Hi. I'm Rank. I'm flying to Sydney. It's Emirates cabin crew today, and I'm taking you with me. It's been a long time since I was last in Australia, so I've been really excited about this flight since I saw it on my roster. Once we've arrived to Emirates headquarters, we check-in and head to our pre flight briefing where the worst and captain take us through everything we need to know about the flight. I'm business class cabin crew, and that will be my area of responsibility today. After the briefing, we go to Dubai International Airport. We stow our carry on items and conduct our pre flight duties. This usually entails checking that everything is neat and making sure we have everything we need for our passengers. And now we're ready for boarding. Good morning. We offer welcome drinks, hand out hot towels, and distribute today's in flight dining menu. Once all the passengers have boarded, we close the doors, strap into our seats, push back from the gate, and head to the runway. It's not long before we're in the air. Once we're at cruising altitude, the seat best sign is switched off, and we change into our service uniform. We usually have free meal services on long flights like this. Today, we're starting with lunch. I speak with all my passengers and get their lunch orders, or head into the galley to assist with meal preparation. This passenger wanted cream of sweetcorn soup as an appetizer, followed by grilled beef tenderloin for their main worse, and banana walnut cake for dessert. We don't spend the entirety of the long haul flight on tier. So after the first meal service is completed, it's time to get some rest. For these breaks, we change into our crew pajamas, which are super cute, and head down to the crew best compartment. Time for some shut eye. A few hours later, I'm feeling refreshed and back on duty. The rest of the flight goes by in a flash. I cover briefly for one of our crew in the onboard lounge while she takes a break. Then we have our two final meal services. And before you know it, we're ready to land in Sydney. Now I've got a twenty four hour layover in Sydney, which I fully intend to make the most of before flying back to Dubai. Thanks for flying with me today, and hopefully I'll see you on board soon.
