    No, I didn't get an interview either. I am a nurse and have been airline cabin crew for 6 years so I kinda thought that would tick the right box's but obviously not! I did wonder if it was maybe all internal applicants they went for?

    No it's not the pay, I have children now and long haul cabin crew is really not at all compatible with family life! Thanks for the replies.
