An Irish cabin crew member gives her insight on life in Dubai and working her dream job.

Have you ever dreamt of a life that involved travelling the world and working at 38,000 feet? Well, you’re in luck as Emirates is hosting cabin crew open days in three Irish cities this November and December. Recruits will have the opportunity to work for the world’s largest international airline, which currently employs over 20,000 cabin crew and flies to more than 130 passenger destinations worldwide. Successful candidates will be provided with free accommodation in the heart of Dubai as well as a tax-free salary.

The open days are as follows:

  • Cork, 8 November at 9am in The Metropole Hotel, MacCurtain Street, Cork
  • Dublin, 27 November at 9am in The Hilton, Charlemont Place, Dublin 2
  • Galway, 29 November at 9am in the Maldron Sandy Road, Headford Point, Galway
  • Dublin, 16 December at 9am in the Radisson Blu Royal Hotel, Golden Lane, Dublin 8
  • Galway, 18 December at 9am in the Maldron Hotel Sandy Road, Headford Point, Galway
  • Cork, 20 December at 9am in The Metropole Hotel, MacCurtain Street, Cork

All recruitment events are walk in events and pre-registration is not required. However, it is recommended that candidates read the requirements before they arrive, which can be found here: https://www.emiratesgroupcareers.com/cabin-crew/

Éabha Sloyan of Kilkenny, Emirates Cabin Crew and a NUIG graduate, labels her year and a half in Dubai as transformative. Part of the 200 Irish recruits, she celebrates her ‘dream job’ that has taken her to destinations like Bali, Rio, and Tokyo. Éabha enjoys her monthly roster surprises and the company’s bidding system that fulfils her travel desires. Recently, she represented Emirates at a Lions vs. Stormers game in Johannesburg as part of the business promotion team. Inspired by Éabha’s experiences, her sister Doireann is currently training with Emirates in Dubai.

A truly multicultural organization, Emirates employs more than 160 nationalities. All Emirates cabin crew are based in Dubai and the city is home to iconic shopping malls, the world’s tallest towers, including the Burj Khalifa, amazing restaurants, five-star hotels, beaches, mountains, cultural attractions, and a buzzing nightlife.

Successful candidates starting off on their cabin crew careers will undergo an intense eight weeks of training in the highest standards of hospitality, safety and service delivery in Emirates’ state-of-the-art facility in Dubai. Emirates Cabin Crew is a rewarding career path where you not only learn social, life and professional skills but also can rise from entry level to becoming a purser, based on performance and assessments.

“Working as cabin crew for Emirates has been a rewarding career and I’ve learned valuable social and life skills. On arrival in Dubai, I lived in employee accommodation with other cabin crew similar to my age who I now consider my friends. All cabin crew receive a tax-free salary and 30 calendar leave days per year. Besides complimentary annual leave flight tickets, all cabin crew enjoy deeply discounted flight tickets for themselves, self, dependents and wider family and friends, so that you can travel, explore and experience new cultures and the world together. And what’s more, we have employee cards that give us access and deep discounts to a range of lifestyle, education and retail outlets.”

Emirates operated its first flight from Ireland in January 2012. The airline currently offers customers two daily flights from Dublin to Dubai, and onwards to more than 140 destinations. Emirates is the world’s largest international airline, with the largest fleet of A380s and Boeing 777s, that serves a truly global network. Successful cabin crew recruits will wear the Emirates iconic uniform and travel the world on one of the youngest and most modern fleets in the world.
