Caitlyn, I did it. I went to the Emirates open day in Oxford on the 18th and got through to the final interview. I am just nervously waiting to find out if that golden call is going to come in. I can’t thank you enough for writing this book. UPDATE: I got the golden call this morning and I’m so ecstatic. My dream is finally coming true.

I don’t know if you’ll remember me; I bought your book in early 2006 when I was starting our my Cabin Crew Career and at the time you gave me lots of really good advice. Since securing my first Cabin Crew Job last year with Excel Airways I’ve been having a fantastic time working for a Swedish Airline, Viking (you probably haven’t heard of them, they only have 4 aircraft). I’ve been based in Crete this summer and have been flying from Heraklion Airport, mostly to France and Belgium, I even qualified as Senior Cabin Crew earlier in the year.

First of all, i’d like to say thank you for the precious book and all the important information you gave every time I wrote you. I’m so happy because they called from Emirates telling I was approved to work with them. I’m going to Dubai in January. I’d like to wish you a Merry Christmas and New Year full of happiness. Thank you once more i’ll be in touch. A big Hug.
