Anyone aspiring to become a flight attendant and can travel to Singapore next week should take note, as this opportunity could mark the beginning of a promising career with Emirates, one of the world's leading airlines. The Middle Eastern full-service carrier will be in Singapore on Tuesday for a recruitment drive aimed at hiring 5,000 new cabin crew members this year.

Emirates has announced its intention to increase its global cabin crew by 25%, primarily to have trained personnel ready for the induction of new Airbus A350s later this year and Boeing 777Xs scheduled for 2025. As part of this effort, Emirates is holding a recruitment event in Singapore on July 16 for candidates interested in joining its multinational team of flight attendants.

This year, Emirates' recruitment team is conducting open days and assessments in over 460 cities across six continents. This extensive effort underscores the airline's urgent need for additional cabin crew. Besides highlighting career opportunities with the airline, Emirates is also promoting the benefits of living and working in Dubai's dynamic and cosmopolitan environment.
