Interesting article.
 

Thanks for sharing, Yahillwe.

When I saw the title I thought they are releasing a new First with Platinum trimmings instead of the Gold ones!

For everyone who was at the Dubai DO, there's a lot of familiar names and training procedures in the article!

Great, article, thanks. I like this line: "The trainees also get a primer on the travel industry, learning about everything from loyalty programs to duty-free merchandise."

It's great that the airline believes that young cabin crew should understand a bit about the business model and what it's like to be in the customer's shoes.

Great find. Never knew that they had a real simulator .

I wanted to go to the Dubai do, unfortunately something came up and couldn't go. Was told that they went to HQ and went through the whole thing.. One thing that, the person who told me, was impressed by is the amount of heat sliding down the shoot generates.... Sorry that I missed it maybe next time. And Ung1 can correct me if I am wrong.

That's why I always wear jeans while flying. I don't want to end up looking like this in case i have to use it :-) http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_8DKFcz1Ehi......-monkey.jpg

hahahah......absolute brilliant ^^

May you Doc never have to use it. :D

Having been down the slide, I can totally agree to that.

Yes, the most important thing they don't put in the safety videos onboard is that you shouldn't wear nylon underwear!
