Ryanair Is Recruiting at East Midlands – Your Cabin Crew Journey Begins.
No Experience Necessary – Just Enthusiasm and Team Spirit. Ryanair Group is expanding its cabin crew family, and we're hosting a Recruitment Day at East Midlands Airport. If you've been thinking about a career that takes you across Europe, introduces you to people from all walks of life, and offers genuine opportunities to climb the ladder quickly—this could be your moment. You don't need aviation experience. You don't need a specific degree. What you need is a genuine passion for customer service, a willingness to learn, and the kind of energy that makes a cabin feel welcoming.
Cabin Crew International, our official recruitment partner, is recruiting Cabin Crew for 2027. Event Date: East Midlands – 2nd December 2026. Once your application has been reviewed, you'll receive an invitation to attend.
What Makes Ryanair Different?
As Europe's largest airline group, carrying over 600,000 guests on more than 3,600 daily flights, we offer something genuinely rare: the scale and stability of a major airline combined with real opportunities for rapid career progression. From day one, you'll be part of a 16,000-strong cabin crew community operating across 90+ bases. And the perks? They're some of the best in the business: Discounted staff travel to over 250+ destinations across the Ryanair network. A fixed roster pattern—so you can actually plan your life. Free training—we cover the cost, you bring the commitment. Industry-leading pay—your effort is properly rewarded.
Your Training Journey – From Beginner to Cabin Crew.
Your path to becoming a qualified cabin crew member begins with a 6-week training course, where you'll learn everything you need to deliver a top-class safety and customer service experience to our guests. The course is intensive—you'll study and sit exams at regular intervals—but it's designed to prepare you thoroughly. At the end, you'll complete Supernumerary flights and receive your Cabin Crew Wings, officially marking your arrival as part of the Ryanair family.
Where Could This Take You?
The career opportunities here are genuinely endless. Many of our crew have progressed to become:
- Number 1 (Senior Cabin Crew).
- Base Supervisor.
- Regional Manager.
- Director of Inflight.
The Honest Truth About the Job.
Life as Cabin Crew is fun and rewarding—but it's also demanding, and safety is our number one priority. You'll work both early and late shifts: Early roster: Report for duty as early as 5:00 AM. Afternoon roster: Not return home until midnight. If you're not a morning person, think carefully before applying. But if you're ready for a career that's anything but ordinary, this could be exactly what you've been looking for.
