So long Charmaine... and thanks for all the sweets

    The training for Cabin Crew varies from airline to airline. Some have intensive safety/customer service instruction, others simply tell you what you need to know to alloy you to meet government safety requirements. My advice would be to contact the airlines direct. They all tend to have recruitment pages with up to the minute advice and notice about vacancies. Good luck!

    Aberdeen never got a flippin video and they pulled plug on us in 1995!! Mind you, we didn't so much go out with a bang as with a wheeze (like that sound you get if you step on a set of bagpipes) Recognise a few faces. Those were the days

    British Airways ha! what a joke, might aswell re-name it London Airways, good vid mate, shame they closed the base.

  • @wonderfulsomeone
    @wonderfulsomeone 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Simplification, which basically involves pulling all resourses back to London. "British" Airways mainline no longer employs any uniformed staff north of Hounslow. Sad.

    @celtostara 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    What a blast … so many familiar faces. It’s not until you see this that you realise how many you remember. Some wonderfully nice crew get recognition here and rightly so. They made the trail from Glasgow to London and back much more bearable. Good luck to all of them!

    @wonderfulsomeone I was Cabin Crew with another airline based at NCL, i had to leave the profession due to injury after an accident. I was gutted, my whole life came to an end. This vid brings back so, so many good memorys and even brought a tear to my eyes. Thanks, made me feel human again. xxxxx
