New York

Again it’s a late post about my New York trip. I use the word “Trip” because I never take my operation flight as a work. I try my best to enjoy every single flights and destinations even it’s a short layover. Last year November I got my D Visa (Crew U.S visa).Feel blest when I got my U.S visa as a crew who just flying for 7 months that time in my current company.(normally need to fly above 1 year) I got my first U.S flight on December 2013,operating to New York(JFK). Of course I’m so excited =D

13hours flight,such a looooong flight from Jeddah. First of all I feel appreciate and at the same time I’m quite nervous. LoL~ U.S flight we are having different kind of services from other flights and I’m taking Business class galley position. Some thing new for me. Luckily I’ve a very helpful and kind main galley crew colleague. Feel appreciate because I learned a lot. Thanks to one of the lazy crew member too because of her working efficiency ,I gotto do her part too. But it’s OK,I learned.

After arrived, it was 1300 local time in NY,8 hours behind Jeddah time, JETLAG @_@ Hotel’s far away from the airport. After arrived to the hotel I changed immediately and went out alone. In the hotel I met a very kind driver who drove me to the train station. He gave me a lot of useful information about how to take the local and time available to pick me up from the same station.

#1 ,2   Prepare myself and GO! I'm going to see real city. ^_^ 

U.S’s train service was not that convenient as Europe. Anyway I still manage to get to my desire destination, New York Time Square. The city was awesome full with colorful lights billboards. I keep on walking non stop because the weather was freezing.

Belated Vacation Month Post

My decision & Turkey

I no more update my blog as frequent like few years ago when I was still in uni,I’m sorry bout that. But one thing makes me less blogging is because of the wifi connection here. No,there’s no wifi supplying by the compound. I’m only using my Hotspot from my smart phone and the connection is sucks.

Alright forget bout the idiot connection. Last post was blogging bout my life in Jeddah here and today I’m going to tell you bout my latest news. Oh ya,before I forgot,Thank you some readers who giving me some comments bout my post, appreciate it. You guys are my motivation of continue blogging.

First thing I want to say is “I decided to stay in Jeddah!” Ya,I’m not transferring back to Malaysia. Surprise? Hmmm… Reasons that I’m staying as simple as ABC,guess what?

I just want to achieve my dream to join in a better airlines. Never give up with this goal. I’m still learning and fight for it. Another reason is after transferring back to KL base I will have no more chance to other destinations,gotto say good bye to my Paris,London, Johannes berg…etc. Common,I’m not going just to fly KUL-JED-KUL and layover in Jeddah and getting domestic layover expenses. NO WAY! Kind of major reason of refuse to go back to Malaysia base too. Agree? Next,no more cheap tickets and base allowance. No again for me. I’m not originally from KL so I gotto rent a house or room,I’ve to drive(there’s drivers here sending me to work ),paying toll and petrol. Every thing’s expensive except KANGKUNG. LoL~ So So So, better for me to stay. “Sah?” in Arabic is “Right?”  ^_^

Where were my last destination last time? London!

After that I went to Istanbul in Turkey. Pictures tell better than words,enjoy!   

 Blue Mosque

 with flying partner(left) and gentleman first officer. 

 Local tea. Not thing special.

I never expect that Istanbul is such an amazing beautiful city.Wow,to Istanbul! It’s only 25hrs layover I couldn’t do much. And wasted a lot of time waiting SOME people. Hate it. If there’s next time,I will visit Hagia Sophia,Galata Tower and Taksim. For sure!

Coming up next will be JFK.What’s JFK? You will know soon. Good night for now,sweet dream everyone. =)  

Overcome the pass 9 Months

Well,it has been 9 months here in Jeddah. I have already get used to every things here,the people,the cultures,even their praying time “event” which is no shops are allow to open during that period,no matter is shopping malls or streets shops or market. Five times per day(sigh).No choice (=_=) So normally what we will do during this period as a none Muslim like ME? For example I’m going to shopping mall,I’ll make sure I reach to the mall at 5pm because 12pm to 5pm is close for their prayer and rest. You must be asking why they take so long time? The answer is “I don’t know!” You can say they might be lazy or concert bout rest time. Up to you. But shopping mall business time until midnight 12.

9 months here, unbelievable! I’m surviving here for 9 months without cinema,alcohol, karaoke or any other entertainments. Don’t get me wrong,I’m not complaining but it’s the real life here. Somehow it’s another way of saving money =p. It’s a good idea right.

Things that I ignore here to make my life easier. First, IGORE impolite and rude people. Why let these kind of people destroy your day and make yourself up set.Right? Hahahahaha… I know I’m so bad. Ok,let’s put this topic aside. What I can tell is different culture different lifestyle. There’s a Malaysian passengers told me “Tak keluar tak tau.” I’m totally agreed with that. After experienced the life here and explore to different countries, I’m glad to be Malaysian honestly. I’m well educated, I speak four languages(advantage) and well carry of myself =) So much of appreciate.

Recently my previous readers are here now with me in same company. They recognize me,and  happy that I’m willing to reply their questions before. It’s really make me happy =) And its also a motivation for me to continue blogging. Some of the girls they asked my advices and opinions and they are in flying training now. Although I didn’t see them and meet them before but I’m so happy to see them achieving their dream.

    

Fuxk Up Day

First of all sorry to boys and girls who have been reading or following me.Today my post gonna be a little bit vulgar. But I gotto share this to all my fellows friends here.

Today I was getting R1 position (job related : serving business class and cockpit crews)For the passed 6 months this position was rarely come to me. Well, although I’m not really familiar with this position but I’m going to give myself a learning opportunity. So before the flight I had informed the purser that this is only my first time serving in business class(officially),and he did asked how long was I’m flying hre,so that he knows how much skills and knowledge that I have. OKie,after seat belt off. I was asked to do this and prepare that and bla bla bla. Was full load in business class,I almost fainted with one demanding passenger while serving the rest at the same time. This second Arabic coffee, after 5 minutes apple juice with one ice cube another 1 minute he wants hot green tea. “HELLO~ You think you are the only one in business class meh?”But what can I do? Still have to serve him with whatever he wants mah~ Some more with a smile on my face. (Actually inside me was mumbling…How many more cups do you want?) Finally,after feeding all my passengers and collected the trays,here comes my time to take a deep breath and relax. I thought. Hmmm… You too?

NO! The story has just begun.

  Two of my pretty crews came to my galley and took some of their favorite breakfast. One of them ask my permission for a bottle of fresh juice. I checked there’s extra two more in my chart so of course why not? After they left the purser came to me and asked me in sarcastic way “Why you let her bring the whole bottle of fresh juice to the back?” I explained there’s two more extra juices so I allowed her to bring it to the aft galley and share with the rest of the crew members. He started to be unhappy with me and keep on talking to me in very bad way. Fine. I replied him in a straight forward way too. “If you doesn’t allow the crew to have the bottle of juice why not you just let her know and tell her the reason. You were here at that time.” He said “I want to see what you will do.” Harr… ??? Are you challenging me? I cant fight back,he’s purser. I can only say sorry  and feel grievance with doing not thing wrong. At that moment my tears was rolling in my eyes.

I want to leave this air craft as soon as possible and I don’t want to see him any more. Luckily that was only 2 short sectors. Alright, this incident CASE CLOSE.

I went back to flight operation sign off my duty and went to second floor female crew lounge and settle some of my visa documents stuff. As usual I left my trolley at the corner beside the lift which all the crews did. After done every thing and came down I was WTF where’s my trolley! Somebody took it by mistake. I keep looking around and keep my eyes on every single bags passed by me. No, those are not my bag =(    Without wasting any time I went to see duty manager and he’s playing “Tai Chi” ,pushing the job to others. Asked me to see my group supervisor. Fine ,again I went to see my group supervisor,Miss F. Again and again I tell how was my trolley bag lost and suddenly I heard she said some thing that I totally unexpected. Guess what? … “That’s your fault!” WHAT!? How come its my fault? I was stunned with that UNEXPECTED  and cruel replied. Have you ever think of my feeling of losing my trolley bag with all my belongings inside. I’m sure she did not! Her cool and heatless facial expression telling you that she don’t care at all. After explaining why that’s my fault she played “Tai Chi” again (wondering is this the company style?) She asked me to look for another supervisor .Sigh. Third person I met,Miss O. Again again and again I tell how I lost my trolley bag’s history. Finally I felt somebody is doing some thing for me. Write report,yes,that’s all.

Miracle happened…

I was so depressed and up set,walking down from the stairs with the heavy steps. When I reached the end of the stair I saw a crew walked pass in front of me and I was shocked! Screaming from the heart “Stop!That’s my trolley bag my dear!” The crew looked back and surprised with my voice. She didn’t realize that wasn’t her trolley bag at all. She apologize and I had accepted. And the best part is she was the random crew sitting beside me  and chit chat with early in the morning before our flight. Feel blessed =)
