    This is how Emirates and other Middle Eastern airlines keep their crew young. It is usually made clear that employment as flight attendants at these companies are only a temporary stage of your life. Meanwhile in North America and Europe, some flight attendants work well into their 60's and the longer you work, the more seniority and perks you get at the company.

      Wrong. American and European crew are not as exposed as Middle Eastern crew. They get less work flow, they do not have thousands of services inflight, they get longer layovers outstation, meaning more period of rest. They have clear regulations and unions which help them with any ilegalities the company tries. On the other hand, a crew in middle east is flying until health starts giving signs. Basically, until exhaustion

    So amazing how you put as #1 Lack of Sleep. Or in aviation lingo: LOS. 😂 I sat at the pointy end of the 380 and spent 20 years with EK experiencing every aspect of LOS. Getting booted and loosing my identity during the Covid chaos has been extremely painful, but every day I think of the extreme value of sleeping at night. My wife’s still an EK purser and I see the toll on her more every day. My wish to return to a job as a long haul Captain slowly dwindles toward zero as time goes by. I truly miss operating the airplane, having the world as your playing field, and that almost insane sense of freedom & available possibilities when you check into your room at one of the many exciting destinations. Yet again. LOS. Front & center. I can’t get away from it. I’ve never seen your channel before, but I’ll subscribe now & hope PV works out for you. I used to fly a 10-seat corporate airplane from LA at the beginning of my career, and some clients used to go to PV regularly so I’ve spent many nights enjoying local food & entertainment.

    This was so bittersweet. I used to be a ticket agent at JFK Airport for Air France 2000 - 2001 (I had to work the day the Concorde crashed), and for American 2001 - 2008 (I was with them when September 11th occurred and when AA587 incident occured). I guess bad luck really followed me around. I wanted to call it quits after that but a coworker talked me out of it. The following 7 years I scratched my itch for travel THOROUGHLY. But eventually I just walked away and never looked back. I basically got burned out and the pay sucked. I'm now retired at 62 and I do not miss the workforce. But the travel itch is (slowly) returning. I am anxious to see more of your new life in Puerto Vallarta. It's on my travel wish list of places I've never been to. Your videos of PV from 2021 really sparked my interest in going there so I will probably go in 2023 with friends who have already been there several times. Puerto Vallarta seems like a vibrant spot without all the hustle and bustle of Mexico City, plus it's on the ocean. I've watched many videos of PV and the scenery is absolutely spectacular, especially the sunsets. And the cost of living is affordable unlike here in the USA. I am so happy for you both in making this drastic change in lifestyle!!! You are good people and I am sure GOD will bless it abundantly. Much success in the future. 😎😎😎

    Hi guys, As a frequent flyer with EK I want to take a moment to thank you for your service. I have flown 28 flights so far with EK. And never had a bad experience. No matter if it was upper deck or main deck. The thing is, not many understand what it means to be a cabin crew. It's just serving coffee & tea and look pretty, right? Far from it. And I am fully aware of this as I also actually work with EK at my airport. Make no mistake, I do pay for my tickets though :) It should however not matter if I work with the company or not. I always treat cabin crew with the respect they deserve. So again, thank you for putting up with all those pax who think they own the airline just because they fly upper deck. Wish you both good luck on your new endeavors.

    I had a lot of stuff to pack and thanks to my two flatmates who made that process easier.
    One was from Philippines and the other was from Bangladesh .Living with two other fellow Asians made my life easier because we Asians have a lot in common to share .

      Just do your homework and prep work.
      Everything you need to know is in their web page .Don't panic or overthink ,just be simple and smart .
      Make sure you are prepared before applying and don't have any regrets .
      Take one step at a time and do not be nervous.
      Try to look like a Cabin crew on the interview day but don't over do anything.
      Hope this helps u.
      FYI: Qatar airways has very strict rules and regulations for their Cabin crew.
      If possible try to apply for Saudi Airlines or Etihad airways because I found Saudi airlines interview much easier comparison to QA.

Remember when you are employed, your everything is controlled because everything you do depends on your work schedule that's designed by someone for you not by you. Am not a motivational speaker...am just saying it as it is.
