Cabin Crew Life: Getting a job at British Airways 

Hey, thanks for watching and for the comment, glad you enjoyed the video. Yeah both Easyjet and BA were good fun to work for but totally different companies so there was so much to change when moving over to BA.

Aha. Thank you 😘

Oh no way! That’s so cool. I wish I had started vlogging trip while I was at British Airways. Preferred EZY though to be honest.

George and Dan I’m glad I do it now but I wish I’d started at Easyjet cause I did night stops from Gatwick with them. I can see why you liked EZY more - better atmosphere on board.

@@GeorgeandDan you still cabin crew

Hey! Most of it was done a points based system, so for failing something they give you a point and you can have a maximum of 12 (I believe?) Generally speaking, they coach you through and help you where they can. There is a chance you don’t pass and you won’t be hired by BA. But I believe it is rare that this happens.

Thanks for your fast respond

Hey there! Tips for training, read questions properly lol, make sure you understand what processes are what and just talk with others on the training course. You’ll all be in the same boat. Even though I flew before, I was still as nervous about the process as the non flyers. In regards to staying in Heathrow for training (if you’re not commuting) many hotels in the area offer discount, you just have to show your pass when you check in (even travelodge) it is an incredible job and an amazing experience.

Quick question I'm quite nervous. I really want to ask you guys what questions were they asking at the interviews and are your tips? Really want to ace this 🤗🤗

Hey. It may have changed since I had the interview. There were group exercises, working together to plan a new airport lounge, a one on one interview, like, why ba? What skills do you have that you would bring? How would you handle shift work etc, and a one on one role play, helping a customer out with a difficult situation. :) hope that this helps.

@@GeorgeandDan hey thank you for responding means alot but when I was there couple of months ago I indeed made it through to the last round however at the interview I was asked I would call it trick questions. The basics I answered to the best of my ability but this guy kept throwing me off about other airlines sevices then asking how it compares to BA?! 🤨🤨

Oh yeah they do, I’m sure they play it like good cop and bad cop. There was a lot about easyjet comparisons, but I worked for easyjet prior so maybe it was different.

Oh really? Is that in regards to the nervous flyer situation? Lol.

Wondering Apple yeah I used to hate it all because of a bad flight like you !

That’s so funny! Even while I was at Easyjet I was terrified of flying over the ocean. Until I worked for BA and flew transatlantic twice a week. Soon got used to it 😂

It depends entirely on the airline that you’re applying for. I believe that BA has a standard of no lower than the elbow for a man, and women could only have them on their torso. But if you google BA Uniform Standards / Tattoo standards, I’m sure it will come up. Cause they do offer a long sleeve shirt, just don’t know if they’ll allow the tattoo.

Wandering Apple i have one small one on my wrist but already booking to try to remove it so i can apply ,so sad is my only son name .it could be cover with my wacht but i dont this to risk it .thank you love your videos xx

Hey, hmm, I’m not entirely sure I think that would be on a country specific thing, I’m not entirely sure what the UK offers in that aspect unfortunately.

@@GeorgeandDan thnks for ur reply!

Hey, three years ago it was 5 GCSEs A-C or equivalent but it should say online :)

I am from India I have done +2 n hv done my diploma in aviation,hospitality,and customer service from frankfinn can I get job as a cabin crew in British airways

I imagine so, but this would be a question for British airways as I wouldn’t know the exact requirements

Thank u so much for the help

Hey, I know there was a height restriction, but I couldn’t tell you the actual answer. It should say on their application as it will mention height to weight ratio and tattoos etc. Sorry I couldn’t be of more use!

I'm pretty sure most airlines say that 6'1 is the max height but you might wanna check just in case!
