A just below surface dive into my experience as a Cabin Crew / Flight Attendant while operating from the platform of Etihad Airways, based in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Once a dream which manifested in a setting that gave me much more than I had anticipated. LIFE indeed is a trip, an adventure, a flight.... once YOUR mind is made up and YOU go after what YOU truly want it WILL be much better to play the game of LIFE. I couldn't have possibly covered a quarter of my entire experience however I wish to use this as an INspiration to someone embarking on the journey of flying and/or just someone wanting a glimpse of what INpired me which in turn may INspire them and someone else! Happy flying!!!

And just a quick grooming confirmation about the hair for males - Firstly, can hair length be really short (nearly showing skin). Secondly, is full beard allowed?

Yes indeed! The caribbean flavor is necessary too😁 … At the time of my interview we were given a few places to select from for the open day and I went to Abu Dhabi for that.

Have a look at the career pages of different airlines, see what interests you etc and start sending out applications. Don’t be shy to do follow up calls within two weeks of sending your application if you don’t hear back from them, it’ll show that you’re interested. All the best to your flying career!!

Mc Neil I'm just concerned about hair length I'm a guy & I love semi long hair,over there I've seen men keep short hair,kindly tell me can't I do anything in this regard,instead of cutting can't I use hair products like wax/gel,so that I would keep them & won't need to cut them so they would look subtle & smart while I'm working,looking forward to your answer!

@mcneilgriffith2024 Жыл бұрын

There are grooming standards that must be adhered to for the purpose of maintaining that uniform look…. I’d say go for the interview first and when you’re offered the job you’ll do what’s necessary to maintain like keeping within the range etc … maybe their hair lengths have been revised, I don’t know as I’ve already moved on from flying and keep in mind those grooming standards vary from airline to airline too.

@mcneilgriffith2024 2 ай бұрын

As long as you can maintain it to look the standard length it wouldn’t matter as I’ve met people with long hair who style it to standard ….

Since you get annual 30 days paid leave, so how someone can't visit home once a year for whole month?? 🤔🤔

@mcneilgriffith2024 2 жыл бұрын

Each airline has its own structure for leave etc…. From what I recall at EY It’s broken down into blocks up to two weeks or slots of five or 6 days which add up to the total 30, however not the entire 30 at once. There were also options at various times of unpaid leave which folk would take … I’d recommend looking up forums or blogs on the subject where I am sure individuals share a whole lot more. This video was for the sole purpose of sharing snippets of my flying days. 😊😊

Hi, would you be able to share any information on Etihad tattoo policy? I have a tattoo on my upper arm but i am not sure if it's an automatic disqualification. Thanks:)

@mcneilgriffith2024 Жыл бұрын

Your tattoos are your personal business as long as they’re not visible you’re fine. I know quite a bit of people with tattoos from my days at the airline(even I’ve got my own) but I’d do first things first(apply, go for an interview and ask questions) … good luck, the job is rewarding based on what you’re looking to extract from the overall experience.

@@ricm2703 the shirts are long sleeve for men and I can’t remember if the tattoos had to be declared.(I got recruited a while back and have already left) .. Nonetheless not visible is not an issue … let me recommend accessing the career/recruitment page on their website and doing a read up to know the airline a bit better, if you’re really keen on joining. In the meantime I wish you best of luck on your endeavor.

@@mcneilgriffith2024 i did some research but from what i am getting , there seems to be certain limitations with the non-visible policy. For example i saw a diagram on one of the Etihad pages that i follow on Fbk where the full length of your arms must be tattoo free at least . Unfortunately i don't know how accuracy that info is. I applied with Qatar last month and got rejected for it. Btw I am from Trinidad. Thanks so much for providing the feedback .

Etihad to me would come with more of my preferences including living in the lovely UAE and airline culture at the time. I’m an explorer and follow my life path so when life ignites a fire in me I GO FOR IT without hesitation… salaries I won’t discuss here however salaries are earned based on basic pay along with flying hours, destination, rank, etc..

I’ve double checked from ex colleagues at the airline and no one seems to know the max age for recruiting however from what I recall I met folks who joined in their late 40s and even worked with individuals who were in their early 50s…. I’d recommend applying if you’re interested nonetheless and then do a follow up call to HR department (look up the number of your respective airline of interest) … all the best!
