I'm taking this training course in a few weeks and I just had to tell you I loved your video! You explain every single detail so well, I believe I am more prepared to go now, thank you so much for your help!! You have a new subscriber :)
EasyJet pay for the hotel when your training if you don’t live within 90mins of your training base, training and uniform is free (taken out of wages for first few months) :)
Eurowings ( Lufthansa) pay for your hotel if you are not based where the training is ( almost everyone gets a hotel). Your uniform is free and nothing is taken from your wages for your uniform. You don’t only get a nice hotel including breakfast but they also pay you for taking part in the course. You only have to pay for transport to get to the training centre and home at the end of the course. Flights within the course are paid by eurowings. Really glad about our conditions when I hear all of your experiences.
Thank you so much for this video. It’s been my dream to become cabin crew since I was a kid, I’m planning to apply next year as I don’t think my customer service experience is sufficient. I really hope to be successful. Take care and stay safe ❤️
You are very welcome! I'm glad you found it helpful. You don't really need that much customer service experience (a few months is enough), the main thing is that you need to speak and understand English well. I'm pretty sure you will be successful. Take care of yourself too! 😊
I’m a flight attendant here in the US and most of our airlines here will pay for your accommodations during training. My airline paid for accommodation and gave us a debit card for food. That really helps because you well know, we don’t make a lot of money the first year.
Hi ! Can i ask, if you get your wings and start flying but you dont like the expierence or whatever and want to leave the job, do you have to pay anything for the training or something ? Do they sanction you ? And how long do I have to give notice of my resignation? Thank you for the great content it is really helpful !
Hi, no you don't need to pay anything if you leave. No sanction, nothing. I think 1 month's notice is okay (that's what I did and what many others do) but many also quit on the same day and leave. You have 100% freedom. Just weigh out the pros and cons for your own situation. I hope this helps & all the very best!
Im doing my training course next month. And the good news is course this year 2022 is free. I remember i paid in 2018 in other cabin crew training for atleast 3,000 euros except transportation and house rent, food and bills. Must: ●English knowledge ●Willingness to achieve your dream ●know how to swim ●healthy mind, body and soul:)
This was useful. Thank you. I just had an interview yesterday. I needed to gather some information about the training expenses and benefits. The recruiter told me they don't pay for accommodation while being at the trainings. Also they don't pay healthcare and retirement. I have decided to withdraw my application. Because of that and not being able to choose my country as a base. Thank you so much for this video.
You are such a beautiful soul, really appreciate how detailed and clear your information is. May I ask about the accommodation They arrange in Hahn? Is there an option to be in single accommodation , I.e. not share with anyone. Of course I’m sure they would charge more, but I would rather pay a bit extra and be more comfortable than sharing. Thank you so much 😊
Hi Mark, sorry this reply is a little late. I'm glaf you have found these videos to be helpful. You can get single accommodation but you might need to find it yourself - On Air bomb or a local accommodation website perhaps. I'm sure that won't be a problem 😊

Love your videos! I will be starting my Ryanair/Buzz training course in just a couple weeks. How did you get in touch with other people prior to the training course start? I would like to chat with folks on the same course so we could possibly arrange accommodation together. (The training is in Poland and they don't provide a hotel assignment like they do on Germany). THank you! Your videos are so inspirational. I'm not 100% sure if Ryanair is for me, but I definitely need to try it before I can judge. I have flown and traveled all over the world, so I enjoy traveling and actually walking through airports :D So I figured if I added a uniform, it might give me another boost of confidence :) All the best to you girl!
Thank you Linda! Because I worked for Ryanair before the pandemic, assessment day was in person so I met people there. However I think these days people might be meeting on Facebook. Have a look because you might find some groups. Crewlinke might be able to connect you if you ask. I like your attitude and point of view! Sometimes it's just about trying something new. I wish you all the best on your journey.
I'm probably going to go for this job once I finish college in the Summer. These videos have done really good at clearing up my initial worries, such as accommodation at the training days. Can you request to get a training at a base in the country you live in? (I'm in Scotland and probably applying for one of the Scottish bases) or do you just get what you are given?
Fabulous video. What sort of photo do you have to upload as part of the application form? Is it like smart suits etc. Birmingham would be my preferred base in applying, it states in the application that you will train in Birmingham as well I believe.
@@TabithaLaker I got offered the job!! (Also had an interview at Jet2 and got that job, so took jet2!) Start training in March :D thank you for your videos
Hello! Thank you for your detailed videos, they're precious. I would like to know if you have to buy for your own shoes, maybe you said it but I did understand. Thank you!
In Hahn there is a gym at a hotel called My Place. You can train and enjoy the sauna there. I think it costs about 9 euros, but they might have a deal with the employer where you can get in free. Just check.
I just saw that lidl is pretty near by, how long of a walk would it approximately take you to walk that distance 🤍 I was thinking buying majority of my groceries from there.
Hi Tabitha! Really enjoyed your videos, and I do have to say that I am a bit chocked to know that other people were "disrespectful" to you because of your skin color, which is something that nowadays shouldn't happen anymore. Apart from that, wish you all the best, good luck and keep posting videos!
Hi Catarina, that was my suspision. It definitely wasn't nice but I got through it. I'm no longer working there but I would still like to share my story to help others on their possible journey.
@@TabithaLaker Okay thank you! I’m a bit concerned because maybe it can be not right, because of the social media thing. But I don’t talk about restricted things in the video. Only the conversion, initial, and the main training bases. Let’s see.
Hello, This videos are very helpful, thank you!!!! I have a question, if you don’t accept the accommodation that they offer you, do they provide you links or something for another one?
If you do not accept their accommodation, you can find your own accommodation. I don't think they provide links. You could look on Airbnb or some other local accommodation websites.
When you get your base? Is there any way to change that base, say for instance if your wanted your home base? Dublin for instance, could you negotiate with them or swap bases with someone else? Thanks keep up the good work! ✈️
You can go to deichmann for a cheap pair or go Clarkes if you want something of a bit better quality, or you can go to one of the 'cabin crew shoes' websites and see what they have avaiilable - but it's more a decision of how high and padded/comfortable you want your shoes rather than where to get them. At Least with these first 2 options you can go and try them on.
Hi Tabitha Thank you so much for making this video. I want to be a flight attendant and I'm a little nervous 😩 How did you find the interview? Did you find the training hard? Thank you
Hey Ana, you are very welcome! The interview was very relaxed. The people were nice. Of course they have to be because they want to recruit new crew 😃The training was a bit hard but not impossible. I just studied every day to avoiding failing the exams.
Hello, Dear. Hope you are well and thanking you for sharing insights in RA. My question if I may, I recently received an online interview this week. But then I have applied for a Post at indeed with an advertisement “Cabin Crew: Training -Manchester”… it is attached to the email a table saying training is on 10/19 and 10/30 at ‘MAN’- i presume its either Maine or Manchester?. They instructed me to do video call first, as mentioned earlier. With this, did they mean , video and base training is at ‘MAN’ or… video call and then physical assesment at Man, and be flown to any base? Thank you in advance
This could just be a standard email template where they plug in information and don't edit per applicant. IF you need to be flown to a base you will be, and if not then you won't. There might be people training with you in Manchester who will then be flown to their base. But if they have told you your training and base are the same then they should be the same - in theory.
So we do need to go to the training everyday with the uniform and makeup? How many hours a day were the training ? like from 9 until 5pm or ..? thanks !! I’m starting my training next month :)
Hello Tabitha, thanks for the video, it was really helpfull. I would like to ask you a question, when you say that the group was physically checked during the meeting with the tutor, what do you mean? They checked height/tattoos?
Glad you found it helpful. I am not sure at what point I said that, but considering the fact that this is the training course video I think the checks I was referencing were the daily checks. So that would be general grooming. Makeup, hair, nails, shoes, 'certificate of competence' (a pretend one for practice purposes), ID. Tattoo and height check is done at the assessment day, which is way before the training course. I hope I have answered your question.
This was super helpful! I was supposed to go to Hahn two years ago and I couldn't go, and now I'm back on track! I have my last interview in two days, they already explained the whole process and salary to me. I do have one question: If more than 1 cabin crew go to the same base, do they try to share a flat? I'd find that easier and cheaper, and since I'm 21 I don't really mind sharing. Awesome video, keep it up!
Hi Ana, Glad you found it to be helpful. And good on you for getting back on track. Yes cabin crew who are going to the same base usually try to find accommodation together, but of course the choice is still completely up to you 😊
Hi Tabitha! Your video is very helpful, I'm invited to a training course in Hahn in a few weeks so now I have a better idea of what to expect :) Thank you! Just one question, I still don't have my AME medical certificate, and the trainee contract says it is compulsory to bring it on the first day of the course. Do you know if I can get it somewhere near Hahn? Take care 🤗
Hey Tom, I remember some of my coursemates got their medical done while on the training course, but I am not sure if it was near Hahn. If you can get it before, definitely do it.
Hey thanks for your videos super helpful, i just wanted to ask what did you wear on the first day? I have training in a few days and not sure what to wear ? X
@@TabithaLaker thanks for your reply! Would you say a skirt is a must? could I wear suite and smart pants with heels Also how many days did you say we would hv to dress smart untill training or uniform fitting? I’m starting tomorrow and panicking a lot aha x
James 24 I mention this in the video but to answer your question - there are other training centres. You cannot choose which centre because there might not be a course running there at the same time. But you can wait for a course at a later date to the one they initially offer you and it might be at a different location.
Really good content,im glad i stumbled upon your channel,i have a question,if for any reason i can''t afford acommodation on my own are any of the other trainees willing to share a flat?
Hello Tabitha. I will soon start a Ryanair group training course in about 1week and a half and I wanted to ask if black women are allowed to have our braids or do we have to be with our natural hair(Afro hair for me that is). I could not give videos explaining this.
Hi Janet, yes black women are now allowed to have braids but they must be near and tidy at all times. Preferably tied up in a bun. "The following hair styles are not permitted: Two tone colours or Visible Roots, Hair pieces or Extensions, Dread locks, Two tone colours or Visible Roots Asymmetrical Haircuts". Hope this helps.
Hi Dimitra, I am actually not too sure. When I was applying we could not choose but could make a request once we started the job. Maybe it is different these days. Try to check out the job description to see.
Hello, I find your videos very useful. I am starting the training next month. I have a problem, I am not a very good swimmer, what would you recommend me? How can I pass the swimming part? Is it to hard for us not good swimmers? Thank you in advance
Thank you so much for this video!!💕💕It’s really useful!! I actually wanted to ask, during the swimming training/test, do you need to be able to thread in the water? As I’m just able to stay in like a “dead body” if you get what I mean lol
@sayema shaikh i think it depends on them. I got the email after 2 weeks. I know some people who got it after a month max. But don’t worry, have patience :)💕💕
Hi Tabitha! I love your videos! and the way you speak! Just a silly question. Everyday, we do have to dress in a smart way? It Can not be casual? Thank you!
Hey Tabitha 👋🏻 I hope you're doing well! You mentioned in your video that you paid 700€ for the accomodation at Hahn and that you shared the room with another person. Did you have to pay the whole amount of 700€ by yourself or was it shared with the other person too? Great video! Love from Greece 💎
Hello , I’m staring my training in march I’m just curious what Health check looks like ? Also I need to fly from Leeds to my training base in Poland does rynair is providing tickets for me or I have to pay for flight from my pocket
You don't really do a health check. You get an aviation medical completed. Ryanair provides flights from any of the airports their flights operate from.
Not really. You just need money for the course, accommodation and money for your apartment (2 months worth) after the course. It's sort of a lot, but also depends on what country you go to. I would say 2000 euros is enough until you get your first salary, considering the fact that they also give you a small weekly payment while on the course.
I was invited to start on this date too but I’m not available because the time is too short. I sent an email asking if is possible to start on another day and I’m still waiting for an answer.
If you need a stepping stone to better airlines, are struggling to find a job in your country, or simply love Ryanair as an airline, then yes you can work for them for them. Different people have different situations, so you have to assess yours and your reason for wanting a job like this.... You will not get to do overnights in the countries you fly to so you will be working in the aircraft all day with nothing exciting to look forward to - but, this could just be the first step towards something better in the future... If you can get a job offer from Emirates or Etihad, British Airways, etc by all means go for them instead.
I was wondering.. as for the references how strict are they? Would they be okay if I bring only 3 references? It’s been so long I’ve lost touch with some people from my previous jobs..
I only brought 2 but that was years ago. That was the requirement at the time. 1 personal, 1 professional. You should try to follow the requirements as closely as possible. 3 sounds lika alot.
Do you receive the offer about the suggested accommodation after signing up for a training session? I’m still waiting to receive the next dates and have been really worried about housing
Hi Tabitha. I am preparing for next Bergamo Training course 2021. The per-diem of EU28 fits you ok, to cover daily acomodation and meals_? Do you have to pay for this 6 weeks course_? Thx !!!
Ohh if i met you i would be your friend right away! You're mature and wise. Don't got into a "fight" unecessarily and kept your eyes focused on the goal, dedicating to your studies and ignoring childish provocations. I would go out of the accomodation to study with you. Haha I am applying to Ryanair, i confess i found out some things that disappointed me this week, but i wanna try just to know i am capable of doing the next steps and decide later if i go, if i pass of course. Haha I am also trying to loose weight (68kg->62kg) and be stronger physicality for the training, i am 30 already and it's harder as you're getting older. I have a doubt though, i use glasses, for the trainning, would i have to use lens for the swimming pool?
Aww that's sweet!! Thank you! I don't see the need to get into fights because of another persons anger issues. I think your weight is ok. I was about 70kg (at 5ft 7") when I started the course. Would actually love to get back to it!! 😭 Went up after. I understand if you want to lose weight, but I don't think it's a requirement as long as you feel good.
I that is something you would have to sort out for yourself because one of the basic requirements is that you already have the right to work in the EU/UK.
Heyaaa!!! I really love your info videos!!! I have one question. Do you know if it's allowed for a woman to wear pants during the training and generally at work?
Hey Anastasia, glad you are enjoying my videos. Yes, you can wear pants during the training course. At work, you need to wear a skirt, which they give all women with their uniform towards the end of the training course.
Hi. I had my interview last week. I'm watching your videos to have a better idea of what being a flight attendant for Ryanair is like. If they select me, they will send me an email to sign for the next training course. Probably I can't participate in the first course so I'm trying to understand how long the invitation to the training is valid before I have to reapply from the very beginning and I have to go through the whole process again. Do you have any information about it or you have suggestions on how to obtain this information? Thank you so much
@@TabithaLaker ok. Thank you for the information. Also thank you for sharing your experience in these videos, they help a lot to have an idea of how working for Ryanair is
The handouts are just bitesize parts of the study pack . But there are different aspects of the job that require handouts - operations, safety and emergency, sales, customer service, security, dangerous goods, etc.
You can swap with someone who is willing to swap with you. If nobody is willing to swap, you can make a base transfer request on the first day 'online', not the first supernumerary days (which are first 3 'trial'/unpaid days).
Hi Tabitha, I have a question about the dressing code during the training. In the video you said that during the study days trainees can wear whatever they're comfortable with, does that include the first day? I was invited to join the training course at Bergamo (Italy) and I've been wandering what I'm supposed to wear during training, especially on my first day.
You have to wear smart clothes for the training course, including on the first day. No trainers or tracksuits, always well groomed. & yes, on study days you can wear what you wish.
"Applicants must have the unrestricted right to live and work in the UK." "Applicants must have the unrestricted right to live, travel and work in any EU country." If you have this, you are all good. I got this information from the job description, one is UK, the other is EU. I don't think Ryanair sponsors applicants.
@@TabithaLaker I have applied to a job there and I am from Jordan. They sent me the English test and I pass it and now they told me to wait for the interview! And they know I live and from Jordan. But how someone from the UK can travel and live in EU since they left the EU?
Hi Ana, yes, you should be able to. Just ask them to confirm when the next training course is. I also did the training course in a different month to the one they initially offered 😊
Olá! Também recebi o mesmo email para dia 14! Mas na entrevista foi-me dito que começaria o curso a meio de Fevereiro, fui apanhada um bocadinho de surpresa, mas já lhes enviei email 😅
@@BeatrizCruz24 Olá, mesmo, e agora por causa da pandemia estavam me a dizer para ir para Hahn amanhã para ficar 5 dias de quarentena e fazer o teste de covid, eles ligaram me e eu disse que teria disponibilidade só para Fevereiro, agora é esperar pelo próximo. Tu vais agora?
@@anamorgado5985 pois também acabei de falar com eles agora. Isso de ir para Hanh amanhã não disseram, mas disseram para me registrar no curso e podia haver a possibilidade de ficar no de dia 14 ou não. E disse também que os próximos cursos foram adiados, mas não sabem até quando. Um bocado confuso isto tudo.. não dá tempo para fazer os testes médicos nem traduzir os documentos que pedem..
Im 2022 they still offer this ? Like this is a weak package compared to other airlines specially if it is in europe. Like hey you need me ? You pay amd invest in me. Ryanair has a mental problem.
That's the way it is. And because people accept the conditions they don't change. However one thing they have changed is charging for the course and uniform. Those 2 things are now free.
Hi Tabitha! Thank you for the very informative videos. I have a small tattoo just above the internal malleolus, do you think they could reject me for that? Since women are supposed to wear skirts
I think if you are racist you really can't do this job. You are always in contact with people who comes all around the world. I really don't understand why these people reacted to you like this... Xoxo❤
This job is an investment because the money clearly sounds very bad but its the experience you're getting in return. Also, you clearly need some savings to begin you cant be living pay check to pay check of you eant to survive. It almost sounds like youre paying to have the job instead of the job paying you.
You need a bare minimum of 1200 euros to start the job. 1700 euros for a semi-comfortable start. Most applicants would get to know that when offered the position. It's not something particularly difficult, hence why so many people become cabin crew.

Can you request to get a training at a base in the country you live in? (I'm in Scotland and probably applying for one of the Scottish bases) or do you just get what you are given?
That's amazing! So happy to hear. Yes, you can request training in a specific base, but that won't guarantee it.
Fabulous video. What sort of photo do you have to upload as part of the application form? Is it like smart suits etc. Birmingham would be my preferred base in applying, it states in the application that you will train in Birmingham as well I believe.
Got an interview tommorow! Scary :O
I hope it went well.
@@TabithaLaker I got offered the job!! (Also had an interview at Jet2 and got that job, so took jet2!) Start training in March :D thank you for your videos
Hello! Thank you for your detailed videos, they're precious.
I would like to know if you have to buy for your own shoes, maybe you said it but I did understand. Thank you!
I am just a training freak 😅 where is the gym located and how do we get access to it?:)
My upcoming training course in Hahn is just weeks away.
In Hahn there is a gym at a hotel called My Place. You can train and enjoy the sauna there. I think it costs about 9 euros, but they might have a deal with the employer where you can get in free. Just check.
I just saw that lidl is pretty near by, how long of a walk would it approximately take you to walk that distance 🤍 I was thinking buying majority of my groceries from there.
Hi Tabitha! Really enjoyed your videos, and I do have to say that I am a bit chocked to know that other people were "disrespectful" to you because of your skin color, which is something that nowadays shouldn't happen anymore. Apart from that, wish you all the best, good luck and keep posting videos!
Hi Catarina, that was my suspision. It definitely wasn't nice but I got through it. I'm no longer working there but I would still like to share my story to help others on their possible journey.
Should I upload a video telling the training course experience, still working on the company?
You you could do. Might be very helpful to people wanting a more recent explanation of what goes on at the training course.
@@TabithaLaker Okay thank you! I’m a bit concerned because maybe it can be not right, because of the social media thing. But I don’t talk about restricted things in the video. Only the conversion, initial, and the main training bases. Let’s see.
When you got to the airport in hahn how did you get to the accommodation and is it provided by ryanair ?
Accomodation was organised by them, but we had to pay.
Hello, This videos are very helpful, thank you!!!! I have a question, if you don’t accept the accommodation that they offer you, do they provide you links or something for another one?
If you do not accept their accommodation, you can find your own accommodation. I don't think they provide links. You could look on Airbnb or some other local accommodation websites.
When you get your base? Is there any way to change that base, say for instance if your wanted your home base? Dublin for instance, could you negotiate with them or swap bases with someone else? Thanks keep up the good work! ✈️
yes you can swap with someone on the first day of training, if that person who wants to swap agrees.
Hi Tabitha, I have my training course with Ryanair booked for August. Could you tell me where you went to get your cabin crew shoes? X
You can go to deichmann for a cheap pair or go Clarkes if you want something of a bit better quality, or you can go to one of the 'cabin crew shoes' websites and see what they have avaiilable - but it's more a decision of how high and padded/comfortable you want your shoes rather than where to get them. At Least with these first 2 options you can go and try them on.
The accommodation, was it a hotel and did they give you a decent rate? Love the videos and have been offered a training course!
The accomodation was a guesthouse. 2 people in 1 room. The rate was 700 euros for 6 weeks. Congrats!
Hi Tabitha
Thank you so much for making this video.
I want to be a flight attendant and I'm a little nervous 😩 How did you find the interview? Did you find the training hard?
Thank you
Hey Ana, you are very welcome! The interview was very relaxed. The people were nice. Of course they have to be because they want to recruit new crew 😃The training was a bit hard but not impossible. I just studied every day to avoiding failing the exams.
@@TabithaLaker i got an interview. but i lied about being able to swim. do they do a swim test?
@@TheAngryScotsman.They do a swim test. You should take some lessons before attending the course. Good luck!
Hello, Dear. Hope you are well and thanking you for sharing insights in RA. My question if I may, I recently received an online interview this week. But then I have applied for a Post at indeed with an advertisement “Cabin Crew: Training -Manchester”… it is attached to the email a table saying training is on 10/19 and 10/30 at ‘MAN’- i presume its either Maine or Manchester?. They instructed me to do video call first, as mentioned earlier. With this, did they mean , video and base training is at ‘MAN’ or… video call and then physical assesment at Man, and be flown to any base? Thank you in advance
This could just be a standard email template where they plug in information and don't edit per applicant. IF you need to be flown to a base you will be, and if not then you won't. There might be people training with you in Manchester who will then be flown to their base. But if they have told you your training and base are the same then they should be the same - in theory.
Delta provides free accommodation for crew coming for training
Nice, very lucky cabin crew!
You are still working for Ryanair? Love your vídeos ☺️
No I'm not. Sorry I thought I put that in the description, or mentioned it in the video.
So we do need to go to the training everyday with the uniform and makeup?
How many hours a day were the training ? like from 9 until 5pm or ..? thanks !!
I’m starting my training next month :)
Makeup yes, uniform no. You should wear smart clothes. The uniform is only given to you a couple of days before the end of the course.
@@TabithaLaker Oh Ok thank you !!!
hey when was your interview?
@@bipasanashakya3859 around April
@@TabithaLaker sorry But what do you call smart close ? Do u have to wear heels?
Hi, I will be going to Viena on 9th May for the training course, what are exactly the documents you need to defo have? And how about the swiming test?
Hello Tabitha, thanks for the video, it was really helpfull. I would like to ask you a question, when you say that the group was physically checked during the meeting with the tutor, what do you mean? They checked height/tattoos?
Glad you found it helpful. I am not sure at what point I said that, but considering the fact that this is the training course video I think the checks I was referencing were the daily checks. So that would be general grooming. Makeup, hair, nails, shoes, 'certificate of competence' (a pretend one for practice purposes), ID. Tattoo and height check is done at the assessment day, which is way before the training course. I hope I have answered your question.
hi , what is the deal with the base ? they give you the base or you can chose it ??
This was super helpful!
I was supposed to go to Hahn two years ago and I couldn't go, and now I'm back on track! I have my last interview in two days, they already explained the whole process and salary to me.
I do have one question:
If more than 1 cabin crew go to the same base, do they try to share a flat? I'd find that easier and cheaper, and since I'm 21 I don't really mind sharing.
Awesome video, keep it up!
Hi Ana, Glad you found it to be helpful. And good on you for getting back on track. Yes cabin crew who are going to the same base usually try to find accommodation together, but of course the choice is still completely up to you 😊
@@TabithaLaker Thank you!!
Once your a cabin crew, do they set hard on board sales targets?
Not for everyone. Only if you are a Cabin supervisor/No1.
Hi Tabitha! Your video is very helpful, I'm invited to a training course in Hahn in a few weeks so now I have a better idea of what to expect :) Thank you!
Just one question, I still don't have my AME medical certificate, and the trainee contract says it is compulsory to bring it on the first day of the course. Do you know if I can get it somewhere near Hahn?
Take care 🤗
Hey Tom, I remember some of my coursemates got their medical done while on the training course, but I am not sure if it was near Hahn. If you can get it before, definitely do it.
Do you need to stay in the house if you live in the near of Hahn?
No. You can stay stay anywhere as long as you are close enough to the base.
Hey hun, Is training exams hard? I’ve been accepted for training
It's only hard if you don't absorb the information for the exams. As long as you study daily you should be fine. Have you started already?
I've just had my interview through what's app and passed.
Just waiting for approval.
all the best to you!!
Hey Joseph! I'm having my interview tomorrow and I would like to know how was your experience on the interview...
Hey thanks for your videos super helpful, i just wanted to ask what did you wear on the first day? I have training in a few days and not sure what to wear ? X
Hi Alhena, on the first day I wore a skirt, suit jacket and heels. The heels need to be 'cabin crew heels'. It's pretty much smart wear.
@@TabithaLaker thanks for your reply! Would you say a skirt is a must? could I wear suite and smart pants with heels Also how many days did you say we would hv to dress smart untill training or uniform fitting? I’m starting tomorrow and panicking a lot aha x
im sorry but i didnt understand, do you have to pay the acomodation during the training ? after training how you do with the acomodation of the base ?
Yes you have to pay for accomodation. After training, you need to find your own accomodation at your base.
Where could you have trained? Or is it just Hahn? And do they give you where you change or can you choose?
James 24 I mention this in the video but to answer your question - there are other training centres. You cannot choose which centre because there might not be a course running there at the same time. But you can wait for a course at a later date to the one they initially offer you and it might be at a different location.
Becoming a cabin crew for Ryanair but im overweight😭 Is It fine for Ryanair please? And does Ryanair check or ask you for your weight???
As long as you can fit into a cabin crew jumpseat without an extension belt I think you should be fine 😃
THX so much!!!!
Really good content,im glad i stumbled upon your channel,i have a question,if for any reason i can''t afford acommodation on my own are any of the other trainees willing to share a flat?
Thanks! Yes, most people share anyway.
Hello Tabitha. I will soon start a Ryanair group training course in about 1week and a half and I wanted to ask if black women are allowed to have our braids or do we have to be with our natural hair(Afro hair for me that is). I could not give videos explaining this.
Hi Janet, yes black women are now allowed to have braids but they must be near and tidy at all times. Preferably tied up in a bun. "The following hair styles are not permitted: Two tone colours or Visible Roots, Hair pieces or Extensions, Dread locks, Two tone colours or Visible Roots Asymmetrical Haircuts". Hope this helps.
Anyone starting training on 9th May in Austria,Vienna? 😃
Hope you found someone!!
Hello Tabitha! Thank you for your video it's really helpful!
Can I ask you if the flight attendants can pick their bases ?
Thank you in advance:)
Hi Dimitra, I am actually not too sure. When I was applying we could not choose but could make a request once we started the job. Maybe it is different these days. Try to check out the job description to see.
Hello, I find your videos very useful. I am starting the training next month. I have a problem, I am not a very good swimmer, what would you recommend me? How can I pass the swimming part? Is it to hard for us not good swimmers? Thank you in advance
which day you start the course?
I have a video about the swimming test and my personal experience coming up soon. Look out for it 😊
Do they do back ground check from your previous jobs ?
Yes they do, or at least ask for references. They also ask for a DBS check & require police report from every country you have lived in.
Hi! I´d love to know in wich week or what day of the Training Course, they inform you wich base you were assigned.
For me personally, I was assigned as soon as I was assigned 1 week before the training course began. I am not sure how things operate now.
Thank you so much for this video!!💕💕It’s really useful!! I actually wanted to ask, during the swimming training/test, do you need to be able to thread in the water? As I’m just able to stay in like a “dead body” if you get what I mean lol
No. You just need to be able to get from point A to B - 1) alone 2) dragging someone. Glad you have found the video helpful! 😊
@@TabithaLaker omg thank you so much!!! I did my interview yesterday and I’m waiting for the email! I hope I did well!! Finger crossed 🤞
@sayema shaikh i think it depends on them. I got the email after 2 weeks. I know some people who got it after a month max. But don’t worry, have patience :)💕💕
Hi Tabitha! I love your videos! and the way you speak! Just a silly question. Everyday, we do have to dress in a smart way? It Can not be casual?
Thank you!
Hey Miguel! Thankyou 😊 Yes you have to dress smart every day except for extra study days that the instructor may offer you. Hope that helps!
@@TabithaLaker thank you!!
Hi thanks for your video what do u think I should wear for the first day of the training course ? Heels?
Just dress generally smart and follow grooming guidelines. & Yes you have to wear heels. They don't have to be super high though. - bit.ly/3qgFm2q
Hey Tabitha 👋🏻 I hope you're doing well! You mentioned in your video that you paid 700€ for the accomodation at Hahn and that you shared the room with another person. Did you have to pay the whole amount of 700€ by yourself or was it shared with the other person too? Great video! Love from Greece 💎
You pay the whole €700 yourself. So that particular accomodation was €1400 per room in total. THanks for tuning in 😊
@@TabithaLaker Thank youu for the reply 😊⭐
Apart from the apartment, what else do you pay for on your own please?
Bills and whatever else you need. Uniform is free.
@@TabithaLaker thank you
Is there only written english test as you mentioned in one video, or we have to speak also.
Yes. The other 'test' will be an individual interview.
I was told the prices for the accommodations for the training, do we have to pay for it?😳
Yes, you have to pay for it yourself.
if you don't mind me asking, where did you guys stayed? Which hotel or was it at the training facility itself?
We stayed at a hotel that was about 5 minutes drive from the training center.
@@TabithaLaker Would you happen to know the name? is that usually the norm for all new cabin crew trainees to stay there?
Hello , I’m staring my training in march I’m just curious what Health check looks like ? Also I need to fly from Leeds to my training base in Poland does rynair is providing tickets for me or I have to pay for flight from my pocket
You don't really do a health check. You get an aviation medical completed. Ryanair provides flights from any of the airports their flights operate from.
Hi did you pass your training?
So basically, you need to have a lot of money to start ? If you broke more or less , isn't doable!!☹😰😰
Not really. You just need money for the course, accommodation and money for your apartment (2 months worth) after the course. It's sort of a lot, but also depends on what country you go to. I would say 2000 euros is enough until you get your first salary, considering the fact that they also give you a small weekly payment while on the course.
Hi to everybody !Does anyone start the training course at Hahn on April 15?
🤞
I was invited to start on this date too but I’m not available because the time is too short. I sent an email asking if is possible to start on another day and I’m still waiting for an answer.
Would u recommend working for them? From personal experience
If you need a stepping stone to better airlines, are struggling to find a job in your country, or simply love Ryanair as an airline, then yes you can work for them for them. Different people have different situations, so you have to assess yours and your reason for wanting a job like this.... You will not get to do overnights in the countries you fly to so you will be working in the aircraft all day with nothing exciting to look forward to - but, this could just be the first step towards something better in the future... If you can get a job offer from Emirates or Etihad, British Airways, etc by all means go for them instead.
Hey, i start my training course on the 15th for Ryanair. What advice would you give for revising ❤️
Hey Ryan, I have a video all about revising exams - th-cam.com/video/PrL2fNTvy2I/w-d-xo.html
Do they pay you something during the training course?
yes you get per diem payments. It's not a full salary, but something to help with food shopping etc.
Hello I have training next month and was wondering
How much do you get payed for the 6 week training?
about 80-100 euros per week
I was wondering.. as for the references how strict are they? Would they be okay if I bring only 3 references? It’s been so long I’ve lost touch with some people from my previous jobs..
I only brought 2 but that was years ago. That was the requirement at the time. 1 personal, 1 professional. You should try to follow the requirements as closely as possible. 3 sounds lika alot.
Do you receive the offer about the suggested accommodation after signing up for a training session? I’m still waiting to receive the next dates and have been really worried about housing
Yes, I did. If you haven't yet, just follow up with them and ask. I wish you the best with it!
Hello,
You said they have their own gim? Do we need to pay for a shuttle bus always (is it mandatory) even if we want to walk?
Hi Tabitha. I am preparing for next Bergamo Training course 2021. The per-diem of EU28 fits you ok, to cover daily acomodation and meals_? Do you have to pay for this 6 weeks course_? Thx !!!
The per diem payments only cover the basics like food and toiletries - it's only 28 euros. You will need more money to pay for the accommodation rent.
Ohh if i met you i would be your friend right away! You're mature and wise. Don't got into a "fight" unecessarily and kept your eyes focused on the goal, dedicating to your studies and ignoring childish provocations. I would go out of the accomodation to study with you. Haha I am applying to Ryanair, i confess i found out some things that disappointed me this week, but i wanna try just to know i am capable of doing the next steps and decide later if i go, if i pass of course. Haha I am also trying to loose weight (68kg->62kg) and be stronger physicality for the training, i am 30 already and it's harder as you're getting older. I have a doubt though, i use glasses, for the trainning, would i have to use lens for the swimming pool?
Aww that's sweet!! Thank you! I don't see the need to get into fights because of another persons anger issues. I think your weight is ok. I was about 70kg (at 5ft 7") when I started the course. Would actually love to get back to it!! 😭 Went up after. I understand if you want to lose weight, but I don't think it's a requirement as long as you feel good.
How about the working visa for cabin crew do they help you with that or you do it yourself? Thanks
I that is something you would have to sort out for yourself because one of the basic requirements is that you already have the right to work in the EU/UK.
Heyaaa!!! I really love your info videos!!!
I have one question. Do you know if it's allowed for a woman to wear pants during the training and generally at work?
Hey Anastasia, glad you are enjoying my videos. Yes, you can wear pants during the training course. At work, you need to wear a skirt, which they give all women with their uniform towards the end of the training course.
@@TabithaLaker oh that's perfect!! Thank you so much!
@@TabithaLaker Hi! But do the pants have to be? And for the upper part? Thank u
Hi! Could you tell me if there is an exam where they put you to swim?
Yes there is an exam. I made a video about it here: bit.ly/SwimmingExam
I just saw the video, thank you!🙏
Hi. I had my interview last week. I'm watching your videos to have a better idea of what being a flight attendant for Ryanair is like. If they select me, they will send me an email to sign for the next training course. Probably I can't participate in the first course so I'm trying to understand how long the invitation to the training is valid before I have to reapply from the very beginning and I have to go through the whole process again. Do you have any information about it or you have suggestions on how to obtain this information? Thank you so much
Hello, I think the invitation lasts 6 months, but that is based on what a recent applicant told me. You should double check with them to confirm.
@@TabithaLaker ok. Thank you for the information. Also thank you for sharing your experience in these videos, they help a lot to have an idea of how working for Ryanair is
Is the training course Mon-Friday ? 9-5 ?..
For me it was Monday - Sunday (not every day) 9 - 6pm.
Are the handouts different than the study pack ?
The handouts are just bitesize parts of the study pack . But there are different aspects of the job that require handouts - operations, safety and emergency, sales, customer service, security, dangerous goods, etc.
so if i apply and they put my base in berlin can i ask to swap to one in england if no ones willing to?
You can swap with someone who is willing to swap with you. If nobody is willing to swap, you can make a base transfer request on the first day 'online', not the first supernumerary days (which are first 3 'trial'/unpaid days).
Hi I have a question Does ryanair pay contributions to the cabin crew for a future pension?
(For example in Italy )
I don't think so. You have to set it up yourself.
Hi ma’am can you just tell us how to crack ryanair interview!
You need to meet all the job requirements, dress smart, have some customer service experience and speak English well. I hope that helps.
Hi Tabitha, I have a question about the dressing code during the training. In the video you said that during the study days trainees can wear whatever they're comfortable with, does that include the first day? I was invited to join the training course at Bergamo (Italy) and I've been wandering what I'm supposed to wear during training, especially on my first day.
You have to wear smart clothes for the training course, including on the first day. No trainers or tracksuits, always well groomed. & yes, on study days you can wear what you wish.
Hi. Im from Bangladesh so i give the exam on the online prosassing.
All the best
If I want ot work in Ryanair as an flight attendant. Do I have to be from Europe? Or have an EU or English passport?
"Applicants must have the unrestricted right to live and work in the UK." "Applicants must have the unrestricted right to live, travel and work in any EU country." If you have this, you are all good. I got this information from the job description, one is UK, the other is EU. I don't think Ryanair sponsors applicants.
@@TabithaLaker I have applied to a job there and I am from Jordan. They sent me the English test and I pass it and now they told me to wait for the interview! And they know I live and from Jordan. But how someone from the UK can travel and live in EU since they left the EU?

E disse também que os próximos cursos foram adiados, mas não sabem até quando. Um bocado confuso isto tudo.. não dá tempo para fazer os testes médicos nem traduzir os documentos que pedem..
@@BeatrizCruz24 adiciona me no insta @_amorgado_ podemos ir falando sobre isto
Im 2022 they still offer this ? Like this is a weak package compared to other airlines specially if it is in europe. Like hey you need me ? You pay amd invest in me. Ryanair has a mental problem.
That's the way it is. And because people accept the conditions they don't change. However one thing they have changed is charging for the course and uniform. Those 2 things are now free.
Ama struggle with English like I'm polish but I also speak English but at school I'm learning French my accent is way off
You will get there. Having an accent isn't a problem. Not knowing the meaning of words and not being fluent in English are problems.
Hi Tabitha! Thank you for the very informative videos. I have a small tattoo just above the internal malleolus, do you think they could reject me for that? Since women are supposed to wear skirts
Hey Amélie, glad you are finding them helpful. As long as you can hide the tattoo it shouldn't be a problem at all :)
@@TabithaLaker thank you very much :)
If one has dyed his hair, is that still appropriate?
Yes, as long as it is even and well maintained. Exposed/New roots could be a problem.
Yes it should look natural, nothing 'too crazy'.
I think if you are racist you really can't do this job. You are always in contact with people who comes all around the world. I really don't understand why these people reacted to you like this...
Xoxo❤
This job is an investment because the money clearly sounds very bad but its the experience you're getting in return. Also, you clearly need some savings to begin you cant be living pay check to pay check of you eant to survive. It almost sounds like youre paying to have the job instead of the job paying you.
You need a bare minimum of 1200 euros to start the job. 1700 euros for a semi-comfortable start. Most applicants would get to know that when offered the position. It's not something particularly difficult, hence why so many people become cabin crew.
