Video: Behind the Scenes – How Emirates Train Their New Cabin Crew?
I visited Emirates Aviation Training College in Dubai where Emirates trained their cabin crew. The new Emirates cabin crew (ab initio) went through an intensive 8 weeks of training and exams to be qualified to fly.
I was given a behind-the-scenes tour of Emirates' new cabin crew training including safety and emergency procedure (SEP) such as sliding, aircraft ditching, smoke and fire in the cabin. Then I observed First Aid Training (GMT) including CPR and newborn baby delivery. After that, I visited the image and uniform to see how the new flight attendant gets groomed to Emirates standard. Last, I went inside the mock-up aircraft trainer to observe the new cabin crew service delivery.
On average, 120 new cabin crew graduate from the Emirates Aviation Training College each week.
