Etihad Airways has crowned cabin crew member Joy Seesante with the award for Best Cabin Crew Smile 2012.

Launched in May 2012, the internal smile competition is part of an ongoing Etihad Airways Guest Services campaign called ‘Leading the world with a smile’, which focuses on showcasing the carrier’s warmth, respect and hospitality through its cabin crew.

The 2012 campaign comprised a photography competition and more than 3,000 Etihad Airways cabin crew were invited to enter images of themselves wearing their best smiles in any of the UAE carrier’s 86 global destinations.

Thousands of images from Etihad Airways cabin crew smiling in all parts of the world were submitted, with winners announced every month and finalists for the Best Cabin Crew Smile 2012 forwarded for final voting by fellow Etihad Airways cabin crew.
