What is it which we do exactly?

Working during bmibaby there is no such thing as the standard day! We work in such the quick paced environment my day can change hugely. we am obliged for the oversight of the airlines ongoing business, from day to day management, by to longer tenure strategic planning. My team demeanour after the blurb side, which encompasses sales as well as marketing, network (where we fly as well as when), pricing, patron service, as well as e-commerce. Others areas include operations (the day to day delivery of the flights), engineering (making certain the aircraft have been protected as well as fit to fly), cabin services (offering the in-flight service we pride ourselves on), as well as belligerent services (the airport activities we undertake).

What do we suffer many about what we do?

My credentials is more commercial, though we really suffer th! e tangib le drifting as well as travelling aspects of the job. we try to fly as often as possible to interact with the organisation as well as customers as well as this keeps it real for me in seeing the blurb operation come to life. we also suffer the plea of gripping the blurb operation distinguished in the eyes of the consumer, as well as so suffer interacting with media as well as we do promotional activity.

What would we say have been the 3 best places youve ever stayed?

Fiji: we did the little consulting work for an airline there for the couple of months, as well as grew to adore the place as well as the atmosphere. Relaxing in the hammock upon the beach, watching the sunset while celebration of the mass the book after the tough day in the office cant be beaten!

Montreal: we lived there for dual years, as well as came to know the place as home. The city is one of the friendliest as well as many exciting cities Ive ever known, as well as was such the great brew of North America meets Continental Europe.

Las Vegas: The fountains of Bellagio have been one of my favourite places upon this planet! You can lose yourself in the loftiness of the place, as well as provided we take it all with the full of health splash of salt (and have been sensible with the chips!), we can have the many amazing time!

Whats been your many noted dining knowledge to date?

A Beef Teriyaki dinner in the Bahamas, when the organisation of us sat around the chefs hot image as well as ate from the edges as he rebuilt the food. Ive regularly tried to find Teriyaki which tasted which great since, though am still looking!

Have we burnished shoulders with the abounding as well as famous, possibly by your work or your travels?

In my time as the motion picture physical education instructor we met the couple of celebrities. On one arise we had to ask Stephen Gately what his name was (I knew he was in the child band, though which was all we knew!). we also had to chaperon U2s The Edge out the back doo! rway onc e as word had got around he was there, as well as so he needed to escape! My many noted encounter though was escorting Pierce Brosnan around the motion picture during the premiere we had since the staff pithy instructions not to trouble him, though then went as well as did it myself by asking him if hed have his photograph taken with my girlfriend (I got great spirit points for which though!)

What now ranks highest upon your travel wish list?

I wish to do the long overland speed one day taking the couple of months to travel from the to b. Id like to overland it to the Far East from Europe or from North to South America perhaps. we will one day!

Many thanks, Julian, as well as great luck with your new role during bmibaby.
