Honestly, I’m tired of answering this question, so I’ll do it one last time here and pin this comment. This video isn’t about Amanda. It’s about all the reasons you can be fired from Emirates. Her case is an example of two topics: breaking social media rules and how you can be fired because of your colleagues’ actions. Even covering those two topics, her case makes up less than 20% of the video. If we’re talking about someone bringing others down, I’m not the reason someone lost their job. No, I don’t support her actions, and I hope no one else is inspired by her behavior, filming something “not approved but viral” to gain popularity at the expense of someone else getting in trouble or even fired. If I wanted to criticize Amanda directly or gain attention from her story, I would have made a video just about her, put her face in the thumbnail, titled it something like “Amanda King: The Reason People Lost Their Jobs, but She Doesn’t Care,” and repeated her name in the description to optimize it for those searching for her videos. But I’ve done none of that-her name isn’t in the title, description, or thumbnail. This video is about all the reasons Emirates might fire a crew member, and her case is just a fitting example. And I’m tired to explain it.
Hello! I’ve researched tons of videos but there aren’t many like you who explain all the important stuff to know before joining. Such precious information you share will help so many who is wondering for this career, thank you for your contribution🥰 Have a wonderful day:)
I wish I had known this before joining, but back then, none of this info was available. That’s why I decided to create it myself-to help others who want to join🥰 It’s honestly a pleasure for me to help, and I’m so glad you find it useful 🫶
Oh my God this is some spicy tea you’re serving girl 😂 I love watching all crew related videos and all that on RUclips and since i’m a ground staff outstations it also helps to give me more perspective as to what happens in the air etc. Anyway, i 12:49 watched a lot of Amanda’s video which I thought was very interesting and informative. But even then i thought the baking part was a bit off and showing her bf the CRC was like whooow there! Even I as a ground staff never see the CRC during turn around. And finding out from you that she no longer works just. Wow. Again. Wow. And the seniors were fired because of her action is wild. Wild!
@@misotaro777 yeah, Amanda’s situation is quite bad, especially with how far things escalated. But it’s a good reminder of how serious the rules are and how actions can impact others too 🤷♀️ Hopefully, she doesn’t inspire others to create similar videos just for RUclips fame
I watched the Amanda King video with the cake some time ago, and I remember being very surprised about her baking a cake! I was mainly surprised how she managed to do that while still working.
That feeling of “I know something’s wrong, but I can’t quite put my finger on it” 😁 Even people without an aviation background could sense something wasn’t right. Now, imagine how furious Emirates must have been about that video. But unfortunately, it was her colleagues who faced the consequences, not Amanda 😕
I watched that video with the cake and I was SHOCKED at what she and her BF showed. I GASPED when she showed where she stores the key to the doors and even with knowing nothing about aircraft, I KNEW this was wrong. Showing the crew rest area and also baking the cake...I just couldn't believe it. I am glad she resigned because that behavior and irresponsibility is not acceptable, not to mention the fire risk with those baking things. However, seniors being fired due to her that is just sad and unfair. What a shame!
I completely agree, the level of irresponsibility shown in that video was shocking, especially when it comes to the safety. Aircraft procedures are there for a reason, and it’s unfortunate that others had to face the consequences of her actions 😢
She shared the cake among everyone and I believe the crew knew that she baked it inside the aircraft. I'm shocked nobody knew/saw anything and find it hard to believe
@@WeirdVicky You bring up a good point, but in reality a lot of crew avoid reporting because they don’t want to get their colleagues in trouble, even if someone does something wrong. She was fortunate to have flown with a kind crew, but they were less fortunate to have her. Also, with 26 crew members, it’s possible not everyone got the cake or realized it was baked on board. But regardless, her actions were still a serious breach of both social media and safety regulations 🤷♀️
@@JetstreamGinger I'm not saying the crew should have reported her, I think the csv knew about this and they have to report it according to emirates policy
Amanda doesn’t work at Emirates anymore? I work for an airline and I must confess that I was so shocked that she took her BF the crew rest area. That is a no no with my airline
Yeah, she left Emirates but hasn’t said anything about it on her socials-probably doesn’t want to lose followers 🤷♀️ She’s also been deleting comments that mention she quit and criticize her for breaking the rules and getting her colleagues in trouble. Non-operational crew in the crew rest area is a big no-no in any airline, I believe😁
@@JetstreamGinger it’s a absolute no. Also we have to decant our own food before putting it in the oven if we choose to bring our own because of the fire risk. And baking a cake is a HELL NO. I was so surprised that she broke the rules like that. She had such a good job and she blew it for the sake of her RUclips channel. Silly girl
because emirates employs that kind of dummy girls. if they would hire more mature ones, not just young dum pretty faces, than it will be better. But emirates it is like this more dumb, better for the airline. They will not complain, they will get fired.
I've heard for years about these medieval working conditions which led me to a) never apply to work there and b) never spend a single dime on any of these airlines.
I listened this video and understood that you're really lucky, you didn't get a warning. you can be confident in yourself, but not confident in others.
Many people go through their entire careers without ever receiving a warning, but yes, sometimes it’s just a matter of being in the wrong place, with the wrong people, at the wrong time. Emirates is a huge company with really strict rules 🙈
I would rather fly for any low cost airline like Ryanair,Wizz, than working for any medieval(middle eastern) airlines. Also, in the EU and US, you are allowed to fly with some conditions, completely banned in the UAE. A few days ago, I saw a Ryanair flight attendant with very bad acne, but I was so happy for her that ryanair doesn’t find it problematic. I don’t know what airlines like emirates or qatar strive to achieve with such treatment towards its staff?
@@nikolaynikolov8047 Honestly, I agree with you😁 EU airlines have their challenges, but at least there’s more flexibility. The strict rules of Middle Eastern airlines can be overwhelming. I got to travel to 55 countries with Emirates, but enough is enough-I’m done with them now😅🙈
I read somewhere on an old forum that the recruitment specialists at Emirates actually have their own weight charts and BMI requirements that they secretly use when recruiting. The healthy range is 18.5 to 25 commonly in the medical profession. However, Emirates apparently only hire staff with BMI between 18 - 22 and the uniforms only go upto a certain size. Would love to get a recruitment specialist to reveal all the secrets
I can’t say anything about BMI, but can confirm about uniform size. That is true that emirates has uniform up to a some size (I think it’s UK 22, but not sure for 100% and don’t want to lie) 😬
Wow, I'm shocked. I saw Amanda's video at the time and, as a person who knows nothing about aeroplanes, I honestly found it interesting, but at the same time I couldn't imagine that an airline would just allow it, so I assumed that she got some kind of "permission" to film these things beforehand. Maybe she didn't think she would get her colleagues involved, but she knew she was breaking the rules and just the fact of risking the safety of the passengers and crew for views leaves me speechless.
There are some official behind-the-scenes videos about our job, but they are quite short, filmed by Emirates, and posted on Emirates’ official social media. These videos show the full process, even including parts from the briefing room. They are not only approved by Emirates but also organized by the Emirates marketing department and use the Emirates promotion team. Amanda’s video is not something that would ever get permission. First of all, because of the safety violations (boyfriend in the CRC, baking a cake, etc.). Secondly, it’s not about Emirates, it’s about Amanda. Lastly, the quality-sneaky footage taken so seniors don’t see what she’s filming. Unfortunately, that video ended up ruining someone’s career (and not Amanda’s)
@@misotaro777 That’s not the information I’ve heard about CSW. But I’d be really happy if the company changes their stance on seniors. Sadly, demotion often leads straight to no contract renewal, unfortunately😢
Thanks for your video. I often fly with Emirates in economy, the service on board in economy has changed in the last 5/6 years. It has changed for the worse. Less attention for the passenger, more stress in the cabin crew. Thanks for your videos now I will look at the cabin crew with a different eye.
Ginger, I like your explanations and details about the Emirates Airline. I want to know about one thing for a boy how much BMI is required. BMI mandatory or not.
It’s not a strict requirement - they’re just looking for physically fit candidates with good health and use BMI as one reference point. You can check your BMI online, and if it’s within the healthy range, you’re all set)) For the most accurate result, look for a calculator that takes your gender into account 😊
@@Siwarmaghraoui If you’re on any medication, it needs to be approved by the Emirates clinic doctor. They are quite strict about mental health, especially during the hiring process. A friend of mine, also crew, developed panic attacks and needed medication and professional help. She was grounded for two months while receiving treatment and was only allowed to resume flying once Emirates confirmed she was mentally and physically fit to ensure flight safety.
I have several videos covering the Open Day, Assessment Day, Final Interview, and reasons why Emirates might reject candidates. You can start with those to get familiar with common questions and group assessments you might encounter. They’ll help you feel more prepared and confident for each stage of the process))
Yes, we always have to wear full makeup, with foundation being mandatory, and it’s true that this can sometimes lead to breakouts. From what I’ve heard, if the Image and Uniform Officer isn’t satisfied with how your skin looks, they can send you to a dermatologist for tests and treatment. If it doesn’t improve, there’s a possibility they could terminate your contract, but the acne would have to be quite severe for that to happen. I’ve had occasional breakouts, but I managed to cover them with makeup, so it was never an issue for me. Fortunately, this isn’t something they do often. But still crazy that it might be a reason for termination of the contract 😬
@@JetstreamGinger thank you for the detailed answer. I'm just surprised because foundation clogs the pores very often and many people with clear skin actually get bad skin when they wear makeup. Also the flight attendant schedule disrupts the circardian rhythm, which can lead to hormonal imbalances that can cause breakouts sometimes. I actually wanted to go join Emirates for a while but there are too many reasons for me not to do it. Also I start college next year and when I finish, I'm gonna be over 26 which is too old for them as far as I've heard
@@stellameii You’re absolutely right about the makeup causing breakouts 💯 As for your concern about age, don’t worry about it)) Emirates hires candidates with no issues up to 29. In fact, I had a batchmate who was 28, almost 29, when she joined. If you’re passionate about becoming cabin crew, go for it) You can always step away if you find it’s not the right fit for you 😁
Oh dear, I was enjoying her videos, I only came across them in the last few days but knowing the truth behind them makes be see her in a totally different light. Thanks for speaking the truth. I did think it was odd all the things she was doing and putting out there
Same here, I was fascinated at the behind the scenes but sad now that selfish actions have adverse consequences for others. The rest of the reasons here are all pretty sensible really, the only uncontrollables are grumpy passengers with a grudge & high value ones who are really low class with entitlement issues - hopefully few and far between. Looks like a hard job and to keep smiling and be nice all the time - kudos.
Hey I hope you are doing good , I am waiting for my DOJ with etihad but I have also applied for emirates … may i ask you … hows emirates working culture and is it same as etihad or which one is better in terms of working culture .. or in general
@@younesoutamricht3532 Emirates only started investigating after the video gained popularity, so yes, if the video hadn’t been uploaded, none of the crew would have gotten into trouble 🤷♀️
@@JetstreamGinger also do you think Amanda was aware that her behind the scenes video would get all the cabin crew that were on her flight in trouble? / thanks alot for your explanation.
@@younesoutamricht3532 I’m not sure about it, maybe at first she didn’t realize the impact and didn’t mean any harm. But the fact that she kept the video up after all the drama and deleted comments from crew who pointed out she was wrong and caused her colleagues serious trouble, really says a lot 🤷♀️
Your truely the best when it comes to in this video, the right advice and helpful info., for those who might? be thinking of applying for flight attendant employment. For me well...no way, i've heard enough already lol✈
I found all these rules by Emirates WONDERFUL and MUCH NEEDED. First thing first, it's a job. Do your job and leave. There is no need to create a mess, risk and unwanted things for the company. It's about an aircraft, and people flying in it. Its EXTREMELY SENSITIVE AND DANGEROUS TO DO MISTAKE. I think the rules should be even more strict. This is nothing. AND IF YOU HAVE PROBLEM THEN LEAVE DON'T CREATE A FUSS ABOUT IT. THERE ARE SOOO MANY ETHICAL PEOPLE AVAILABLE TO JOIN AND BE HAPPY AND RESPONSIBLE ABOUT COMPANY RULE AND CODE OF CONDUCT.
Hey there) Looks like your CAPS button might be stuck-or maybe someone has a problem with anger issues? 😄 First off, people deserve to know the reasons they could be fired. And yes, being at risk of termination for getting sick more than three times a year in a job that can take a toll on your health? Makes total sense to have even stricter rules, right? 🤣 You might be a perfect fit for Qatar Airways-they love strict rules for sure! Maybe give them a try? 😉
@@younesoutamricht3532 I speak English, Ukrainian, and Spanish 🥰 I also know Russian, but due to the war in Ukraine, I’ve chosen not to use it-it just doesn’t feel right for me at the moment
Wow, thank you so much for sharing the truth about Amanda! I have watched her videos and wondered how she could have possibly got away with sharing so much inside info when Emirates are notoriously known for having strict policies 🤨 The fact she's deceiving her viewers by pretending to still be working there and also deleting comments revealing the truth is very sad, but ruining other people's career because of this is just disgraceful. I hope your video will get as many views as possible because that's something Amanda can't delete 😉 (It would help to have something about Amanda King in the video title or thumbnail but I know it's not the prime focus of this video and have a feeling you are not a clickbaity kind of person 🤭)
@@MishkaTravels Yes, this story is an extreme example, but I don’t want to put Amanda’s name in the thumbnail or title because she’s not the main focus of the video)) I’ve already been accused of hyping on it, even though I only talk about it for about two minutes😅 I just really hope that people who consider joining Emirates just to gain RUclips popularity, like Amanda, will watch this video and think twice. Getting famous on RUclips by damaging someone’s career isn’t worth it-that’s the key message of that part of the video))
Hi! I’ve read different opinions about scars in visible areas for cabin crew. I have a small scar on my collarbone, and I’m wondering if that’s considered an open area. Do they check that area during the assessment? Could you please share your experience or any advice? Thanks a lot!
Hey)) I have a small scar on the inside of my finger-it’s light and only noticeable if I point it out. When I joined, I declared it, and they looked at it for a second before saying it was fine. As long as it’s something small, light, and not noticeable unless pointed out, you should be fine too 😉
If your BMI is 30 or above, they might start keeping an eye on you. I’m not sure of the exact number that triggers a diet program since I never had that issue. But from what I’ve heard, if the largest uniform size starts to feel tight, it’s a direct path to the diet program 😬
@@lr2564 If I’m not mistaken, it’s UK size 22, but they typically give you a uniform that’s one or 2 size bigger than what you’re used to. This is to ensure that the skirt isn’t too form-fitting, especially around the hips 😬😁
You weren't kidding about the tea 👀 I can't believe she was willing to lose her colleagues livelihoods because of youtube views. Amanda must have known they would get into trouble by posting that, hence waiting until she had resigned. So unscrupulous!
Hello i'm sorry if it's out off the topic, I would like to ask: I read on the Emirates website that the work contract lasts for 3 years. Is it possible to leave before the contract ends, and will there be a penalty? For example, having to pay a certain amount of money? Thank you so much
If you leave within the first year, then yes, there are some penalties. But once you’ve completed a year, you can resign without any issues-they’ll even provide you with a ticket back home 😅
Hey, how are you?! Do you know if I would not get hired after medical check when the see that I have already had Syphilis?! In which is already treated but will always show on my blood test if tested. 🥴
@@johnlima7146 hey) They will send you a medical declaration form in advance, and it’s best to declare any medical history and treatments you’ve had. While I’m not familiar with your specific health situation, I have heard of cases where people were sent home because they didn’t pass the medical examination. Being transparent from the start is always the safest option))
Я 4 місяці як звільнилась і це найкраще відчуття просто. Також я знала Аманду, вона була зі мною на тренінгу. Класна дівчина, але те, що вона зробила неприпустимо, вона знала, що робить і так, вона вже давно звільнилася. А щодо цих всіх правил: як же круто бути вільною людиною 😂 ви чудово виглядаєте, удачі 🎉
Дякую велике 🥰 Так, дійсно класно бути вільною людиною без відчуття, що в будь-який момент тебе можуть за щось звільнити, а знайти, за що, вони можуть легко 😂 З Амандою особисто я не була знайома, тож яка вона людина я не знаю. Якщо брати до уваги лише ситуацію з її відео, то це перебір, звичайно 🙈 Вам також удачі у «вільному плаванні» і знайти наступну роботу без токсичного менеджменту 😅
@@Grecia123_ hey) maximum age to work in Emirates as a crew is 50. They do not put maximum age to join on the web, but practice shows that usually they hire up to 30 years. You still can try to apply, maybe you’ll be an exemption) If not, you can consider Etihad. As far as I know they are less strict about age)
Hello! Could you tell me please, what if my BMI is lower than the minimum edge? I am so worried - got my call and a week later I’ll fly there. I think they can send me back home as I have lost some kilos after I assigned medicals where I mentioned my almost normal BMI. I need to gain 3-4 kg to reach minimum BMI again… Thank you for this video a lot! I really appreciate it
Well, my BMI was actually lower than the required level when I joined 😬, but they didn’t say anything to me. I think they’re more strict with being overweight. In my case, I’ve always had trouble gaining weight, but I look ‘healthy,’ even with a lower BMI. Maybe it could be the same for you too))
No, you can report sick up to 3 times a year, and each instance can vary in length-it could be just 1 day or 14. As long as you don’t exceed 3 sick reports or 14 sick days total in a year, you’re in the clear. For example, if you take 10 consecutive sick days, you’re fine. But if you report sick 5 times for just 1 day each, you can expect a call from your manager 😁 I once tore a ligament in my elbow and had to take 45 days off to recover. Even though I didn’t get capability (since I had only called in sick 4 times over 5 years), it probably affected my chances for an upgrade with that kind of history in my profile. Unfortunately, many crew are too afraid to call in sick at Emirates because of the strict policy, which leads to people flying while unwell-something that definitely doesn’t benefit anyone 😕
Your height is a minimum requirement, they gonna measure it again during an open/assessment day, but if by their measurement you’ll be 159 or less they will reject unfortunately(
They offer a wide range of sizes, so you’re likely to find what you need. However, if you wear a less common size like 33 or 47, they’ll provide you with a shoe allowance, allowing you to purchase a pair from approved brands, such as Hush Puppies))
Hey Irina, the policy about social media is actually more strict. Even if you do not have a pic in uniform and your social media are private, the company still expects you to uphold those rules at all times! If someone snitches you on your private account you can still get fired
Yeah, I know of a case where a girl posted a story on her private Instagram, showing a souvenir shop in Moscow that sold t-shirts with Putin on them. She captioned it, ‘I didn’t know they sold dicks on t-shirts in Russiaʼ 😂. Someone took a screenshot, reported it to the company, and she was fired. I even messaged her later, saying something better is probably waiting for her. Emirates is really strict with their social media policies-only Qatar might be more extreme 😬
@JetstreamGinger yes I've heard that too (at least two versions lol). Sorry to hear that it's true. Do you know if she had any pics in uniform on her private account or was she tagged somewhere?
@JetstreamGinger that's so messed up ! Usually they fire people for these things where there is a picture in uniform somewhere, because they are afraid that someone might publish a photo of them in uniform and be like "look what emirates crew write in their Instagram!". But if she had no photo and no info associating her to emirates , why fire her ? Usually it's a written, not termination !
@@Nesher92 I believe she was still on probation when it happened, but I can’t recall all the details since it was over a year ago. Regardless, it was definitely unfair-I totally agree😕
Try it. You gotta reach a certain height with your finger tips. Each airline have different requirements on that. I am over 200cm, do you want wome height from me ?😂
To join Emirates as cabin crew, you need to be at least 160 cm tall and able to reach a height of 212 cm on your tiptoes-that’s the standard requirement. I’m 165 cm, for example))
Hi, can you tell me what's the maxim age Emirates wants? That s why i was in Milan 3 month month ago, I'm 49 years old...i was not include, but she told me to come again, and i receded email from Emirates..now from 2weeks i will be in Dubai for holiday and job,i wont to go directly to Emirates..what do you think about? Thanks
Unfortunately, the age limit for Emirates cabin crew is 50. In practice, they typically hire new crew members up to the age of 30. However, you can explore other ground or management roles that fit your experience. Check the Emirates careers website for other opportunities😊
@@JetstreamGinger i dont understand why they told me to try again..but I'm a spa therapist..do you now if is possible to work in timeless spa? Where can I send my resume? Is not possible to talk with them...
@@JetstreamGingerso if you are a crew member and you are becoming 50 than you can not be a crew member anymore? They will terminate that crew member or they will offer an other job/function within Emirates for that person.
@@daylightdaylight6612 Yes, people are aware of the 50-year rule, so they try to prepare accordingly. Some crew try to transition into ground or management roles with Emirates, but it’s quite rare that the company offers those positions to retired crew 😢
@@yvonneadongo2304 I think she made a lot of content before she left, so she might still be posting as if she’s with the company (which she’s doing right now). She’s also been deleting comments from Emirates crew who called her out for acting like she’s still working there or when people pointed out that her videos could get her colleagues in trouble or break company rules. I was still with the company when she resigned and posted that video, and so many crew members got into trouble because of it. They even made the policies stricter after that 😬 Personally, I don’t respect that kind of behavior. At least in her newer videos, after all the drama, she started blurring her colleagues’ faces. In the end, it’s up to everyone to decide if they want to follow her or not 🤷♀️
@JetstreamGinger oh wow! I actually thought she's still working at Emirates. Yes I realised she's been blurring faces of Emirates staff on her videos and thought maybe she was reprimanded by Emirates. Knowing Emirates strict policies I usually used to question how she'd manage to post Emirates behind the scenes videos while she still works there!
@@Unlifestyledeluxe A lot of crew received warnings (which isn’t the same as being fired, but it’s not great to have on your record and could lead to termination or non-renewal of a contract). Only the senior got into serious trouble and were fired because of her 😕
Bringing your own foil, paper, or equipment on board isn’t permitted. Emirates provides crew with specific foil and heating equipment that’s been thoroughly tested for safety in aircraft ovens. Even if your baking tools are designed for regular ovens, they aren’t suitable for aircraft use without proper testing, so everyone needs to stick with what’s provided 🤷♀️
l dont think she work airline what she is doing wrong should been sack this should been private why is airline tell the story Facebook do company know what cabin crew do l seen on abay selling they uniform l work airline when you leave has to been returned and airside pass well they are doing for money
I’m not entirely sure what you mean, but I’ll do my best to answer 😅 I used to work for Emirates and after resigning, I returned everything required, including all my uniform items and passes. Emirates expects you to return the same number of items they initially provided. However, if you need a different size, you may need to purchase certain items yourself. For example, I had hats in two different sizes-S and M-because I wore two different hairstyles. The S was too small for a French twist, while the M was a bit too big for a bun, so I bought the extra size from the company myself. Only the items provided for free had to be returned upon resignation (I have a clearance letter from Emirates, that I returned everything). Some crew members keep a piece of their uniform as a memories, but unfortunately, a few might try to sell items online. However, these cases are exceptions, and it’s unfair to judge the entire crew community based on a few isolated incidents))
@@VK-M My accent simply reflects the fact that I speak more than one language-actually, I speak four) Not something to be ashamed of😉 Btw, I included subtitles in this video, but I guess that’s not something a person who’s trying to offend me would be interested in 🥰
I appreciate the tea, but feels wrong that your channel is the one telling us about Amanda, I feel like if and when she felt ready she should be the one talking about it. If not about the cake drama, but about resigning, kind of feels weird hearing it from someone else, like mean girl energy.
"mean girl energy" is Amanda filming things she souldn't (like where the keys are stocked, wtf, with terrorists out there these days, we can wonder if she is mad ? showing secret stewards cabin... resigning before posting the video. Sounds calculated. And above all, putting everyone in danger by baking things unallowed on the airplane. ). I hope that since there is proof that she deletes Emirats comments, she will be legally put on trial by the company. She was still working when this unallowed content was filmed. Dude/Girl, it is illegal and dangerous behavior. Your simplistic comment about "mean girl energy" is lost on you...
@@MoonBunnyOwO Thanks for your comment)) I get what you’re saying, but the point of Amanda’s story was to show how someone’s actions can get the whole crew into trouble at Emirates. In her case, she filmed a video she wasn’t supposed to (knowing the strict social media rules), broke safety rules (cake, boyfriend in the Crew Rest Compartment), and then posted it after she resigned because she knew it would cause problems. But instead of her, the crew from that flight got in trouble. This video isn’t focused on her, I only spent 2 minutes on the story to cover how breaking policies like this can lead to serious consequences for everyone. Also, since she’s been deleting comments from others involved, it doesn’t look like she’s planning to share the full story. Hope that clears things up))
I disagree. It's actually great that someone has finally shared the truth about her publicly. Amanda is knowingly deceiving her viewers about still working for Emirates and also deleting comments that say otherwise. Shame on her.
Not cool putting someone down behind their back and trying to catch the hype based on someone else’s behaviour. Goes to show the kind of person who would do something like that and try to gain audience at someone else’s expense.
Who are you referring to? Just to clear things up, this video isn’t about Amanda -it’s about all the reasons you can get fired from Emirates. Amanda’s case is 2 minutes of overall length of the video. Her story and the layover examples are just to show how someone else’s actions can mess with your career. And honestly, I really hope no one tries to follow Amanda’s path of breaking social media rules just to grow fast on RUclips, when it puts your colleagues in trouble.
Unless you were personally involved in whatever it is that actually happened, I’d take anything a blogger who is publicly dishing out dirt on another blogger is saying with a pinch of salt. There are always two sides to any story.
@JetstreamGinger Sorry, but if it wasn’t hype that you are after, you wouldn’t be publicly naming anyone and finger pointing. Your whole post is focused on this one other blogger who is not here and who is unable to stand up for herself. Just a typical instigator behaviour in hope of getting more views at someone else’s expense.
@@ShadowOnTheGround389 That situation had a big impact on the entire crew community, creating even more pressure from the company. When people who were affected tried to comment on her videos, pointing out that what she did was prohibited, she deleted those comments. I didn’t say anything bad about her or make things up. I simply explained Emirates’ policies and showed a screenshot from her own video that clearly shows she violated those policies. It’s nothing personal. This part of my video is a warning for those dreaming of joining Emirates to become influencers and create videos like Amanda-it’s not allowed and can jeopardize other people’s careers. But of course, you’re free to have your own opinion about me, and that’s totally fine 🤷♀️
I am so disappointed with Amanda King. I unsuscribed, I discovered her lately and thought that Emirates was just kind towards her by letting her film (or that it is not a problem if it is her friend filming it all). She posts extremely deceiving contents and it doesn’t match the « pure, energetic » vibe she portrays in her videos. I hope that her persona on social media’s is not fake (now I doubt it) because this must the last thing she would have to be good about her. How gross.
I get where you’re coming from. Maybe at first, she didn’t realize the impact her video would have and definitely didn’t mean any harm. But keeping the video up after all the drama and deleting comments from crew who pointed out it wasn’t okay is disappointing. I felt the same 😕
Hello, may I ask if I can use clear braces like invisalign or get dental crowns, dental veneers when I join the Emirates. My teeth aren't that perfect 🥲
I know some people who fly with Invisalign, but if we’re talking about official Image and Uniform policies, those aren’t allowed 😁 However, I’ve flown with many crew members who have veneers-they just need to look natural, and that’s all that matters))

Her case is an example of two topics: breaking social media rules and how you can be fired because of your colleagues’ actions. Even covering those two topics, her case makes up less than 20% of the video. If we’re talking about someone bringing others down, I’m not the reason someone lost their job.
No, I don’t support her actions, and I hope no one else is inspired by her behavior, filming something “not approved but viral” to gain popularity at the expense of someone else getting in trouble or even fired.
If I wanted to criticize Amanda directly or gain attention from her story, I would have made a video just about her, put her face in the thumbnail, titled it something like “Amanda King: The Reason People Lost Their Jobs, but She Doesn’t Care,” and repeated her name in the description to optimize it for those searching for her videos. But I’ve done none of that-her name isn’t in the title, description, or thumbnail. This video is about all the reasons Emirates might fire a crew member, and her case is just a fitting example. And I’m tired to explain it.
Very well said! 👍
What do you work as now.
Im so thankful for being with a European airline
😁
Hello! I’ve researched tons of videos but there aren’t many like you who explain all the important stuff to know before joining. Such precious information you share will help so many who is wondering for this career, thank you for your contribution🥰 Have a wonderful day:)
I wish I had known this before joining, but back then, none of this info was available. That’s why I decided to create it myself-to help others who want to join🥰 It’s honestly a pleasure for me to help, and I’m so glad you find it useful 🫶
Цінна інформація для роздумів😮
Oh my God this is some spicy tea you’re serving girl 😂 I love watching all crew related videos and all that on RUclips and since i’m a ground staff outstations it also helps to give me more perspective as to what happens in the air etc. Anyway, i 12:49 watched a lot of Amanda’s video which I thought was very interesting and informative. But even then i thought the baking part was a bit off and showing her bf the CRC was like whooow there! Even I as a ground staff never see the CRC during turn around. And finding out from you that she no longer works just. Wow. Again. Wow. And the seniors were fired because of her action is wild. Wild!
@@misotaro777 yeah, Amanda’s situation is quite bad, especially with how far things escalated. But it’s a good reminder of how serious the rules are and how actions can impact others too 🤷♀️ Hopefully, she doesn’t inspire others to create similar videos just for RUclips fame
I watched the Amanda King video with the cake some time ago, and I remember being very surprised about her baking a cake! I was mainly surprised how she managed to do that while still working.
That feeling of “I know something’s wrong, but I can’t quite put my finger on it” 😁 Even people without an aviation background could sense something wasn’t right. Now, imagine how furious Emirates must have been about that video. But unfortunately, it was her colleagues who faced the consequences, not Amanda 😕
I watched that video with the cake and I was SHOCKED at what she and her BF showed. I GASPED when she showed where she stores the key to the doors and even with knowing nothing about aircraft, I KNEW this was wrong. Showing the crew rest area and also baking the cake...I just couldn't believe it. I am glad she resigned because that behavior and irresponsibility is not acceptable, not to mention the fire risk with those baking things. However, seniors being fired due to her that is just sad and unfair. What a shame!
I completely agree, the level of irresponsibility shown in that video was shocking, especially when it comes to the safety. Aircraft procedures are there for a reason, and it’s unfortunate that others had to face the consequences of her actions 😢
She shared the cake among everyone and I believe the crew knew that she baked it inside the aircraft. I'm shocked nobody knew/saw anything and find it hard to believe
@@WeirdVicky You bring up a good point, but in reality a lot of crew avoid reporting because they don’t want to get their colleagues in trouble, even if someone does something wrong. She was fortunate to have flown with a kind crew, but they were less fortunate to have her. Also, with 26 crew members, it’s possible not everyone got the cake or realized it was baked on board. But regardless, her actions were still a serious breach of both social media and safety regulations 🤷♀️
where can i find thqt video? i dont see it on her Yt channel
@@JetstreamGinger I'm not saying the crew should have reported her, I think the csv knew about this and they have to report it according to emirates policy
Amanda doesn’t work at Emirates anymore? I work for an airline and I must confess that I was so shocked that she took her BF the crew rest area. That is a no no with my airline
Yeah, she left Emirates but hasn’t said anything about it on her socials-probably doesn’t want to lose followers 🤷♀️ She’s also been deleting comments that mention she quit and criticize her for breaking the rules and getting her colleagues in trouble.
Non-operational crew in the crew rest area is a big no-no in any airline, I believe😁
@@JetstreamGinger it’s a absolute no. Also we have to decant our own food before putting it in the oven if we choose to bring our own because of the fire risk. And baking a cake is a HELL NO. I was so surprised that she broke the rules like that. She had such a good job and she blew it for the sake of her RUclips channel. Silly girl
because emirates employs that kind of dummy girls. if they would hire more mature ones, not just young dum pretty faces, than it will be better. But emirates it is like this more dumb, better for the airline. They will not complain, they will get fired.
I've heard for years about these medieval working conditions which led me to a) never apply to work there and b) never spend a single dime on any of these airlines.
Totally understandable 😁
I listened this video and understood that you're really lucky, you didn't get a warning. you can be confident in yourself, but not confident in others.
Many people go through their entire careers without ever receiving a warning, but yes, sometimes it’s just a matter of being in the wrong place, with the wrong people, at the wrong time. Emirates is a huge company with really strict rules 🙈
I would rather fly for any low cost airline like Ryanair,Wizz, than working for any medieval(middle eastern) airlines. Also, in the EU and US, you are allowed to fly with some conditions, completely banned in the UAE. A few days ago, I saw a Ryanair flight attendant with very bad acne, but I was so happy for her that ryanair doesn’t find it problematic. I don’t know what airlines like emirates or qatar strive to achieve with such treatment towards its staff?
@@nikolaynikolov8047 Honestly, I agree with you😁 EU airlines have their challenges, but at least there’s more flexibility. The strict rules of Middle Eastern airlines can be overwhelming. I got to travel to 55 countries with Emirates, but enough is enough-I’m done with them now😅🙈
I read somewhere on an old forum that the recruitment specialists at Emirates actually have their own weight charts and BMI requirements that they secretly use when recruiting. The healthy range is 18.5 to 25 commonly in the medical profession. However, Emirates apparently only hire staff with BMI between 18 - 22 and the uniforms only go upto a certain size. Would love to get a recruitment specialist to reveal all the secrets
I can’t say anything about BMI, but can confirm about uniform size. That is true that emirates has uniform up to a some size (I think it’s UK 22, but not sure for 100% and don’t want to lie) 😬
Wow, I'm shocked. I saw Amanda's video at the time and, as a person who knows nothing about aeroplanes, I honestly found it interesting, but at the same time I couldn't imagine that an airline would just allow it, so I assumed that she got some kind of "permission" to film these things beforehand. Maybe she didn't think she would get her colleagues involved, but she knew she was breaking the rules and just the fact of risking the safety of the passengers and crew for views leaves me speechless.
There are some official behind-the-scenes videos about our job, but they are quite short, filmed by Emirates, and posted on Emirates’ official social media. These videos show the full process, even including parts from the briefing room. They are not only approved by Emirates but also organized by the Emirates marketing department and use the Emirates promotion team.
Amanda’s video is not something that would ever get permission. First of all, because of the safety violations (boyfriend in the CRC, baking a cake, etc.). Secondly, it’s not about Emirates, it’s about Amanda. Lastly, the quality-sneaky footage taken so seniors don’t see what she’s filming. Unfortunately, that video ended up ruining someone’s career (and not Amanda’s)
Just heard from another ex crew that just left. The senior got demoted and not fired.
Thank. God.
@@misotaro777 That’s not the information I’ve heard about CSW. But I’d be really happy if the company changes their stance on seniors. Sadly, demotion often leads straight to no contract renewal, unfortunately😢
Thank you Iryna for sharing. This is very useful to know some things before considering working for an airline.
Glad it was helpful 🥰
Thank you for sharing with us all these contents
🥰
Thanks for your video. I often fly with Emirates in economy, the service on board in economy has changed in the last 5/6 years. It has changed for the worse. Less attention for the passenger, more stress in the cabin crew. Thanks for your videos now I will look at the cabin crew with a different eye.
Happy I can change a view of a cabin crew job 🙏
Ginger, I like your explanations and details about the Emirates Airline.
I want to know about one thing for a boy how much BMI is required.
BMI mandatory or not.
It’s not a strict requirement - they’re just looking for physically fit candidates with good health and use BMI as one reference point. You can check your BMI online, and if it’s within the healthy range, you’re all set)) For the most accurate result, look for a calculator that takes your gender into account 😊
do they have a problem with normal level of antidepressants natural ones ? thank you so much for your fascinating content
@@Siwarmaghraoui If you’re on any medication, it needs to be approved by the Emirates clinic doctor. They are quite strict about mental health, especially during the hiring process. A friend of mine, also crew, developed panic attacks and needed medication and professional help. She was grounded for two months while receiving treatment and was only allowed to resume flying once Emirates confirmed she was mentally and physically fit to ensure flight safety.
Interview on assessment day on Sunday but they told me yesterday
I don't know where to start preparing. Can you advise me?
I have several videos covering the Open Day, Assessment Day, Final Interview, and reasons why Emirates might reject candidates. You can start with those to get familiar with common questions and group assessments you might encounter. They’ll help you feel more prepared and confident for each stage of the process))
the acne thing is crazy. Aren't emirates cabin crew supposed to wear full face makeup all the time? that actually causes breakouts.
Yes, we always have to wear full makeup, with foundation being mandatory, and it’s true that this can sometimes lead to breakouts. From what I’ve heard, if the Image and Uniform Officer isn’t satisfied with how your skin looks, they can send you to a dermatologist for tests and treatment. If it doesn’t improve, there’s a possibility they could terminate your contract, but the acne would have to be quite severe for that to happen.
I’ve had occasional breakouts, but I managed to cover them with makeup, so it was never an issue for me. Fortunately, this isn’t something they do often. But still crazy that it might be a reason for termination of the contract 😬
@@JetstreamGinger thank you for the detailed answer. I'm just surprised because foundation clogs the pores very often and many people with clear skin actually get bad skin when they wear makeup. Also the flight attendant schedule disrupts the circardian rhythm, which can lead to hormonal imbalances that can cause breakouts sometimes. I actually wanted to go join Emirates for a while but there are too many reasons for me not to do it. Also I start college next year and when I finish, I'm gonna be over 26 which is too old for them as far as I've heard
@@stellameii You’re absolutely right about the makeup causing breakouts 💯
As for your concern about age, don’t worry about it)) Emirates hires candidates with no issues up to 29. In fact, I had a batchmate who was 28, almost 29, when she joined. If you’re passionate about becoming cabin crew, go for it) You can always step away if you find it’s not the right fit for you 😁
@@JetstreamGinger that gives me hope, thanks 💛☺️
@@JetstreamGinger Sounds like to me that the "real acne infection", is in fact within the company management attitude!
Oh dear, I was enjoying her videos, I only came across them in the last few days but knowing the truth behind them makes be see her in a totally different light. Thanks for speaking the truth. I did think it was odd all the things she was doing and putting out there
Same here, I was fascinated at the behind the scenes but sad now that selfish actions have adverse consequences for others. The rest of the reasons here are all pretty sensible really, the only uncontrollables are grumpy passengers with a grudge & high value ones who are really low class with entitlement issues - hopefully few and far between. Looks like a hard job and to keep smiling and be nice all the time - kudos.
I apply today in Dubai Emirates and in Rayn Air. Wish me luck! 😊
@@illyriangods8657 Good luck 🤞
Good luck!!!!!!! Hope you get the job and you're happy with it!
@@misssalty_pizza2679 thanks a lot :)
Did you get invited
@goodyoflife Yes ! In 2 November. I can't wait! They respond me in 3 days... I think this is early. I have the first interview in less than 1 week
Thank you for the video, I hope that you will be successful in your YT journey ❤
Thank you so much, you’re such a sweet soul ❤️
Hey I hope you are doing good , I am waiting for my DOJ with etihad but I have also applied for emirates … may i ask you … hows emirates working culture and is it same as etihad or which one is better in terms of working culture .. or in general
I would personally just wait for DOJ with Etihad. I think the atmosphere inside of Etihad is more relaxed then Emirates)
Great job, enjoying your content, I’ve subscribed
Thanks ☺️
Wait, so you are telling me if Amanda didn't upload that video, nobody from the cabin crew or the seniors would've gotten in trouble?????!!!
@@younesoutamricht3532 Emirates only started investigating after the video gained popularity, so yes, if the video hadn’t been uploaded, none of the crew would have gotten into trouble 🤷♀️
@JetstreamGinger do you know why Amanda resigned in the first place?
@@younesoutamricht3532 I’m not sure why she resigned. We’re not acquainted)
@@JetstreamGinger also do you think Amanda was aware that her behind the scenes video would get all the cabin crew that were on her flight in trouble? / thanks alot for your explanation.
@@younesoutamricht3532 I’m not sure about it, maybe at first she didn’t realize the impact and didn’t mean any harm. But the fact that she kept the video up after all the drama and deleted comments from crew who pointed out she was wrong and caused her colleagues serious trouble, really says a lot 🤷♀️
Your truely the best when it comes to in this video, the right advice and helpful info., for those who might? be thinking of applying for flight attendant employment. For me well...no way, i've heard enough already lol✈
Thank you for your kind words 🥰
I found all these rules by Emirates WONDERFUL and MUCH NEEDED.
First thing first, it's a job. Do your job and leave. There is no need to create a mess, risk and unwanted things for the company.
It's about an aircraft, and people flying in it. Its EXTREMELY SENSITIVE AND DANGEROUS TO DO MISTAKE. I think the rules should be even more strict. This is nothing.
AND IF YOU HAVE PROBLEM THEN LEAVE DON'T CREATE A FUSS ABOUT IT. THERE ARE SOOO MANY ETHICAL PEOPLE AVAILABLE TO JOIN AND BE HAPPY AND RESPONSIBLE ABOUT COMPANY RULE AND CODE OF CONDUCT.
Hey there) Looks like your CAPS button might be stuck-or maybe someone has a problem with anger issues? 😄
First off, people deserve to know the reasons they could be fired. And yes, being at risk of termination for getting sick more than three times a year in a job that can take a toll on your health? Makes total sense to have even stricter rules, right? 🤣 You might be a perfect fit for Qatar Airways-they love strict rules for sure! Maybe give them a try? 😉
Hello Iryna, Im curious to know what languages do you speak?
@@younesoutamricht3532 I speak English, Ukrainian, and Spanish 🥰 I also know Russian, but due to the war in Ukraine, I’ve chosen not to use it-it just doesn’t feel right for me at the moment
Wow, thank you so much for sharing the truth about Amanda! I have watched her videos and wondered how she could have possibly got away with sharing so much inside info when Emirates are notoriously known for having strict policies 🤨 The fact she's deceiving her viewers by pretending to still be working there and also deleting comments revealing the truth is very sad, but ruining other people's career because of this is just disgraceful.
I hope your video will get as many views as possible because that's something Amanda can't delete 😉 (It would help to have something about Amanda King in the video title or thumbnail but I know it's not the prime focus of this video and have a feeling you are not a clickbaity kind of person 🤭)
@@MishkaTravels Yes, this story is an extreme example, but I don’t want to put Amanda’s name in the thumbnail or title because she’s not the main focus of the video)) I’ve already been accused of hyping on it, even though I only talk about it for about two minutes😅 I just really hope that people who consider joining Emirates just to gain RUclips popularity, like Amanda, will watch this video and think twice. Getting famous on RUclips by damaging someone’s career isn’t worth it-that’s the key message of that part of the video))
😂😂😂😂You really want Amanda's career over huh
@@Godsent_Gabriel999 It’s already over, though (I mean her career with Emirates) 🤷♀️ She resigned before she posted that video
@@Godsent_Gabriel999 Her career is already over, that's the whole point 😂 She's a fraud.
Hi! I’ve read different opinions about scars in visible areas for cabin crew. I have a small scar on my collarbone, and I’m wondering if that’s considered an open area. Do they check that area during the assessment? Could you please share your experience or any advice? Thanks a lot!
Hey)) I have a small scar on the inside of my finger-it’s light and only noticeable if I point it out. When I joined, I declared it, and they looked at it for a second before saying it was fine. As long as it’s something small, light, and not noticeable unless pointed out, you should be fine too 😉
Hello, can you didclose which BMI you have to be under ? I can understand if it is a sensitive question
If your BMI is 30 or above, they might start keeping an eye on you. I’m not sure of the exact number that triggers a diet program since I never had that issue. But from what I’ve heard, if the largest uniform size starts to feel tight, it’s a direct path to the diet program 😬
@@JetstreamGingerCan I ask what is the largest uniform size they do?❤
@@lr2564 If I’m not mistaken, it’s UK size 22, but they typically give you a uniform that’s one or 2 size bigger than what you’re used to. This is to ensure that the skirt isn’t too form-fitting, especially around the hips 😬😁
So they are wearing a "bag" as an uniform, because they are fixed about not showing "feminine shapes"
You weren't kidding about the tea 👀 I can't believe she was willing to lose her colleagues livelihoods because of youtube views. Amanda must have known they would get into trouble by posting that, hence waiting until she had resigned. So unscrupulous!
Right?! It’s crazy how much of an impact one video can have 😕
Hello i'm sorry if it's out off the topic, I would like to ask: I read on the Emirates website that the work contract lasts for 3 years. Is it possible to leave before the contract ends, and will there be a penalty? For example, having to pay a certain amount of money?
Thank you so much
If you leave within the first year, then yes, there are some penalties. But once you’ve completed a year, you can resign without any issues-they’ll even provide you with a ticket back home 😅
Hey, how are you?!
Do you know if I would not get hired after medical check when the see that I have already had Syphilis?! In which is already treated but will always show on my blood test if tested. 🥴
@@johnlima7146 hey) They will send you a medical declaration form in advance, and it’s best to declare any medical history and treatments you’ve had. While I’m not familiar with your specific health situation, I have heard of cases where people were sent home because they didn’t pass the medical examination. Being transparent from the start is always the safest option))
Я 4 місяці як звільнилась і це найкраще відчуття просто. Також я знала Аманду, вона була зі мною на тренінгу.

Дякую велике 🥰 Так, дійсно класно бути вільною людиною без відчуття, що в будь-який момент тебе можуть за щось звільнити, а знайти, за що, вони можуть легко 😂
З Амандою особисто я не була знайома, тож яка вона людина я не знаю. Якщо брати до уваги лише ситуацію з її відео, то це перебір, звичайно 🙈

Hi , if I’m 30 , am I too old to apply to Emirates ?
@@Grecia123_ hey) maximum age to work in Emirates as a crew is 50. They do not put maximum age to join on the web, but practice shows that usually they hire up to 30 years. You still can try to apply, maybe you’ll be an exemption)
If not, you can consider Etihad. As far as I know they are less strict about age)
Hello! Could you tell me please, what if my BMI is lower than the minimum edge? I am so worried - got my call and a week later I’ll fly there. I think they can send me back home as I have lost some kilos after I assigned medicals where I mentioned my almost normal BMI. I need to gain 3-4 kg to reach minimum BMI again…
Thank you for this video a lot! I really appreciate it
Well, my BMI was actually lower than the required level when I joined 😬, but they didn’t say anything to me. I think they’re more strict with being overweight. In my case, I’ve always had trouble gaining weight, but I look ‘healthy,’ even with a lower BMI.
Maybe it could be the same for you too))
@@JetstreamGingerso if you gain weight due a simple medical issue you will fired
Hey Iryna, can I ask you where are you from?
I’m from Ukraine)
Мне всегда было интересно, а есть какая-то система поощерений, если пассажиры наоборот хвалят за outstanding service?
So when you said “if you call in sick 3 times per year” did you mean 3 days or 3 week long periods for example? 3 days is literally nothing 😱
No, you can report sick up to 3 times a year, and each instance can vary in length-it could be just 1 day or 14. As long as you don’t exceed 3 sick reports or 14 sick days total in a year, you’re in the clear. For example, if you take 10 consecutive sick days, you’re fine. But if you report sick 5 times for just 1 day each, you can expect a call from your manager 😁
I once tore a ligament in my elbow and had to take 45 days off to recover. Even though I didn’t get capability (since I had only called in sick 4 times over 5 years), it probably affected my chances for an upgrade with that kind of history in my profile.
Unfortunately, many crew are too afraid to call in sick at Emirates because of the strict policy, which leads to people flying while unwell-something that definitely doesn’t benefit anyone 😕
Life is always trying to help somewhere😅
Those who were fired? 😂 Well, when one door closes, another one opens!
Great job

@@sanjanaghunasham6931 I love Mauritius, such a beautiful country 🥰 but for Emirates crew quite often it’s a “party hard” destination 🤣
Is there any requirements for flight attendant shoe size? I couldn't find any information about it on the emirates wet ((Thank you
They offer a wide range of sizes, so you’re likely to find what you need. However, if you wear a less common size like 33 or 47, they’ll provide you with a shoe allowance, allowing you to purchase a pair from approved brands, such as Hush Puppies))
@@JetstreamGinger thanks 🙏 very helpful
Hey Irina, the policy about social media is actually more strict. Even if you do not have a pic in uniform and your social media are private, the company still expects you to uphold those rules at all times!
If someone snitches you on your private account you can still get fired
Yeah, I know of a case where a girl posted a story on her private Instagram, showing a souvenir shop in Moscow that sold t-shirts with Putin on them. She captioned it, ‘I didn’t know they sold dicks on t-shirts in Russiaʼ 😂. Someone took a screenshot, reported it to the company, and she was fired. I even messaged her later, saying something better is probably waiting for her.
Emirates is really strict with their social media policies-only Qatar might be more extreme 😬
@JetstreamGinger yes I've heard that too (at least two versions lol).
Sorry to hear that it's true.
Do you know if she had any pics in uniform on her private account or was she tagged somewhere?
@@Nesher92 as far as I know she didn't have any pictures in uniform anywhere (
@JetstreamGinger that's so messed up ! Usually they fire people for these things where there is a picture in uniform somewhere, because they are afraid that someone might publish a photo of them in uniform and be like "look what emirates crew write in their Instagram!".
But if she had no photo and no info associating her to emirates , why fire her ?
Usually it's a written, not termination !
@@Nesher92 I believe she was still on probation when it happened, but I can’t recall all the details since it was over a year ago. Regardless, it was definitely unfair-I totally agree😕
Do they really prefer people over 170cm? I also wanna go to be a flight attendant but I'm 164cm and I'm 25years old.
Try it. You gotta reach a certain height with your finger tips. Each airline have different requirements on that.
I am over 200cm, do you want wome height from me ?😂
To join Emirates as cabin crew, you need to be at least 160 cm tall and able to reach a height of 212 cm on your tiptoes-that’s the standard requirement. I’m 165 cm, for example))
@JetstreamGinger really 🥹omg that gives me hope. Thanks so much

Thanks
Unfortunately, the age limit for Emirates cabin crew is 50. In practice, they typically hire new crew members up to the age of 30. However, you can explore other ground or management roles that fit your experience. Check the Emirates careers website for other opportunities😊

They will terminate that crew member or they will offer an other job/function within Emirates for that person.
@@daylightdaylight6612 Yes, people are aware of the 50-year rule, so they try to prepare accordingly. Some crew try to transition into ground or management roles with Emirates, but it’s quite rare that the company offers those positions to retired crew 😢

Sad to hear Amanda King resigned! I follow her youtube vlogs
@@yvonneadongo2304 I think she made a lot of content before she left, so she might still be posting as if she’s with the company (which she’s doing right now).
She’s also been deleting comments from Emirates crew who called her out for acting like she’s still working there or when people pointed out that her videos could get her colleagues in trouble or break company rules. I was still with the company when she resigned and posted that video, and so many crew members got into trouble because of it. They even made the policies stricter after that 😬
Personally, I don’t respect that kind of behavior. At least in her newer videos, after all the drama, she started blurring her colleagues’ faces. In the end, it’s up to everyone to decide if they want to follow her or not 🤷♀️
She made her whole crew fired, omg I am so disapointed with her
@JetstreamGinger oh wow! I actually thought she's still working at Emirates. Yes I realised she's been blurring faces of Emirates staff on her videos and thought maybe she was reprimanded by Emirates. Knowing Emirates strict policies I usually used to question how she'd manage to post Emirates behind the scenes videos while she still works there!
@@Unlifestyledeluxe A lot of crew received warnings (which isn’t the same as being fired, but it’s not great to have on your record and could lead to termination or non-renewal of a contract). Only the senior got into serious trouble and were fired because of her 😕
@JetstreamGinger what! Sad to hear, did she upload the cake video after her resignation?
And what if she took aluminum foil for that oven?
Bringing your own foil, paper, or equipment on board isn’t permitted. Emirates provides crew with specific foil and heating equipment that’s been thoroughly tested for safety in aircraft ovens. Even if your baking tools are designed for regular ovens, they aren’t suitable for aircraft use without proper testing, so everyone needs to stick with what’s provided 🤷♀️
I wondered where was she 😮😮
l dont think she work airline what she is doing wrong should been sack this should been private why is airline tell the story Facebook do company know what cabin crew do l seen on abay selling they uniform l work airline when you leave has to been returned and airside pass well they are doing for money
I’m not entirely sure what you mean, but I’ll do my best to answer 😅 I used to work for Emirates and after resigning, I returned everything required, including all my uniform items and passes. Emirates expects you to return the same number of items they initially provided. However, if you need a different size, you may need to purchase certain items yourself. For example, I had hats in two different sizes-S and M-because I wore two different hairstyles. The S was too small for a French twist, while the M was a bit too big for a bun, so I bought the extra size from the company myself.
Only the items provided for free had to be returned upon resignation (I have a clearance letter from Emirates, that I returned everything). Some crew members keep a piece of their uniform as a memories, but unfortunately, a few might try to sell items online. However, these cases are exceptions, and it’s unfair to judge the entire crew community based on a few isolated incidents))
You're a lucky girl

She has a wee accent.Moldova?Can't get her,sorry
@@VK-M My accent simply reflects the fact that I speak more than one language-actually, I speak four) Not something to be ashamed of😉
Btw, I included subtitles in this video, but I guess that’s not something a person who’s trying to offend me would be interested in 🥰
Hi, Im actually interested in knowing what are the 4 languages that you speak?@JetstreamGinger
@@younesoutamricht3532 I speak English, Ukrainian, and Spanish)) I also know Russian, but due to the war in Ukraine, I no longer use it
I appreciate the tea, but feels wrong that your channel is the one telling us about Amanda, I feel like if and when she felt ready she should be the one talking about it. If not about the cake drama, but about resigning, kind of feels weird hearing it from someone else, like mean girl energy.
"mean girl energy" is Amanda filming things she souldn't (like where the keys are stocked, wtf, with terrorists out there these days, we can wonder if she is mad ? showing secret stewards cabin... resigning before posting the video. Sounds calculated. And above all, putting everyone in danger by baking things unallowed on the airplane. ). I hope that since there is proof that she deletes Emirats comments, she will be legally put on trial by the company. She was still working when this unallowed content was filmed. Dude/Girl, it is illegal and dangerous behavior. Your simplistic comment about "mean girl energy" is lost on you...
@@MoonBunnyOwO Thanks for your comment)) I get what you’re saying, but the point of Amanda’s story was to show how someone’s actions can get the whole crew into trouble at Emirates. In her case, she filmed a video she wasn’t supposed to (knowing the strict social media rules), broke safety rules (cake, boyfriend in the Crew Rest Compartment), and then posted it after she resigned because she knew it would cause problems. But instead of her, the crew from that flight got in trouble. This video isn’t focused on her, I only spent 2 minutes on the story to cover how breaking policies like this can lead to serious consequences for everyone.
Also, since she’s been deleting comments from others involved, it doesn’t look like she’s planning to share the full story. Hope that clears things up))
I disagree. It's actually great that someone has finally shared the truth about her publicly. Amanda is knowingly deceiving her viewers about still working for Emirates and also deleting comments that say otherwise. Shame on her.
True
Not cool putting someone down behind their back and trying to catch the hype based on someone else’s behaviour. Goes to show the kind of person who would do something like that and try to gain audience at someone else’s expense.
At least this video didn’t put anyone in trouble you know. 😉 Unlike “cake girl” vlog.
Who are you referring to? Just to clear things up, this video isn’t about Amanda -it’s about all the reasons you can get fired from Emirates. Amanda’s case is 2 minutes of overall length of the video. Her story and the layover examples are just to show how someone else’s actions can mess with your career. And honestly, I really hope no one tries to follow Amanda’s path of breaking social media rules just to grow fast on RUclips, when it puts your colleagues in trouble.
Unless you were personally involved in whatever it is that actually happened, I’d take anything a blogger who is publicly dishing out dirt on another blogger is saying with a pinch of salt. There are always two sides to any story.
@JetstreamGinger Sorry, but if it wasn’t hype that you are after, you wouldn’t be publicly naming anyone and finger pointing. Your whole post is focused on this one other blogger who is not here and who is unable to stand up for herself. Just a typical instigator behaviour in hope of getting more views at someone else’s expense.
@@ShadowOnTheGround389 That situation had a big impact on the entire crew community, creating even more pressure from the company. When people who were affected tried to comment on her videos, pointing out that what she did was prohibited, she deleted those comments. I didn’t say anything bad about her or make things up. I simply explained Emirates’ policies and showed a screenshot from her own video that clearly shows she violated those policies. It’s nothing personal. This part of my video is a warning for those dreaming of joining Emirates to become influencers and create videos like Amanda-it’s not allowed and can jeopardize other people’s careers. But of course, you’re free to have your own opinion about me, and that’s totally fine 🤷♀️
I am so disappointed with Amanda King. I unsuscribed, I discovered her lately and thought that Emirates was just kind towards her by letting her film (or that it is not a problem if it is her friend filming it all). She posts extremely deceiving contents and it doesn’t match the « pure, energetic » vibe she portrays in her videos. I hope that her persona on social media’s is not fake (now I doubt it) because this must the last thing she would have to be good about her.
How gross.
I get where you’re coming from. Maybe at first, she didn’t realize the impact her video would have and definitely didn’t mean any harm. But keeping the video up after all the drama and deleting comments from crew who pointed out it wasn’t okay is disappointing. I felt the same 😕
Thanks, I watched Amanda's video and was myself surprised about that cake🤔. 2) yes, you are lucky, 5 clean years💞🪷🥂
Hello, may I ask if I can use clear braces like invisalign or get dental crowns, dental veneers when I join the Emirates. My teeth aren't that perfect 🥲
I know some people who fly with Invisalign, but if we’re talking about official Image and Uniform policies, those aren’t allowed 😁 However, I’ve flown with many crew members who have veneers-they just need to look natural, and that’s all that matters))
@@JetstreamGinger thank you so much ❤️ this helps me a lot
Can you tell me the BMI range preferred by Emirates?
@@axxxa25 they follow the guidelines of a healthy BMI. You can calculate yours using an online BMI calculator to see if it falls within the healthy range))
