- čas přidán 19. 07. 2023
- Hey guys, this week I was curious... want to see the cabin crew accommodations for Emirates?
When it comes to Emirates Airlines, there’s no doubt that as a company they represent travel, hospitality and a lifestyle of luxury!
When crew travel, they often stay in five star hotels, travel first class and enjoy per diem allowances to eat and explore international cities during their travels.
You might ask yourself though :
Where do Emirates Cabin Crew actually live?
What does Emirates provide crew when they initially join the company?
Where are new Emirates crew placed?
Find out in this video or read the entire blog post on my website for even more of an insider's look!

PS. Remember dreams are supposed to come true, so I hope yours do too!!
See you next time!

This is my dream accomodation i hope i will be able to live in one of these someday
Good luck! I'm sure you will ☺
Congratulations for your new chapter of your life ♥️🥰
Thank you!
HI CAT!! Cool to see what the accommodations look like
Did you use an AI audio processor on your recordings? I noticed some sounded like the raw camera mic but others had the same room ambience but with an adjusted and slightly recreated voice
anyway, congrats on surpassing 1k subs! I don't think I said that yet but yeah!
Hi Anton! Not sure, I have a friend who takes care of that for me. I asked him to fix some parts because I sounded a bit robotic lol so we're learning to improve video by video :) He's great though
I had an Open Day a couple of weeks ago but was eliminated after the 2nd round. I will carry on dreaming and working towards becoming Cabin Crew
Many people attend more than one Open Day, myself included. Good luck!
What of countries where we don't have open days?
Hello! In that case I would recommend finding some experience working at a company you can add to your CV which will also allow you to save and fly to a nearby city where open interviews are taking place :) @@brianharun5046
Never give up on your dream
I'm 100% sure you'll make it to graduation. Good luck❤❤❤
Cat , what is required weight and do Emirates check teeth and what is the requirements my teeth are not straight so is it a problem and required BMI
Hello~thank u for the amazing video. I just saw that ur place so is better than other flats ive seen😊
If u dont mind i would like to ask one question.
During training do u get a full basic salary or just half? One utuber mentioned half so wanted to confirm.
One more,,,regarding the tickets. I heard that there are no more buddy tickets. Is there still no or is it resumed by now?. 😊
Hello, thank you for watching :) I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I think maybe what the CZcamsr meant is that during training you receive a portion or less than half of the total salary. You receive the full basic salary but you don't receive outstation/layover allowances or hourly pay. Altogether, you will be paid more when you finish training. The buddy tickets are resumed I believe as well.
Hi very nice video
Do you know keemahna shaffat usmani in emirates
Hi! I´m about to go on an assesment day with Emirates and I was so excited about everything but now I´m kinda nervous.. Can u tell me something about the interview and the time lapse between the day you attend and then moving to Dubai experience? It would help me a lot :) Also, i like so much your video :)
Hi Luciana, thank you so much. You don't need to be nervous, being excited is better :) Usually if you get the job they will call you in a day or two after you attend the open day. You can choose how long you need before joining in Dubai. Some people join after one week, others after three months. Give yourself time to say goodbye to your loved ones! Hope this helps. Check out this blog post for more info too! I talk about every step I went through before arriving: www.catmansouri.com/episodes-page/episode-24-cabin-crew-living
hii how the day went? any advices??
What Building is that? This is my dream accommodation 😍😍😍
Hi, thank you for sharing with us. I would like to know about off days and how often you get to go home (leave or just flying there for work)
Hi! All crew receive an annual leave ticket for their home country's airport (or the airport nearest to where they were hired) and annual leave to go home as well. As for off days, it depends on the month and the roster but the minimum is 8 days off a month keeping in mind that you can (and probably will) work evenings and weekends :)
Hi there, I have a question because im a little confused. Is the relocation perminate while you work for Emirates, or just for the 7 or so weeks of training.
If the former how long are you in shared housing before getting a private place. And is this place of your own covered or do you now pay for it?
And while training, besides included accomodations, are you paid?
I know this is alot haha, but thank you kindly in advance!
Hello! Good questions. The relocation is permanent for as long as you work for the airline. You move there in training and stay until you no longer work for the company. The good news is though that the company covers the costs as well as the cost of utilities so you really only need to pay for food and wifi. You are also paid during training! Hope this helps xx
Do emirates provide accommodation to ground staff?
Can I ask how much time do they give you from the golden call to the flight to Dubai ? Do they assign you a training course date and you have to accept it right away or do they give you different date options ? I've heard other content creators say you were able to wait until six months to fix everything in your home country before the training if you needed but I don't know if it's still like that. Thank you very much and keep up the great content !
Hi, that is correct. You can decide once you receive the golden call how long you will need before joining. I think it's up to 5-6 months as they'll be back in the country probably at that point. Personally, I gave 3 months. There are new trainings sessions every week and they will tell you based on the timeframe you need when to start.
Hey :) I just got hired with Emirates! Supposed to fly out in a month!! Can't wait. I have an important question before I come, when do we start earning hourly pay for flying? How long are we receiving only base pay? Look forward to hearing from you! I have asked my Coordinator but have not heard back.
Basic pay for training period ….and when you start flying you will get basic pay + flying hours + layover meal allowance
Hi and congratulations! To answer your question, you're paid base pay for about two months since training is 8 weeks. You do receive an advance your first week in in order to help with expenses and life in Dubai but I recommend having savings and living frugally for the first little bit. The advance is also taken out of your pay until it's repaid later on. Hope that helps!
hiii i have assesment day very soon, any advices? how is it first we give cv then group discussion and etc??
Hi! Check out this post for all the info you need :) www.catmansouri.com/episodes-page/episode-20-ek-2023 @@babygirl8151
And where learning & development manager live?
what is the meaning of application under review at emirate airways and how many chances for interview after this status and after how many time it will change
Hi, application under review means they are reviewing your application materials. In general I would advise against over analyzing your status on the portal, because it can make you nervous and when they are ready they will reach out to you personally anyway!
I just want to ask how much is the pay (salary) for the beginning 6 months ? and is those 6 months training only?
Two months of training (3500 aed) and after that base pay + layover allowances + hourly rate (8-10k aed)
Wich wifi do you use? Wich card sim operator is the best in dubai?
Hello! I use Etisalat, most people use Etisalat or Du :)
Hey Cat, l waa inquiring is it possible to be hired by emirates when am jhus l have jhus studied the cabin crew course ,without the cabin crew training though with an experience in hospitality
Hi, if you meet the other requirements such as height and so on then yes of course. It will help you in the interview process to mention that you have done the training as it shows you are serious about your career. Many people do not have this so it's an added bonus. Good luck!
Hi cat,Do you have any news regarding the reapplication time of emirates.I have heard the reapplication time has reduced from 6 months to 3 months?
Hi, I'm not sure where you have heard this information. As far as I am aware, it is 6 months to reapply if unsuccessful. Check with the source of your information to confirm, or attend an Open Day near you to ask :)
Thankyou!❤
Hello 👋 Cat 😻🥰💞💝
Are job opportunities for cabin crew positions with Emirates available for individuals from Pakistan?
yes
is it possible for a EK crew to record video accommodation or wearing uniform and post on social media? I mean does EK allow it freely?
They will train you in training on what is allowed and what is not allowed on social media! Basically it depends on a lot of things, not only being in uniform or in the acommodation.
hii, i just wanted to ask if you can have animals in the accomdation
Hello, you are not allowed technically to have pets in the accomodations. When girls move out of shared accommodations and get their own or later on, they may get a cat though 😺
It is hard with a flying lifestyle to have a dog but a cat is more manageable as they are more independent. Also, cats are more acceptable in the middle east and easier to handle as they do not go outside in the heat. Having a dog in Dubai is not easy 🐕🦺
Mam can you plzz tell me what can be the reason that my Application is rejected multiple times to Emirates 😢😢😢though i made ats compatible CV
Hi! It's hard for me to help you directly as I don't know your exact situation. If you like you can send me an email at hello@catmansouri.com with more information about you such as your height, education, experience in customer service and the process and I can do my best to help 🙂 It's ver4y common for people to reapply and I myself was hired on the 2nd try. Don't lose hope !
I got a job as cabin services assistant with emirates, i am still hoping to be a cabin crew later on 🙏
Congratulations!! Good luck to you
@@catbeingcurious thank you! ☺️
Hey , I hope you well.
I went to an assessment 4th September this year and unfortunately I didn't make it through and on Monday I got an invite again and a call from Emirates saying I was short listed and when I told the lady that the 6 months period isn't over and she said that it's been cut down to 3 months now . I don't know if you could help me confirm that I am really nervous to go but it's not true. I knyshe wouldn't lie to me but I'd like a second opinion or confirmation from someone that works there. If you are able to ask around and confirm for me I'd really appreciate it .
Thanks 😊
Hi there! I'm not sure if it was cut down because you were shortlisted but the company recruiter is always the best source of information! If she said something to you directly, I would listen to her before me or any information I find. Hope you get it ☺
You didnt have any idea that you will have to pay back for all these amenities and facilities and perks later on .. 😊
Hi Kat. Could you help me with a doubt. If I did the online recording interview and I got a job offer. Am I already in or I will have another interview?
Hi! That's great, congratulations 💫💗
If you got the golden call I think you're good to go. If you received a contract to sign online and are in the onboarding process already (they gave you a new portal sign-in) then you are definitely in, even if it is unclear still when you will go to Dubai.
Enjoy the ride!
@@catbeingcurious Thank you very much for take your time to answer me. 🤗 I wish you a wonderful day! ✨
Mam please tell me in the time of emirates cabin crew interview they do only checked your arm reach test or they can be measure your height or not.
I mean to say that they can check both the things or not.
I went to two Assessment Days, both times they checked height and reach
@@catbeingcurious ohhh thankss
It means they checked both things measurment of height or arm reach.
@@MahimaShukla-bn4xz Yes. They measure height without shoes as well
Hi Cat I’ve been watching your videos on your emirates journey! But did you end up leaving?😢
Hello! Thank you for watching my videos :) Subscribe to find out lol
Are u still a cabin crew in emirate
Can you please tell me is it necessary to have 1 year of customer service experience to apply as a cabin crew ? and how many roommates you have and do you share the room or you have separate ones? Thank.
You need one year of customer service experience. This doesn't need to be paid experience I don't think (volunteering can count) as long as you have worked in serving others as part of a team.
You have your own room in a suite with many rooms. You can have 1,2 or even 3 roommates, it really depends on where you are placed. But you have your own room and usually your own bathroom. Hope that helps ✌
@@catbeingcurious Thanks a lot, this really helped ❣.
hi, thank you for the video. do you also get an ensuite bathroom? and are all the accomodations the same?
Hi yes everyone has a private bathroom. All accommodations are not the same though! If you are in the same apartment there are 3 different sizes available of units and also there are different buildings which can be modern or older depending on where you are placed!
i see, thank you so much! :)@@catbeingcurious
hello. i hope you see this comment. i wanted to ask if we can apply for emirates cabin crew with only a gsce ( o levels ). i haven't completed school and is doin a diploma outside the normal educatiom system rn. will they take with my gsce itself or should i wait till i finish the diploma i am doing?
Hi there! To apply, candidates must have completed at least a grade 12 or complete high school education. They also must be at least 21 years of age. I am not sure if your diploma is equivalent to grade 12. If so, great and if not maybe find out the equivalent in your country. Once you have this, if you are still not 21 you can find other customer service or hospitality experience to add to your CV so that you can be more attractive to the company once you do apply :)
@@catbeingcurious omg thank you for replying. In my country that diploma is equivalent to a levels kinda ( since some students drop out or failed to meet requirement to continue a levels) so the government here has another system/college where they provides for different courses outside the normal system for example in tourism , IT and engineering. i am doing the diploma in hotel management and i will find a job (for the experience) in a resto or call centre. So will all of this cover for it ?
@@catbeingcurious i have passed my gsce so i know this is good. i drop out because of my mental health n family issues. and now doing the diploma in hotel management ? what do you think?
@@sekimasumi4092 Hi again! I think completing your diploma in hotel management sounds like a good idea. It seems like from research I've done online that completing A Levels would be equivalent to completing Grade 12 education.
I think that if you have come this far after your struggles, you can certainly apply to any airline after finishing your diploma and they would be happy to take you :) Just be sure to let them know when you apply that you are now taking great care of yourself and have put those issues behind you! Good luck
@@catbeingcurious yes! thank you for replying 🥰
Just curious if anyone might fail during training ?
It's possible! Training involves testing so if you fail the tests consistently or if you don't follow instructions you can be sent home 🛫
Hello,
My actual GF who was a former cabin crew for a Brazilian company has actually succed to get a contract with Ek. I'm very anxious to know if as her boy friend ( we are a 5 years couple living together) I will be allowed to visit her on her accomodations and pass couples of days or weeks together ( because I know she will be flying too ) so can you just please answer to me :
Are we in 2023 allowed to bring an official or non officially boy friend in our rooms to pass a couple of days or weeks in Dubai ?
And if you answered just give all info you have, may be it seems useless but it can be important to us.
Thanks you by advance
Hi Enrique, it is very sweet that you are so concerned. Yes, it is very common and I know of some girls whose boyfriends stayed with them a few weeks. Your girlfriend just has to register you as her guest at least a week before your arrival. Once approved you are good to go :)
@@catbeingcurious Thanks you very much for this quick answer. Yeah she just get her contract 4 ays ago and from this day I'm very stressed about her leaving me to make her dreams come true again ( she was fired a couples of years ago because of COVID airlines situation ). So we haved a "normal" life during this time and I enjoyed it. Because Dubai looks so far from home and because I know she will be traveling again the world I would even prepare myself to get to live there but I m not ready mentally to do it right now or even in a couple of months. I prefer let her pass her first 6 month probation and see but during this time I would like really to go to this country to see by myself if I can live there or not ( I don't speak Arabic, I use a translator to speak English ... ). So first thanks you again because it's seem more easy right now...
I have read something about that I have to quit as guest every day at 1.00 am.
So precisly ( I think you answered lol but I really want to be sure) my question was that I want to be recognised as boy friend ( and not being married because we never think about it before and that's not meaning that our relationship wasn't serious)
I really trust her and know that as a cabin crew she will fly the hole world and happy that she can do that for a couple of years as a young girl she is, but sad also for our relationship to be again separated. So at least having the right to be there even for a couple of weeks, without paying additional hotels ect it's for us a good notice. So thanks you if you can just confirm again this good news
@@enriquebogosian3181 Hi Enrique, the UAE is a lovely country and is very expat-friendly (over 80% of the population are from other countries). The only language you will really need is English, though Arabic is a plus. The rules are fairly open to foreigners, though in the UAE unmarried couples are taboo. So many crew have boyfriends and partners stay over as "cousins" I think 😇
How much money do you need to be able to buy food and stuff when Emirates call you to Dubai for training
I would say have at least 1500$ if you can. You can survive off of less, and many do, but having this much will ensure you can enjoy Dubai and not feel like you are depriving yourself. That being said, the company does give you an advanced salary amount when you first arrive so you can survive, but they will take it from your next few paychecks.
Hi cat what size photo do u need for open day assessment and what documents you need example do you have to have passport/ visa
what is it like moving in with a room mate?
It honestly depends! Some girls become best friends, others have some conflicts or need some time to adjust to each other. Basically establishing mutual respect among cultural differences is really important from the beginning!
Do you get paid monthly?
EK crew are paid monthly
Well you should be more honest with people or at least do your resurch better.. You're only lucky to have this type of accomodation because you're a new joiner and they just opened up this brand new building. Most of the building are quite different and you never know which one you'll be assigned for. Lots of buildings have multiple issues that noone will really fix( mold, AC, insects). There's at least one accomodation where you have to share a bathroom with another person. And no pool in the building on top of being czary old and in horrible dodgy location. I'm saying all that so that people don't have their hopes high and understand that you might struggle quite a bit
Hi, thank you for your comment. It is true that the company randomly assigns accommodations to all crew upon hiring. I guess I thought this was so obvious given the many videos on CZcams with different suites that I did not address it, and only shared my experience as a new joiner in 2023 because it seems the company is building new accommodations as well. Although I agree that some living arrangements are not as good, I can only share my own experience but thanks for your perspective
Hey, which accommodation is this? MIT?
Hello! I don't want to say for privacy reasons :)
Is that real FA work every day without rest I have heard you get only 16 hours off between flights or less and you get only 4 days off a month
Hi! Most airlines will give you a minimum of 8 days off a month. You will also receive minimum rest sometimes, but often you will also have more time, even days, between flights so don't worry.
How busy you are depends on the flights you are able to operate, the airline, the season of flying (for example, the holidays) and more. Everything will be okay :) don't stress haha
Are they charge any money for gym and pool or free??
Free with every accommodation, don't worry
Hi Cat. I gave a question are the apartment separated by gender like if you're a guy your roommates will also be guys.
Hi Leo, yes. You will be in the same building as the opposite gender but the apartments are only same-gender 🙂
@@catbeingcurious thank you for responding quickly ♥️♥️♥️
I think you are a Tunisian !!! Is that right??
Haha Tunisia is a wonderful country but unfortunately no! I am Iranian and Latina mixed ☺
Can you opt out of accommodation because you have a pet?
I don't think so: You can opt out if you're married or if the rules allow it (they change every so often).
If your roommates are ok with it you can ask them, as some people have cats for example but you can be reported for it.
The best bet might be to have the pet live elsewhere until you qualify to live in your own place (when you reach business class, I believe).
do you live with other people?
2-3 roommates per room until you move up in the company. Later on there's the option of getting your own flat/apartment
@@catbeingcurious per room? :O
@@sezamek5 Haha no, per apartment. Everyone gets their own room. Roommates are same gender anyway ☺
Where in dubai is this?
I'm not sure if it's safe to say due to internet weirdos
@@catbeingcurious I've heard somewhere that there r many building locations for the crew- can u atleast say if this one is in the city part or the desert part- and is there any buildings close to the Burj Khalifa? 😅❤
@@fakwildrift Hi! This one is a little outside the city center, but it is still in the city part. It's only a 15-minute subway ride from the Burj :)
your video isn't that helpful....didn't show the apartment very well...only yourself....
@@SKKR1118 Lol
Will you marry me? 😍
Lol thank you for the offer
Please, 🙏
