About crew member waits

C-1/D crew applicants are usually expedited — pilots, flight attendants, and merchant mariners are time-critical workers and most posts will accommodate operational rosters from major carriers. Posts in maritime hubs (Manila, Mumbai, Athens, Piraeus through Athens, Istanbul) handle disproportionate share of crew traffic. If a wait below looks alarmingly long, contact the post directly with your employer's letter — there is almost always a faster path than the public number suggests.
