EasyJet recruiting *

Luton-based easyJet has opened recruitment for 1,500 seasonal cabin crew for next summer with around 11,000 applications received to date.  In spite of poor trading results it is confident for the future.

In another positive move it says that many newly qualified cadet pilots are set to begin flying with the airline early next year.   Recruitment for additional Airbus qualified pilots across Europe will commence soon to further support the airline’s ambitions in the recovery.

With sufficient pilots already in place to support operations for summer 2022, the airline is now looking to reopen its cadet pipeline, starting with taking on 150 newly-qualified cadet pilots in the UK who had originally been due to enter the airline at the beginning of the pandemic. They will now join between January and April 2022.

EasyJet has also confirmed it would be expanding its UK fleet with three more aircraft across its Bristol and Manchester bases for the summer 2022 season.  The Manchester base will be larger than ever with 20 aircraft based there connecting the North-West to key cities and holidays destinations across Europe.
