But the more I thought about it, the more I wanted to continue with this site - but be more for those who are not on Facebook....<br /><br />First things first - I am reactivating Rent-A-Stew. In the mid 1970's I started a company called Rent-A-Stew, this was a company that was started by three former airline stewardesses to place trained flight attendants on corporate aircraft. We stopped pushing forward when two things happened 1) I got a full time corporate flight attendant job 2) the investors thought it was a stupid idea and that no one would use the service! Guess I was thinking way in advance of what corporate aviation would want! Who knew???<br /><br />So, as things progress with Rent-A-Stew, suggestions, ideas, openings and more will be available on this blog....<br /><br />I just need to crawl with this before I can take off running!!!Contract Fly Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02506336570158118476noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743460133192507615.post-35281578584612709022011-07-07T09:26:00.002-04:002011-07-07T09:27:04.743-04:00Commercial singaporeCompany Name: Air Alsie<br />Position: Cabin Attendant (Kaula Lumpur/Singapore)<br />Description: CABIN ATTENDANTE<br /><br />Full Time Position/ Part Time Position<br /><br />Operation will be based in Kuala Lumpur/ Singapore <br /><br />Minimum education level required is high school <br />qualification or equivalent. <br /><br />At least 1 year corporate flying experience / or 2 years First <br />Class in a major airline - The above mentioned experience is not <br />mandatory, however preferred.<br /><br />Good understanding of exceptional high level of customer <br />service <br />Must be a responsible team player, as well as responsible <br />enough to work independently <br />To be highly flexible, team minded and able to perform well <br />under pressure. <br /><br />Salary is according to your qualifications and work <br />experience.<br />Rotation Work 20/10 <br />A good understanding & conversational skills of <br />English.Additional language is a plus.<br />Excellent interpersonal skills evidenced by the ability to <br />work and communicate effectively with all levels of <br />management and employees.<br />Strong ethical standards and an appropriate professional <br />image <br />Display a high degree of professionalism and integrity . <br />Promote goodwill by<br />being courteous, friendly and helpful to clients, managers <br />and fellow<br />employees <br />Have a genuine interest in food & beverages.<br /> A good understanding of international cuisine.

For the pilots that will not happen. It would not be fair for either work group. UA still has pilot on furlough (both voluntary and invol) but their DOH as senior to that of the junior CO pilots. So, UA will have to bring back the furloughed pilots and this could put CO pilots on the street...not fair. At UA it takes approximately 15-20 years to make it to left seat, at CO about 5....Doing DOH would drop some of those CO left seat folks to right seat thus bringing the UA folks to left seat pretty close to right out of furlough....not fair.<br /><br />This deal is going to take forever to come to an agreement on seniority for the pilot group.Contract Fly Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02506336570158118476noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743460133192507615.post-18446058714802504152011-07-02T23:25:00.002-04:002011-07-02T23:31:50.119-04:00Continental and UnitedThere is a conversation going on Facebook in a Flight Attendant chat about CO and UA. And how CO is ticked off that IAM lost in the union vote on which union would represent all the United flight attendants when the merger is final. AFA won! CO flight attendants are ticked.<br /><br />Their deal now is that they think that the UA flight attendants on voluntary furlough should be the new hires at CO! Excuse me, these flight attendants have lots of seniority and will not go to CO to sit through weeks of training, then to sit reserve in EWR until they can go back to their REAL seniority at UA. Really generous of the CO flight attendant group!!<br /><br />Let's see these vol furloughed flight attendants are probably in their 50's, waiting to see if there is a buyout option for early retirement when the merger is complete. Why would they even think of going to fly at CO and sit reserve in EWR. They are probably comfortable financially..I just don't see this happening. Let AFA have the union group...the only ones bitching about the vote are the CO flight attendants and IAM...sour grapes anyone?Contract Fly Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02506336570158118476noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743460133192507615.post-54318055260614026212011-06-30T18:17:00.001-04:002011-06-30T18:18:54.620-04:00New SiteThere is a new site on Facebook where many of the corporate jobs will be posted.

Why should I charge or take a "commission", "incentive" or "kickback"? I pay for sites that have job listing for flight attendants and then pass on the information. People tell me about jobs and I pass it on. Some agencies contact me and ask me if I know a flight attendant with a specific language or in a specific country. I pass on any information I have and absolutely will not take a referral fee.<br /><br />I took a fee once and I felt guilty about it, I am tempted to write a check and send the fee back. But it has been well over a year and, well, I am not sure the person would understand or even still be at the same location. Guess it is time for me to check.<br /><br />I will continue to post jobs and notes on this site, but please do not ask me for or offer me a "commission", pay it forward - do something for someone else...but please do not send me money. If you want a commission from me...I will gladly send it to your favorite charity...Contract Fly Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02506336570158118476noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743460133192507615.post-1177040790127962602011-06-25T15:36:00.001-04:002011-06-25T15:37:41.079-04:00Challenger 605 EuropeOrascomcrew@gmail.com is looking for a full time flight attendant.

There was one other flight attendant working for this company, she had been there for a few months. I came on to train new flight attendants and fly on an as needed basis. Well this sweet young thing that was there was fresh out of high school, and an absolute know-it-all! I would say hi to her and she would ignore me. I would ask her a question and she would ignore me. I would compliment her on something an she would ignore me! For me this girl was the ultimate bitch. Then it came to the time when she needed recurrent trainin (I did not do her initial). During the recurrent I used the term bulkhead...and she asked me what that was! I asked her a few more questions about the plane and she had no clue. She had been flying for 1 year and had no idea of FAA regulations...(30 seat plane). I took my time with her, got her as up to speed as the company would allow based on timing and my contract pay....<br /><br />I think she felt better after recurrent cuz she then started talking to me! A few weeks later the company let her go... I stayed in touch with her. She applied for a charter airline and the new Director of Ops sent all kinds of garbage to that airline insuring that she would not get the job. She didn't! I tried to help her get back on her feet after this rude play by the 135 operator.<br /><br />Eventually she got a 121 job but that airline returned their 30 seat planes and she was out of work again. I got her on at another 135 carrier where I was doing the training (30 passenger plane). She stayed a year and moved on to another 121 carrier with jets. She is still there. I helped her get this job also.<br /><br />So the end of my story is....to this day she calls me "grams"...she is a kid, I am an old lady..... There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING that I would not do for this person...(as long as it is legal). So, for her to read this, and for everyone to know...when I think about how our friendship evolved, how much I respect her, and how she will always warm my heart....there can be no better friendship than one that starts off rocky!! PVS - I will always be there for you...ALWAYS...Contract Fly Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02506336570158118476noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743460133192507615.post-18316202132678593912011-06-23T12:01:00.002-04:002011-06-23T12:06:17.739-04:00Getting Screwed Giving References!I am reluctant to give references for people that I do not know personally. I am about to make it a personal policy that if I give you a reference and you turn around and screw it up...no second chances.<br /><br />Example, I referred someone for a corporate job...told them what the pay was, hooked them up with my connection and advised them not to dicker on pay! What did they do? Tried to screw around with the pay...so this company comes back to me and asks why I referred that person!!! <br /><br />Another example, I referred someone on another contract and they started the contract and then said they wanted more money! Don't do that. bad kharma! I will never give you a reference again....even though you are still my friend.<br /><br />So, if you are not 1000% comfy giving a reference, don't do it.....My rant for today!Contract Fly Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02506336570158118476noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743460133192507615.post-54340447455394323662011-06-22T17:16:00.001-04:002011-06-22T17:16:18.046-04:00RAK AirwaysCompany Name: RAK Airways<br />Position: Cabin Crew<br />Description: Job Description <br />•Attending a flight briefing, during which crew members <br />are assigned their working positions for the upcoming <br />flight (crew are also informed of flight details, the schedule <br />and if there are passengers with any special <br />requirements, for example being diabetic or a nervous <br />flier - such information is vital to cabin crew members as it <br />enables them to react more quickly to any potentially <br />dangerous situations); <br />•Carrying out flight duties, including checking the safety <br />equipment, ensuring the aircraft is clean and tidy <br />•Ensuring that information in the seat pockets is up to date <br />and that all meals and sufficient supplies are on board <br />•Welcoming passengers on board and directing them to <br />their seats <br />•Demonstrating safety procedures and ensuring that all <br />hand luggage is securely stored away <br />•Checking all passenger seat belts are secure prior to <br />take-off <br />•Making announcements on behalf of the pilot and <br />answering passenger questions during the flight <br />•Serving meals and refreshments to passengers <br />•Selling duty-free goods and advising passengers of any <br />allowance restrictions in force at their destination <br />•Reassuring passengers and ensuring that they follow <br />safety procedures correctly in emergency situations <br />•Giving first aid to passengers where necessary.<br /><br />Knowledge, Skills and Competencies:<br /><br />•Minimum one year experience as a cabin crew member <br />•Good physical condition <br />•Minimum age 18 <br />•Medically fit to meet Cabin Crew GCAA requirement <br />•At least 165 cm in height with weight in proportion <br />•Be able to swim 50 meters unaided <br />•Good communication and listening skills <br />•Competence in handling difficult situations and the ability <br />to remain calm under pressure <br />•Commercial awareness and sales skills; <br />•Flexibility in working unsocial hours on any day of the year <br />•Ability to work quickly and efficiently, often to tight time <br />constraints<br />Ability to work in multi-cultural environment<br /><br />If you are interested in applying for this position, please <br />follow the process listed above along with a recent full <br />colour photo.<br /> <br />Please send us an updated resume together with a cover <br />letter to Cabincrewrecruitment@rakairways.com<br /><br />Address: <br />Ground Floor, OMESTBuilding, <br />Oman Road, Al Nakheel, Ras Al KhaimahRas Al Khaimah<br /><br />Telephone: N/A<br />Fax: N/A<br />Direct Link: http://www.rakairways.com/careers.aspContract Fly Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02506336570158118476noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743460133192507615.post-21823834602070997902011-06-22T11:44:00.005-04:002011-06-27T22:43:36.593-04:00More on Training for Corporate Flight AttendantsBeyond and Above of Florida seems to offer the most for your money. Plus their training cost includes hotel! They also provide a 1 year FREE membership to www.flycontract.com. They include garnishing, plating, catering etc. This gives you a great start in in-flight service. There are other companies that provide more detailed service, but they do not provide emergency training. Beyond and Above needs to update their program and get closer to compliance with FAA regulations. Not sure what is missing, but I would like to see the underdog step up and compete. Hopefully they will step up and compete, only time will tell.<br /><br /><br /><br />CAPS - Corporate Air Parts offers a one day emergeny only training class for a reasonable price, no bells and whistles here.

All are priced differently and offer some of the same modules but one offers more.<br /><br />First there is FACTS - they seem to be the ones that are gobbling up all the little companies that try to work with corporate flight attendants. Other providers seem to join forces with FACTs in an attempt to create a monster training facility. For some, FACTS falls short.<br /><br />Second there is Flight Safety - their big deal is training pilots and they have simulators in their Atlanta facility. Their instructors are almost all from the commercial side of flying but they are nice, friendly and offer a product to be proud of. But they still fall short of getting the best for your buck.<br /><br />More to come!!!Contract Fly Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02506336570158118476noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2743460133192507615.post-64705918894616795422011-06-21T12:09:00.003-04:002011-06-25T17:50:56.712-04:00TrainingFor those who know who I am and actually know me, I am pretty outspoken when it comes to specific topics. One concerns aircraft specific training for corporate flight attendants. My biggest complaint is the monopoly that a couple companies seem to have in this arena - They charge an astronomical fee for training and seem to have brain-washed large companies into believing that they are the only training facilities that should be accepted. This is totally wrong. First, if I am going to spell it out, In the USA the FAA does not require training for cabin servers (flight attendants) on part 91 or 135 aircraft if the aircraft has 19 seat or less. Even if you have had corporate flight attendant training you still are not permitted to operate any emergency equipment on the aircraft. They only way you may do this is if the aircraft operator has an in-house training program approved by the FAA. This means that the operator has submitted training material and manuals (ATOS) completed the SSI's and had the FAA review the complete operation of the company.<br /><br />Considering that the FAA does not require training for 135 and 91 aircraft why are the operators so gung ho on these companies? All these training programs do is provide the student with information. BUT....if you have been (or are) a commercial flight attendant you already have the information on ditching, fires, equipment. What you are lacking is service training. Corporate services is in no way similar to commercial first class service....
