Cabin crew, Scotland?

Hi everyone, do you know any other airlines apart from Easyjet, Flyglobespan, Loganair, Thomson and Excel that are recruiting for Glasgow airport or Edinburgh. I have already applied for the above but I want a good chance of being accepted.

Im 20 but will be 21 in June, flyglobespan only recruit people of 21 years or over, do you think that would be a problem?

I got accepted with Ryanair but i dont like their policy, you need to pay and complete training in Dublin then you will be told what base you'll be going to.

Cheers

Sarah

Apply for Flyglobespan, if they like you they will take you at 20 years old.

If the recruiters like you and if you have a solid customer service back ground in the service industry...ie hospitality or something like that then they may make and exception on the age. It's always worth a try.

I do hope i get into Glasgow, do you know which airlines are the best out of Thomas cook, Thomson, Globespan, Easyjet, Ryanair, Excel, Loganair? For pay, the way they treat their employees etc?

Cheers

Don't Do It!

I really would not advise applying to BA Connect/Flybe as BA is about as untrustworthy as it is possible to get.

They treat their current crew shockingly and the wages are nearly the worst in the regions!

Globespan or Zoom would be a good idea though!

Good luck.

Flyglobespan are recruiting now for the summer and running assessment days. I agree with what jet stream says, it is all down to the recruiter on the day, some are sccms from from Glasgow some from Edinburgh. Go for it and good luck.
