Norwegian launches pilot recruitment drive
Norwegian is recruiting new pilots for its Dublin base opening later this year to support an expansion of its international operations, including new transatlantic routes from Dublin, Cork, Shannon and Belfast.
The base will initially include about 40 pilots, but Norwegian said more pilots and cabin crew might be needed at Dublin next summer.
Earlier this year, Norwegian launched 24 weekly transatlantic flights from Cork, Shannon, Dublin and Belfast to New York, Boston and New England.
It is looking for pilots who hold a Boeing 737 operational certificate to be located at the new Dublin base. To support the recruitment process, a series of roadshows are planned, the first of which takes place tomorrow at 2pm at Clayton Hotel, Dublin Airport.
Further roadshows are also planned in October and November. Details are available at http://careers.norwegian.com/pilot/meet-us-and-our-crew.
