      Oh, girl, I know which accommodation you’re talking about - sorry you have to deal with that😔 Wishing you the best of luck in finding a new place soon. In the meantime, try making your room feel as homey as possible. Add some personal touches and decorations, even if it’s not ideal. I know it’s tough staying somewhere you don’t like, but having a cozy, familiar space to come back to can really help you feel less drained after those long flights 🙏

      The timing depends on the availability at the Training College. If you indicate in your application that you’re ready to join as soon as possible, they can complete all the formalities within a week if they need it. During your Golden Call, they’ll confirm your Date of Joining, which is the date of your flight))

    • @JetstreamGinger
      @JetstreamGinger  Місяць тому +1

      It is possible to take a live-out allowance, but you’ll need to either own an apartment in Dubai or have a close relative (like a spouse, parent, etc.) with UAE residency. If you don’t meet these criteria, you’ll need to live in company-provided accommodation or, if you prefer, you can rent a place at your own expense 😊

    • @JetstreamGinger
      @JetstreamGinger  Місяць тому

      Hey) I’m not a recruiter, so I can’t say for certain if this might affect anything in the future. If you’re able to contact Emirates or the third-party hiring company to reschedule your assessment day for December, that would be the best option. They definitely won’t blacklist you, but I’m not sure if it might affect getting an invitation to another assessment day. If it does, you can always try attending an Open Day instead, as no invitation is needed for that😊 Best of luck 🍀

    Do you receive allowance before you start training when you move to Dubai for emirates

    • @JetstreamGinger
      @JetstreamGinger  Місяць тому +3

      When I arrived, I received an advance allowance that was half of my basic salary. At the end of my first month, instead of a full salary, I received half, as the advance was deducted. This system is designed to help newjoiners who may not have savings, so they don’t struggle financially during their initial period. Hope that makes sense 🥰

    Hi! I have a question about accommodation. If I wanna live out with my mom and little sister, basically they will be my dependent, will emirates allow an allowance?
    They have no one except me, so I don’t want them to live afar from me. So is it possible for me to bring them in Dubai and live out with them? Will emirates provide me the allowance?
    Can you please give me an answer for this? I'm really looking forward.
    Thanks in advance.

    • @JetstreamGinger
      @JetstreamGinger  Місяць тому

      You can ask for live-out allowance to live with your mum and sister, but they need to have UAE residency visa. You can apply for a sponsorship visa for your mum, but as far as I remember cabin crew salary is not enough for a sponsorship visa for parents (fine for a husband/wife). Also schools in Dubai are really expensive if you want your sister to attend school in Dubai.

    Hi! I have a question about the accomodation . If you have a boyfriend and want to take him with you, is it allowed? How does the company help or proceed in these cases? It is normal that if we are sharing an apartment with 1 or 2 people that a boyfriend of mine will not be allowed, but does the company help in these cases? keep in mind that we are not married. And Is it really true that men are not allowed in those apartments?

    • @JetstreamGinger
      @JetstreamGinger  Місяць тому +3

      He can stay in your apartment as a long-term visitor. However, if I’m not mistaken, there’s a limit of 2 months per year for all your long-term visitors combined. Each visit cannot exceed one month, and your flatmates will need to sign an agreement indicating they’re comfortable with you having a long-term visitor.
      It’s also allowed to have visitors of a different gender, as this rule was changed some time ago. However, your long-term visitor cannot hold UAE residency.
      Regarding living together permanently: your boyfriend won’t be allowed to live with you in crew accommodation. If he wants to move to Dubai and live with you, you would need to rent or purchase an apartment. Also, if you get married and he has a UAE-residency, you could apply for a live-out allowance.

In any other cases company won’t provide you with a live-out allowance (no, to have a boyfriend is not enough) 😄

    • @JetstreamGinger
      @JetstreamGinger  Місяць тому +3

      It depends on what you’re looking for 🤷‍♀️ Emirates based in Dubai, offers higher salaries and a broader range of destinations. Etihad based in Abu Dhabi, has slightly lower salaries and fewer destinations but atmosphere inside the company is slightly better. Plus, Etihad crew can purchase discounted business class tickets, while at Emirates, only pursers have access to those perks))
      If your goal is to travel as many destinations as possible and safe money, I think Emirates is better. If you want to have better tickets discounts and more friendly work environment, then Etihad)

      I can say that Etihad offers similar standards when it comes to accommodation.

But they provide shuttles to mall, the beach, and they can even use free Etihad bus service to Dubai, which is super nice))
