LH to expand

[Freak On A Leash]

Raed in the local paper this morning that Lufthansa is planning to expand next year, and to employ around 400 pilots.

Any truth to this at all?Links?

Info seems correct. Next year's plans at LH: 340 new pilots, 1800 FAs, and 410 ground personel in FRA and MUC. Plus 600 university graduates including 100 engs.

P.S.: LH have started to accept ready entries again and just took 60 swiss pilots.

Maybe time to pick up on the german language skills again then...

First you will need to survive the struggle with LBA to obtain a validation of your licence....

Horrible!

[Kerosene Kraut]

Well, if LH really wanted foreign pilots LBA never got in their way. Remember the gents from Romania back then?

My point exactly......

So as far as I am concerned....these are just rumours!!!

Information is 100% true. Lufthansa is looking for Ready Entry Pilots. You have to be able to read this in German: http://www.lufthansa-pilot.com. Go to Direkteinstieg and you may read essentials. Good luck. :)
