THE EXCITING LIFE OF CABIN CREW / PILOT DURING STANDBY

Each month on your flying roster, you have a couple of days of standby. For those who do not know what standby is,it is basically a set of crew on standby( hence the name) to operate a particular flight just in case anyone call sick or unable to fly due to any unforseen circumstances.

Depending on the airline,the one I flew with has a whole month of standby. Yeah,you read it correctly,one whole month. It is known as the "reserve month". It's the time of the month where it's hard to plan for your life as you have absolutely no idea what the month will bring.

Standby period can varies between 8 to 12 hours and you are required to be reachable if crew scheduling were to call you. So you are like being in a prison at home waiting for the “ call of duty”. As the name suggest, if  you were called up for standby, it will be the very last min before the departure of a flight and you will be like scrambling to the aircraft like some sort of a 911 emergency.

You got to be prepared,for example if they were to call you to a destination where it is snowing, you got to have your winter cloths ready or if it a long trip like a 10 days duty,make sure everything sufficient is pack up.

Normally if you are call up for standby,it is always the shitty flights where the crew will call sick such as turnarounds. The chances for people to call sick for layovers/nightstop is lower since there are more money/sightseeing to be made.But sometimes you may be lucky as I have been called up for good flights before :)

So during this period, you are stuck by the phone beside you.Of course, you can risk and chose to go out,but make sure you are reachable as failing to answer or turn up for duty during standby can get you fired ( if you do it often ). But there are always some crew who are trying to be smart by unplugging the phone cord or telling the crew scheduler they have no idea that their mobile's batt has gone flat. Guess they have heard that excuse a million times and either way, they will get you!

If you fly for a private jet or charter company, some of them have no roster at all and basically you are on call all the time. Of course they they will compensate you with higher salary and in some cases better perks and benefits.

Though during standby period, it can be challenging, life at times can be like a mystery and exciting as well. You do not know what will unfold. One min you are in your pajamas, the next thing you knew you will be jet setting to exciting destination such as broadway in new york, shopping in Hong Kong or sipping your favorite coffee in Rome.

15 REASONS TO DATE A FLIGHT ATTENDANT

Just something from the past :)

Pay no attention to flight attendant jokes you’ve heard over the years. If you have the chance to date one, don’t hesitate to book the flight!

Here are 15 reasons why:

1. Flight attendants have free or low-cost standby flight benefits to most destinations. Want a spontaneous weekend in San Francisco or Austin? Done deal.

2. People who fly the friendly skies for a living spend a lot of time away from home, so they’re very appreciative of a familiar face and an intimate evening at home when down time finally arrives.

3. It cannot be said of flight attendants that they don’t get out much. If he or she has chosen to be with you, it isn’t for lack of other options.

4. Flight attendants are trained to stay calm in an emergency and prevent panic in others, skills that come in handy during any conflict in your relationship.

5. A flight attendant is trained to deal gracefully with all sorts of people. Meeting your parents or your best friends—and making a good impression—should be a piece of cake.

6. Someone who chooses to become a flight attendant has a proven sense of adventure. He or she is unlikely to be the wet blanket at a party—or in a relationship.

7. If you’ve always wanted to see the world, a flight attendant will make an excellent travel buddy and tour guide.

8. If you do travel together, there is no need to worry about lugging around a mountain of their luggage. Flight attendants know the value of economy when packing a suitcase.

9. Flight attendants are trained to be efficient, punctual, and organized—admirable qualities in a dating partner, especially if you’ve dated irresponsible, unreliable people in the past.

10. Dinner conversation with a flight attendant is unlikely to be boring. They have an endless supply of interesting stories to tell.

11. Flight attendants may already know that the grass isn’t necessarily greener on the other side of the country (or world), because they’ve been there.

12. Flight attendants wouldn’t last long on their job without strong people skills. Those skills are sure to enhance a dating relationship.

13. Because they spend so much time with people on the move, flight attendants appreciate dating someone with their feet on the ground.

14. Flight attendants face danger on a regular basis—which can give them an attractive zest for life.

15. A flight attendant will reward you generously for a luxurious foot rub at the end of a long trip. Bonus: They may even have an endless supply of honey-roasted peanuts and pretzels!

Perjalanan saya seorang bekas peramugari dan ibu kepada darwisya

Mulanya macam tak sangka, boleh ke jadi pramugari. Masa tu umur baru 18 tahun nak masuk 19. Darah masih muda tapi sebab I ni takdela kurus mana so cuba je la pegi interview. Nak ikutkan time tu nak pakai make up pun tak reti. Lipstik pun tak pernah beli, pakai mak punya. Nama pun rezeki kan and dah tersurat agaknya rezeki nak jadi pramugari, maka dapat la offer letter untuk wat medical check up. By Oktober 2001 mula la training dan kehidupan jadi pramugari yang memang tak akan I lupakan selama 4 tahun dengan MH. Pahit manis masam masin suma ada.

Bila berhenti MH ikutkan nak kahwin tapi tak kesampaian, jodoh takde agaknya. So, sempat keje kat Hotel Quality Shah Alam di mana jumpa la hubby. Cinta berputik hinggala keharini. Hasilnya Puteri Darwisya.
Panjang lagi ceritanya.. to be continued. xoxo
