Emirates to hire 3,000 cabin crew and 500 airport staff

Dubai-based carrier has started a worldwide campaign to recruit 3,000 cabin crew and 500 airport services staff to join its Dubai hub over the next six months.

It comes as Emirates seeks to ramp up operations as it gradually restores its network operations in line with the easing of travel restrictions around the world. 

The frontline customer-facing positions will be based in Dubai, the airline said in a statement.

Interested candidates can find out more about the job requirements and submit their application online.

The airline has been recalling pilots, cabin crew and other operational employees who were stood down when the pandemic forced a drastic reduction in flights last year.

The airline currently flies to over 120 cities, representing 90 per cent of its pre-pandemic network, and it plans to restore 70 per cent of its capacity by the end of the year, including bringing back more of its iconic A380 aircraft into active service.
