Emirates recruits pilots at full throttle
Emirates recruits pilots at full throttle
Whether to refresh faces or not, they are on the road...
Last week they said they were driving down the road to Abu Dhabi in a bid to recruit additional cabin crew to help service the company’s expanding fleet and route network.
The move Etihad announced, it will no longer provide accommodation allowances to new staff choosing to live outside Abu Dhabi, may well contribute for some shifting of minds.

Hi!
No DEC....yet. QR has been hiring DECs for about 6 mos.
RJs...it is hard to tell. It appears that the mins are changing so fast, different guys have been told different things...such as RJ FOs interviewing, but other RJ capts being told their planes are too small....it is VERY difficult to figure out what times are good or not good!

If this study is even half true, recruitment is not going to get any easier for any airline.
Maybe there will be industry wide improvement in working conditions as competition for our services intensifies.
Of course, I may just be in a delusional state due to fatigue.
Comment: Predicted pilot and engineer demand is unsustainable

What accommodation allowance?
The Arabs are an interesting bunch.
"We need more guys, so let's stir interest!"
"You're right, tell them they can't have an housing allowance and they have to sleep under our roof. They'll love the building work next door, it'll help them sleep."

Flight Global attributes the quote to the senior vice president of flight operations. Who knows. But given that the outstanding Boeing orders, if all else remains equal, would amount to the need for an extra 250 pilots then I think the 700 has some credibility.

Part Time Working
Hi Guys
Dont shoot me down for asking but projecting ahead a little if I do decide to apply to a ME carrier such as Emirates is it possible to aquire a part time roster ie two weeks on two weeks off and maybe commute from either Aus or Uk.
Thanks.
