Emirates Airlines
Emirates Airlines is ramping up its cabin crew recruiting as it prepares to take delivery of its first Airbus A380 in August. Its Aviation College will begin accepting A380 personnel to its crew training program in early June. Emirates plans to have 24 cabin staff onboard a normal 489-seat A380, and it will need about six complete crews for every aircraft. There will be 158 employees trained for the first four A380s scheduled to arrive and they will be selected from current 777 and A330/A340 staff. In all, 90 new flight attendants join Emirates each week and the carrier employs 9,200 cabin staff from 116 countries. Emirates has invested AED248 million ($67.5 million) in its crew training program, not including flight simulators. It was launched last year. Apr 30, 2008
