I don't think the training shirt will cover the tattoo...

I don't think it will be a problem as it will be completely covered by the uniform

Thanks, we'll see ;-)

Ooooh thanks for the suggestion - will have to check it out!

Honestly I don't know. I will export the responses and see whether I can set up another Q &A form with the blog, or find another website that does the same thing. It will be time consuming, that's for sure, and with this diploma at the moment most of my free time is spent on that. So it'll be a while, and whilst I have an idea of what I would like to see happen, it will be a long time before I attempt work on it, sadly.

They're probably just trying to fit you in to a training class at the college, which is quite packed at the moment. I wouldn't worry yourself too much - once you're in the medical stage they will honour the offer of employment.

Well honestly, I get them more often if I've been really slack with my exercise. If I exercise regularly, say twice a week, then I can avoid them for up to 4 months. But if I skip working out for longer than 3 weeks I'll get a fever, cold, and the symptoms associated with them. Flying with blocked sinuses is very bad for you, as during the descent phase the pressure changes can become very painful. You can avoid this by doing the valsalva movement (look it up!) and use nasal spray but this can only do so much. You can take sick leave if your ears are blocked.

Well on the male uniform nothing exceeds a long sleeve, however during your training you will be in the red training shirt, which is only short sleeve, so any tattoos that are visible in that red shirt will not be permitted, and you will be asked as such.

I believe it is both ODs and ADs

A few times. You just let them get composed and work the galley and you would take over the cabin work until they're ok.

It doesn't really bother me to an extent, but my curiosity would get the better of me if they wanted to take pictures of the doors, the cockpit entry, the bunk entrance etc.

Yes, and no. There is certain equipment located there they're not permitted to have access to.

I think it's Hong Kong-Bangkok and vice versa.

1. I have never had a layover in Medina
2. basically when an aircraft goes tech it means that the aircracft has a mechanical or computer-based problem than cannot be fixed for several hours and a flight needs to be cancelled as a result.

Generally they'll accept a waiting time of no more than three months. I would finish the internship and attend an open day closer to the end of it.

No I have never done the route, as I am not qualified to fly that aircraft. But I have heard it is very busy.

Generally they don't mind after landing, but sometimes there are time restrictions for us, particularly if the aircraft is due to be towed to a remote stand.

Generally no, unless there has been an arrangement with management beforehand.

The airline only want fluent speakers. The other language test occurs once you are in training college and will be conducted verbally with a native language speaker and you will be required to read in the test language as well.

We're not obligated to pose for photographs, but we are generally more than happy to comply with requests.
