Seems like Emirates is getting more strict everyday and laying off people who work their a$* off for the company is absurd 😠😠😠😠 At least give them ground jobs or something not lay them off 🙄😒😠 I just hope things get better and the aviation industry heals from this pandemic🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 Btw How do you do 🙂
Well, I dont know nowadays, but during my time in EK (2010-2013) not being able to do the flight back to dubai did not mean offloading 50 passengers. I remember I got sick and couldnt do the flight back BKK-DXB and the purser told me "dont worry, thats why there are A positions. They can take your door and area". I dont know if today they still have A positions. (In A380 we used to have ML4A MR4A ML3 and one or two more in the upper deck...)
From 2016-17 onwards, A position on a b777 got removed (R5A). Airbus is different of course for DF ops and sweethearts. Maybe I got it wrong and policies are different in EK, but I feel quite confident (from IATA regulations) saying that if an aircraft is full and you have a 50 pax : 1 crew ratio, and A positions are missing, the exceeding allowed pax need to be offloaded. But I might be wrong. Thanks for adding value with your comment! Didn't think about the A positions
@@WishCasting Old times.... hehe. I remember I was "pure" A380. I got crossed trained in 2012 for B777 but only flew it twice. There was this competition between A380 crew and "main fleet" crew. Advantages of A380: only one turnaround (Jeddah). Advantage of main fleet: many destinations more. But everything changed sine then. Happy to help! :-)
Imagine what would happen if the supervisor got robbed when the team is in their uniform. Supervisor: Help me call the police! Cabin Crew: We are strictly forbidden to use our mobile phone while in our uniform. Let’s walk to the nearest store and pray they have a landline phone that we can borrow.
This is so crazy to me. I work for the biggest airline in the UK and I couldn’t imagine them imposing these rules especially the phones. I wish crew from emirates could strike to change things but unfortunately it’ll never happen because of the type of country Dubai is . I hope crew know that these rules aren’t normal and could never happen in western countries xx
Another great video. I’m your biggest fan in the USA. Worked several years as Cabin Crew for American Airlines. Was working as “extra” on flight to Chicago as the flight was booked to capacity. Purser directed me to assist in the lower galley during boarding. There was a flight service manager from another base who was on the flight as a passenger. This manager wrote me up for get this . . . not passing out magazines during boarding. Duh. I was assisting, as directed, in the lower galley. Was called to my manager’s office to give a full account as to what happened. This was on my day off, with no pay. Everything worked out in my favor. I was not even given a warning. But, what a complete hassle and waste of my time and energy.
What about being reported because on your free time you went to the office to grab your duty free pouch and you're stopped by some lady who states that in her opinion your top is "extremely see through" and she's going to report you for that... Never in my life I have worn anything see-though and never in my life I wore anything disrespectful and now this? I swear to God this company is a circus. Not only you have to expect report on-board, but also in your free time! Honestly - People should never consider Emirates as a regular employer, but rather a seasonal job to do when you're young. Because If you can be reported and lose your job for such a ridiculous thing, you can never trust this company and it's pay to have a decent, stable life.
I have heard that it costs an airline between 20 to 30k to train a new recruit to be a flight attendant. Then firing them for a small slip is just going to cost them more money to replace that flight attendant. This looks like a huge waste of money. In these difficult times, should they not consider consolidating their losses by keeping the crew they have, because they have invested so much time and money in their training ?
You heard right! It's expensive to train crew! They've probably figured out that firing and lowering wages and benefits for new contracts is cheaper than keeping crew avoiding training costs.
Firing is at unbelievable levels here - not only in the Airlines and not only because of the covid 19, it's been happening for years.. In some sectors, you work for 3 - 6ths max! Who controls HR??????? The companies should look into it closely - they loose more than they gain - training for each new employee, visa, etc... The same thousands of employees move from one company to another, they are the same people, not better - not worse, but yet they get fired and hired. If you think, that in a bank, probably nobody who talks to you has been there for more than a year.... Specific way of business..
you are looking for rationalism where there is none. most people get fired not because they are not good at their job but because the management don't like them or other emotional nonsense. And it is also a power game.
well i’m from iran and before following your videos i’d always intented to join emirates airline and work as FA but after watching ur videos u totally changed my mind
Cabin crew now for 43 years omg how horrible they treat there staff its a shame such a wonderfull airline to fly with but underneath the veneer another world
Well said Orlando. I totally agree with you. It's not nice to be cut off for the mistake that happened long time ago because of these silly reasons. That would be more professional and elegant if the supervisor willing to talk about the issue right on the spot face to face at the right time. The crew will also respect them more. Not only in the airlines company tho, we need this attitude at any work field
I love the Emirates employees. I am a retired flight attendant with 26 years. When I was hired we had grooming supervisors swarming the airport to see if you were in regulation and weight checks. I was with American Airlines prior to that TWA. Our flight attendants are unionized so we had some protections..
Smiling can be questionable or an invitation and sometimes dubious. You are better off smiling after you’ve greeted the person the first time. Constantly smiling is not respectable then we ask what do you want and is there something wrong. There are rules to smiling. Even with males if you add a dab of lipstick you appear to be smiling. Then you don’t have to smile. Don’t be cheap with makeup. A lay over is your time to relax. Your work performance at any given moment and sound judgement depends on how well you have rested. Concerns are rightfully so since medical care and insurance is dubious in any foreign country.
The best idea is to identify first if the issue is job related and performance related and is it part of you job description and role for the day. If it’s not, then it’s a nonissue. A sunburn can be dangerous and when see blisters it may need medical attention. So there should be rules, like this is not your vacation and you are expected to perform at work so wear sunblock and avoid the sun.
Orlando you did look FANTASTIC in the uniform! I'm no longer with my former airline BA... I took a voluntary redundancy package. Thank you for the excellent videos. I think they will help many people to make good decisions.
Thanks DJ! How come you quit? Such a shame! Thanks for the compliment and yes, our objective is to help people out, both in leading the way through the tough selection process, but also making everyone aware of the potential unpleasant situations you could be facing onboard a flight
I worked 12 yrs for Latam airlines Brazil, and now i know where the company took this mindset from. It was exactly the same.. silly reports, firing threats were constant, strict rules and spoiled passengers. It almos cost my mental health so i decided to leave
Layover in AMS.. on the way back I told one of my ML4 / MR4 fellow crew that I visited my home in the south of the country. Upon landing in DXB she told the supervisor and the next day I had an invite to come to HQ for a chat. I felt so betrayed because she was super nice on the flight. Couple of months later I ran into her at her apartment building because my friend lives there.. Ofcourse she denied and was super sweet again... "hiiii how are youuu??" I was like 🤦♂️😐👁️👁️ Side note; my family lives about 58KM from the airport
There you have it! What an embarrassing colleague to have! I feel you Benyi... What did she hope to get from that report? What a traitor, backstabbing mentality... I'm glad that you said this, our audience will finally have proof that what we're saying on this channel isn't fictitious but true to the bone! Thanks again! Orlando @wishcasting
Oh gosh, I had one of those in my last job. I’m pretty confident that she was actively trying to get me fired. She was the deputy manager and I trusted her just once, fortunately a betrayal for a minor infraction. After that I was wary no matter how nice she seemed.
Thank you for the video, as usual we got amazing content in your videos👌! And the mentality that is going on art he moment is not only in emirates, I presently work in an offshore and internationally shipping company here in Mauritius and people get promoted if they as slick well or if they report others (whether it is true or not). Now go figure about the competency outcomes from people like that. I think that covid hit so many of us financially and now it turned out that everyone only think about their own self and are ready to get ride of others in order to secure themselves. It is unfortunate tho
I'm a flight attendant at a regional airline and what your reports are for us are meetings, they're usually nothing unless you're on your final strike or occurrence (occurances are non-attendance related vs strikes are) usually your first time offense at my airline you get a warning, we also have a union so it depends on the situation
I work in the USA. The faa mandates that minimum crew must be on the plane per every fifty seats. Empty or occupied. For example, the 737 has around 180 seats. Four flight attendants are required. Regardless of the load of customers. If one fa is missing, boarding cannot comence.
Dont forget those CSV who give feedback and then start fullying you until you lose it and then leads to a report... jesus im so happy im out of that negativity! Supervisors report because they have no real leadership skills, and the way they talk to crew sometimes only escalate the issue rather than having the crew thinking about it positively.
A Supervisor that submit too many reports, He or She should be called out, and their ability to manage should be questioned. On a defunct carrier, I worked as a base secretary. One particular CSM got called in and actually downgraded because of her petty abuse of power and reports. It was so bad at one point that this individual had crew call out, because they did not want to work with here. Any one that ever worked the L1011 clearly knows that to close that door you must move the arming lever to the armed position and once the door closed you place the lever on the dissarm position. This individual wrote a Cabin Crew for wrongfully and careless door operation. Oh Tanja was the Queen of Petty.
emirates future FA need to be robots....there is no other way as that silly Airline doesn't understand that currently humans are doing that job and not puppets.
I was in Saudia. Supervisors used to reduce girls to tears. Enjoy insulting them and belittling them. Threaten to offload them. There were no mobile phones those days.
Yes seriously, I mean I’m ground crew and I routinely get away with tipping a bit of bottled water over my head when we get hot on the airfield. I never bother with makeup and my hair is forever windswept. I’m not fashionable.
As courtesy i.asked if i could go.home..wasfearful anything went wrong trying to get back to crew hotel on time to.go home to DXB ! only went home twice tho..was too on edge there be a traffic incident thatd close the road!
My friend got sunburnt on a 13hr mauritious and lasted 30min on flight b4 goin sick and ending up in cockpit. she never got in trouble tho. love ur vids. i miss ek lots defo seems strict now..we got away with lots more!! ps i got a few stories if ur interested...
Me hearing about the tan part "Thank goodness I'm dark skin" Although I have no intention in becoming a flight attendant. I'm just watching it cos youtube recommended it😅
💯 True and happening.. Typical Middle East airline culture.The smile in the cabin even without passenger can really be annoying. In QR, we say smiles on hats on🤣🤣🤣 I’m glad i’m done with it.
Hi I’m new here I’m aspiring to be a cabin crew overall is it possible to do a video on guidances for a type one diabetic it’s been my dream but I’m scared they won’t hire me.. not emirates but overall
How about just follow company rules and regulations? Supervisors have their limits, they could have probably briefed 20 crew about the same issue and by reporting it, it makes the managerr aware that this rule is not being followed by the crew. That's how performance management works to ensure the airline crew are up to standard. They became supervisors for a reason.
Hey Orlando really informative video. Just a quick question are there only female cabin crew supervisor? Can a male cabin crew also become a supervisor?
I think you deserve to be a cabin crew supervisor auditor. 😅😇 Before they send emails or reports, they must verify and settle it with you sir, if it's legit. 😅🤣
They have every right to be picky and punish when something out of standards happens. Emirates doesn't punish supervisors being too strict, there is no way that'll ever happen. But they should punish reporting behind people's back. That's for sure.
Good enough not that we passengers know that Emirates is a sweat shop,what can we do as passengers to improve the situation? Can we give commendations and other things to encourage the airlines to improve?
Some people will never like you regardless of what you do some of the supervisors are like that not only on Emirates or airline companies but even other companies ,, supervisors do that 😏😏😏😏😏
Can you do a video asking for former (or even current) Emirates supervisors to contact you with their story of "reporting" their crew members (who now got fired as a result). This will be a video of Emirates (or ex) supervisors asking for forgiveness from their crew who they might have unnecessarily reported in the past and are now terminated.
i had my worse experience ever as a passenger of emirates, i got threatend to be jailedin dubai for allegedly smoking in toilet, but i dont even smoke, very bad airline ruined my flight at the beginning on my way from europe to australia
Airlines in general need to be pressured to treat their employees better. This is the case across the board in the industry and I do not just mean Emirates but airlines in general. I am a medical doctor who has been repeatedly the victim of the backstabbing workplace culture in hospitals from nurses, doctors and patients and their families. I can say from personal experience, this does a great deal of damage to our collective morale and standing as health care providers. Nobody should have to put up with this kind of nonsense. Supervisors need to have the insight to distinguish between legitimate complaints and ludicrous ones. Those unable to distinguish between the two should NOT be in a position of authority.
Had this at the airline I used to work for….a few individual little Nazi empire builders who would sell their own grandmothers if it would benefit them. Basically mega inferiority complex and massive insecurities.
Ok, I get some of this. But, I would like to know the benefits of reporting? The supervisors should absolutely give feedback. My question remains there has to be material benefits for people behaving like petty morons, especially in the era of air travel industry we are living now what is the purpose. So what if someone goes outside the 40 mile range? Did they do their job correctly? and did they perform all the tasks correctly and showed up on time? Ok then... WHAT is the benefit of reporting crap. This is a serious question? Is it monetary? Is it sexual? is it personal gain? WTF how supervisors could possibly behave that way.
I have been reported by instructor five time when i was a Cabin Crew.She always reported me I don’t know why she hated me.Five time i flew with her and all five times she reported me.And do you know what did i do?😃on the six time flight with her she didn’t reported me but I reported her😃I texted terrible things about her and after that she never reported me🤣
June 2018, DXB to MNL. Coming from a 5 day medical convention. Male middle eastern (non-arab) FA (non-smiling) carelessly opened a can of coke to serve the passenger next to me... spilled almost a quarter on my pants. The FA brought a few sheets of napkin, no apologies! I asked if if he won't apologize so he gave a non-sincere one (very obvious on facial reaction). I talked to him at the galley and asked if his unsincere attitude was because I am a Filipino or dark-skinned? He kept mum, still with that cynical expression. I told him that having fairer skin doesn't make one superior over others and that no one deserves such treatment, regardless of nationality or line of work. The Filipina purser stepped-in, only then did this FA changed his demeanor. I am an educated person and I don't one anyone to lose his/her job. I didn't make a formal complaint but I hope this person has changed for his own sake. Thanks!
Most of supervisors are a pro backstabbers. If any of you here watching this video, or reading this comment, put yourself together, are you really insecure of yourself and it makes you feel so good reporting us at all time? Remember you're also a human and u make mistakes too. But Karma always find its way. Btw, if only I can report you just because you have a very uncomfortable old looking face, you'd be fired by now oh supervisors. Lol lots of love, from us the brights and youngs. ;)

There are things very similar to reality shows online about Emirates.

The term English is "a cabin crew member," not "a cabin crew" unless you are referring to the whole cabin crew team.
A Supervisor that submit too many reports, He or She should be called out, and their ability to manage should be questioned.

Can’t stand EK, especially their crew due to their uptight demeanour, they are almost fanatical about being in their beige uniforms.
It isn't that they'd have to offload 50 passengers. You cannot operate the flight period unless there is one per 50 seats (seats, not passengers).
Thanks for that! I couldn't remember, wasn't sure. Appreciated!

Me hearing about the tan part
"Thank goodness I'm dark skin"
Although I have no intention in becoming a flight attendant. I'm just watching it cos youtube recommended it😅
I'm curious, do cabin crew pursers also rat on pilots as well? Are they allowed to do that? How was the interaction between pilots and cabin crew?
I like his videos. He would be a successful psychologist -) he could cure people with his soft voice and a moderate distance -)
I love to hear this stories. Thx!!
2:53 that reaction of the female "supervisor" is the best! kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Reported for a passenger seeing me drink coffee during a briefing... I'd get reported daily 😂
O love your videos. So much bitter truth.... Behind the scenes - behind the red lipstick - it should be the title.
Awweee you guys were in Mauritius ❤️so close to me tho😩!
We could've met! ☺️
@@WishCasting definitely!!! Hopefully in the future🤞🏽❤️
Who reports on the supervisors then? Can passengers do that?
💯 True and happening.. Typical Middle East airline culture.The smile in the cabin even without passenger can really be annoying. In QR, we say smiles on hats on🤣🤣🤣 I’m glad i’m done with it.
I like the way u do thanx
thank you! ☺️
Hi I’m new here I’m aspiring to be a cabin crew overall is it possible to do a video on guidances for a type one diabetic it’s been my dream but I’m scared they won’t hire me.. not emirates but overall
Wow, I love your Emirates stories! I will NEVER fly with them.
😅😅😅😂😂
How about just follow company rules and regulations? Supervisors have their limits, they could have probably briefed 20 crew about the same issue and by reporting it, it makes the managerr aware that this rule is not being followed by the crew. That's how performance management works to ensure the airline crew are up to standard. They became supervisors for a reason.
Hey Orlando really informative video. Just a quick question are there only female cabin crew supervisor? Can a male cabin crew also become a supervisor?
Yes anyone can be a supervisor!
2:50 I’m just aaaasking hahahahahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
It seems to me that the supervisor is getting bonus for reporting a crew error.
They make them feel better in that way... What a bad attitude for them
How about if crew did what they are expected to do? The supervisors wouldn't have anything to report. Or?
I think you deserve to be a cabin crew supervisor auditor. 😅😇
Before they send emails or reports, they must verify and settle it with you sir, if it's legit. 😅🤣
Wow amazing resort thanks sharing with us ,working cabin crew?
If a manger is caught doing any of things u mentioned in the video what consequence do they face?
They have every right to be picky and punish when something out of standards happens. Emirates doesn't punish supervisors being too strict, there is no way that'll ever happen. But they should punish reporting behind people's back. That's for sure.
Thank god I never made the decision apply Emirates this company should like high school than an actual job
Good enough not that we passengers know that Emirates is a sweat shop,what can we do as passengers to improve the situation? Can we give commendations and other things to encourage the airlines to improve?
I can’t speak for the airlines, but I can practically guarantee that a positive commendation from a passenger would make a difference.
Some people will never like you regardless of what you do some of the supervisors are like that not only on Emirates or airline companies but even other companies ,, supervisors do that 😏😏😏😏😏
Can you do a video asking for former (or even current) Emirates supervisors to contact you with their story of "reporting" their crew members (who now got fired as a result). This will be a video of Emirates (or ex) supervisors asking for forgiveness from their crew who they might have unnecessarily reported in the past and are now terminated.
Thats crazy supervisors reporting little issues.... report should be done that is really valid mistake....
Exactly!!
Can us passengers report the supervisor or the purser
How to apply to emirates crwe
wow, i would off been on the first day. i got too much of an attitude to put up with this bs 😁
Is there any problem with female flight attendants and pilots?
I am your true fan
Amazing!! ❤️
i had my worse experience ever as a passenger of emirates, i got threatend to be jailedin dubai for allegedly smoking in toilet, but i dont even smoke, very bad airline ruined my flight at the beginning on my way from europe to australia
There must be a better way to travel the world and get paid for it. This type of behaviour by supervisors is just harrassment.
Yes it's like hunting people down sometimes. Luckily it doesn't happen often
Airlines in general need to be pressured to treat their employees better. This is the case across the board in the industry and I do not just mean Emirates but airlines in general. I am a medical doctor who has been repeatedly the victim of the backstabbing workplace culture in hospitals from nurses, doctors and patients and their families. I can say from personal experience, this does a great deal of damage to our collective morale and standing as health care providers. Nobody should have to put up with this kind of nonsense. Supervisors need to have the insight to distinguish between legitimate complaints and ludicrous ones. Those unable to distinguish between the two should NOT be in a position of authority.
My only question is, is there a way for the cabin crew to speak up against their supervisors?
Cabin crew can report their super visors if they did something wrong as well.
Yes, only racism issue, but if u dare to against, don't u think they will try their best to take revenge?
Had this at the airline I used to work for….a few individual little Nazi empire builders who would sell their own grandmothers if it would benefit them. Basically mega inferiority complex and massive insecurities.
Emirates used to be my dream. Looks like that dream is broken now
Please make a video on what we can do after cabin crew job 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 please ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️ love you
Please make a request on our Facebook Group "Emirates Wannabees Forum", if many people want it too, I'll cover it ;)
Ok, I get some of this. But, I would like to know the benefits of reporting? The supervisors should absolutely give feedback. My question remains there has to be material benefits for people behaving like petty morons, especially in the era of air travel industry we are living now what is the purpose. So what if someone goes outside the 40 mile range? Did they do their job correctly? and did they perform all the tasks correctly and showed up on time? Ok then... WHAT is the benefit of reporting crap. This is a serious question? Is it monetary? Is it sexual? is it personal gain? WTF how supervisors could possibly behave that way.
Should i declare my scar in my wrist but it is not bisible when i wear long sleeve?
Emirates sounds like a fun place to work
It is!
Should i declare my acars even even though they are visible when wearing long sleeves?
👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻
So how do supervisor get the sack?
They are too strict
I have been reported by instructor five time when i was a Cabin Crew.She always reported me I don’t know why she hated me.Five time i flew with her and all five times she reported me.And do you know what did i do?😃on the six time flight with her she didn’t reported me but I reported her😃I texted terrible things about her and after that she never reported me🤣
Is this shit normal with other airlines..?
I hope I make my own stories of being bullied by my supervisors as long as I join Emirates 😍😍
Can male cabin crew use concealer to hide acne and scars on face?
Yes you can
Thank you very much! You are a great help to me and i hope i can be a cabin crew in Emirates😊
June 2018, DXB to MNL. Coming from a 5 day medical convention. Male middle eastern (non-arab) FA (non-smiling) carelessly opened a can of coke to serve the passenger next to me... spilled almost a quarter on my pants. The FA brought a few sheets of napkin, no apologies! I asked if if he won't apologize so he gave a non-sincere one (very obvious on facial reaction). I talked to him at the galley and asked if his unsincere attitude was because I am a Filipino or dark-skinned? He kept mum, still with that cynical expression. I told him that having fairer skin doesn't make one superior over others and that no one deserves such treatment, regardless of nationality or line of work. The Filipina purser stepped-in, only then did this FA changed his demeanor.
I am an educated person and I don't one anyone to lose his/her job. I didn't make a formal complaint but I hope this person has changed for his own sake. Thanks!
By the way, that was my 4th flight with Emirates, the previous 3 were all good. Flight crew such as that man gives Emirates and most crew a bad name.
I don't think he cared about your color. He just didn't care at all.
Most of supervisors are a pro backstabbers. If any of you here watching this video, or reading this comment, put yourself together, are you really insecure of yourself and it makes you feel so good reporting us at all time? Remember you're also a human and u make mistakes too. But Karma always find its way. Btw, if only I can report you just because you have a very uncomfortable old looking face, you'd be fired by now oh supervisors. Lol lots of love, from us the brights and youngs. ;)
Hey orlanda.....you voice is so satisfying 😘pls can you help me by letting us know do Emirates hire indian cabin crew🙏
First of all learn how to write people's names. Lol
