!! I have always wanted to be a pilot, but start as cabin crew to rase funds and get to know airbuses ext... I hate the fact that they do not give free water to the staff! I was feeling sick mid flight once so they let me sit at the back of the plane in their seat with the air conditioning on me and free water even though we offered to pay plenty of times. If I knew they didn’t even get free water to staff i would have bought them all whatever they want! From what the Ryanair employees have to go through I have extra respect for all the airline staff!!! ♥️
Awesome! Glad you love them! It's a shame about the water. We fill our bottles from the crew room (from a machine - probably tap water) or just bring our own from home. It's great you were helped when feeling sick . Usually crew do their best to make the passengers as comfortable as possible. That would have been a kind gesture from you, but I am sure they would have said it is not necessary 🤗 I remember a friend was a passenger on my flight and instead of making her pay I just paid. I wish we could just give complementary snacks and drinks to the people we know personally - but no. Thanks for sharing dear. While working there I met someone who was doing Pilot training while working as a CC.
I absolutely love these videos!! It gives so much insight on the job!! In the future I hope to be cabin crew for Ryanair and get my home base, Dublin. Could you do a video on different experiences you might have had like delayed flights, mean crew, angry passengers and maybe some things about serving onboard. Thanks and keep up the amazing work on these videos!! ✈️
Hey James!! So happy you are finding these videos helpful. Okay I will try to tell a storytime about an incident that happened on board - look out for it. Yes hopefully you can get your base. It's always good to be able to work closer to home 😊
I love these videos! It kinda puts me off being ryanair crew but I feel like I know so much about how they operate and their aircraft that etc so I feel like I shouldn't put the knowledge to waste... I've always dreamt of living in France/ Portugal/ Italy / Spain and I speak French and Spanish fluent so I thought ryanair would be the perfect opportunity but idk 😔
@@TabithaLaker it has always been my dream job so I think I will try it out for a bit once I am 19/20 as hopefully it will give me a chance to travel someway, thank you for the advice :)
Hi Tabitha i am one of your new follower and i really love all of your Ryanair videos.i've been looking for videos like this about Ryanair. THANK YOU A LOTS.
I love your cabin crew videos there so informative Please keep them up :) ! Could you defo do a video that explains the pay because i hear so many different stories on the salary and it is scary ! Also I’ve heard that there is a lot of bullying within the company is this true ?
Thanks George! Yes I have already filmed a video about the salary. Please look out for it, because it should be up sometime this week. As for bullying. I actually experienced it a little and saw it happening to others. Some people are very power hungry. As disgraceful as behaviour is, I've heard it is pretty typical in the cabin crew profession. You musn't sink to their level otherwise it will ruin your day. That being said, you can also meet some great people who will make the exprience so much better! A good work day is determined by the crew you fly with, not the passengers. I hope my videos can help you make an informed decision. I a not trying to convince to become a CC or put anyone off - Just sharing my story and the reality of the job.
Heeey! Just had the interview and I’m waiting to be told if I’m in or not. Your videos are way more clarifying than the interview itself which lasted 15 min because the guy was in a hurry 😂. I asked some questions about the company and he LITERALLY said: if you need more information you can look for it on RUclips, there are plenty of ex-flight attendants sharing their experience. Hahahhah. Anyways, I’m curious to know if being part of Ryanair gives you the benefit of having a health insurance or sth similar. What about having braces? I don’t have them yet but I’ve been looking forward to starting the treatment and now I’m not sure if I should start it 😅 thanks again and take care ❤
sorry I don't remember everything I said in the video. Please rewatch if needed. There are multiple tests within the swimming test - one of which you need to inflate the life jacket after jumping in the pool.
Excellent video. I'm thinking about using Ryanair. I've been looking at the company and other consumer websites, and there seems to be a disagreement, as to what the company policy is, on using your cell phone to shoot videos onboard. Could you settle the disagreement, as to what the company policy is? Thank you.
Thank you! I think most aircrew don't like being filmed (I didn't) but you might be able to get away with recording yourself. I am not too clear on the policy.
Hi, Tabitha! I've been watching your videos and they are so helpful! I am in the middle of the recruitment for Ryanair cabin crew (quite slow, because pandemic) and I would like to ask you some questions. Do you know which cities hold training for cabin crew? And what about the base? Which ones are harder to get? Also, does Ryanair employ plus-sized ladies? Thank you so much!
Hi Joana! Glad you are finding them helpful. I only know of Bergamo, Madrid & Hahn for training centres. Usually the Spanish bases are harder to get - so I've heard. & yes Ryanair definitely does employ plus size ladies. I met many 😊
Hi queen , I had my interview 3 days ago online, they told that they would give me a response in about 2 weeks, do you think it's worth it , and were you able to save a bit of money from what they pay ?? Thanks 😊
I was able to save a little, but at the time I was also flying a lot between Berlin and London because I had to take driving lessons and pass my test, so that definitely had an impact on how much I could save from the salary. I hope by now you have gotten a reply by now 😊
Hey Anada, to be honest I don’t really know. I never heard anyone say they wanted to be based Dublin. It’s more about 1) having a clean record(no lates or no show) or 2) knowing someone in the company who can help you.
I really don't know. It depends on the conditions they have offered you. I have heard from new joiners that they are stating their preferred base and getting it but you should ask them for a more accurate answer. All the best to you!
I was in 2 minds cos my company lauda is closing so I applied for DAC Ryanair signed the contract and everything but I kinda regret it now, but I have been applying for other places but im 2 minds if I wanna go ryanair or take back my resignation lol😂
Hi Tabitha, I am applying job within this month. I am living in Turkey and I am not EU Passport. Do Ryanair really help with UK VISA Sponsorship? Thank you
Hey Rianti, You need to already have the work in the EU. It says this on most if not all of their job descriptions: "All candidates must hold a valid passport which allows unrestricted International travel.".
Hello Tabitha ! I'm applying for Ryanair and I sent a picture of me wearing trousers instead of a skirt. Do you think they can reject my application based on that ?
Hmm, I'm really not too sure because I didn't send a picture with my application. I gave them a picture on the assessment day. I think you should be okay, but please phone or email them to check. I think it's better you ask them so you can meet the exact requirements. All the very best! 😊
What is a base please? I’ve applied for Ryan air and the job was advertised as Manchester (which is local to me). Will I be made to relocate or will I go to Manchester every day to fly? xx
A base is the airport that you fly from/are based at. You need to live within 1 hours distance from it. You might be made to relocate somewhere else in the UK but hopefully you get Manchester.
@@NicolePalalani-n7y Only if they ask you to relocate to cover another base for a short period of time. They offered that opportunity to me, but I ended up not going.
No free travel, but you get to buy staff tickets. You can travel with those tickets in the jumpseat if a flight is fully booked. They are sometimes more expensive that standard customer tickets, but they are fully flexible.
@@TabithaLaker whaaaatt? So staff have to pay more for their ticket than normal customers? So did you get any discount if you were to book a flight with friends/family to go on holiday? Also what are the actual benefits of being cabin crew for Ryan air? What discounts did you get? Thanks so much!! ☺️
What the hell, that’s extremely sexist not allowing women to wear trousers and having to wear heals etc. 😯🤬 So retrogressive. At BA it wasn’t allowed to wear pants till last year either. Thanks for the exposing those issues 🤙🏻 Can you film a story time video at some point about Ryanair? 🤣
Yes I know! Thankfully I like skirts so I didn't have a big problem with it...but I still see the sexism. I think it is mostly for financial reasons that they do not give women the option of wearing trousers. Haha I'm sure I can find a story worthy of telling! At lease BA have made forward steps!
BA actually allowed trousers in 2016, but it should’ve been so much earlier. I think there’s quite a few places where Ryanair are pretty sexist from what I’ve heard :(
@@josephmiddleton1 Yes it should have been way sooner! They are very 'traditional' in some respects. I will talk about the grooming manual at some point.
I think so, but it must be tied back. This is something I do not quite remember the exact rules on, but I do remember seeing some men with long hair. No longer than past the nape.
Babe many things that you say is not true... everything depends where you are based...I'm 9 years in the company and I love it ...nobody received the money that we received working the same amount of ours...the pressure for the sales and targets depends on your self...if you want to be going crazy or you are like me doing the job normal and what I sell I sell and I'm going home happy...the same of grooming .. mine was never 100 amazing but nobody said anything because there are many worse then me😂 about the scarf ahaha I never used mine inside the winter jacket...and yes the money of the winter jacket it's so worth it the best investment...and ok is just 40euros ...I totally agree with calling people to Dublin for the amount of sick and no shows and lates ....if you were long time in a base like me you gonna understand that the people that do that are always the same ones....and most of them it's because they are bored and they don't want to work ...I'm here 9 years I never called sick ...I never had a no show and I think I had 2 lates...about waking up early it's maybe 8 days per month...I live 60km awsy and I wake up 1.20before report😂😂 my friends don't understand as well how good organized and fast I am... Plus we have 3 days off every week...which job has that...ryanair people likes to complain a lot...but is just because they don't know how to be grateful for what they have ....I believe that they are n1 that they are horrible and some base supervisors but not everything is so negative like people says...and about the transfer and promotions everything depends where you want to go of course...you just need to be realistic and stop dreaming with impossivel things😂😂
I was just speaking from my personal experience. I agree that many things depend on where you are based. I really wish I could have completed the year I wanted to but it wasn't possible. When I was talking about pressure for sales I said it was mostly on the no.1's or people who wanted to become no.1's. I just remember people wanting a Ryanair contract but not being able to get it despite their hard work and dedication and being in the company for 4 years. And yes you are right with grooming though that also depends on who you work with...I think it's impossible for people to ever be 100% perfect 😂 I think you are super human not to have called in sick in 9 years 😂 not everyone is like that!! 3 days off is awesome! Especially for travelling or if you live close to the beach like you do!! I wish that was reality back then 😂 Thanks for being a great example 😍
Hello Tabitha! Thanks for your video! I wrote on your Instagram. Please you told we could write to you for more salary details… I’m interesting in more details money in UK base, because I live here in the UK. Thanks in advance!
