Dubai's award-winning airline Emirates has announced an ambitious global recruitment campaign to expand its world-renowned cabin crew team. The luxury carrier is seeking thousands of new flight attendants to join its prestigious inflight service team.
Why Emirates Stands Out as an Employer
Successful candidates will enjoy an exceptional employment package that includes:
- Tax-free salary with additional hourly flying pay
- Luxury accommodation in Dubai with all utilities covered
- Comprehensive medical insurance and dental care
- Extensive travel benefits including discounted flights and hotel stays
- Career progression opportunities within the rapidly expanding airline
Who Can Apply for These Coveted Positions?
Emirates is looking for candidates who meet specific criteria:
- Minimum age of 21 years
- Arm reach of 212cm while standing on tiptoes
- Minimum high school education
- Fluency in written and spoken English
- Positive attitude and strong customer service orientation
- Ability to adapt to new environments and cultures
The Recruitment Process Explained
The selection process involves several stages designed to identify the best candidates:
- Online application through Emirates' career portal
- Assessment day with group exercises and interviews
- Final interview with recruitment team
- Comprehensive training programme in Dubai
Life as Emirates Cabin Crew
New recruits undergo an intensive 8-week training programme covering safety procedures, service standards, and grooming requirements. Once qualified, crew members operate flights to over 130 destinations across six continents, experiencing diverse cultures while delivering Emirates' famous five-star service.
The airline particularly values candidates with hospitality or customer service experience, though comprehensive training ensures all successful applicants meet Emirates' exacting standards.
This recruitment drive comes as global air travel continues to rebound strongly, with Emirates expanding its fleet and route network to meet growing passenger demand for luxury air travel experiences.
