Irish budget carrier Ryanair has detailed its expansion plans for 2017, which will see it add 50 aircraft and create over 3,500 new jobs.
The aircraft will be sourced from Ryanair’s existing orders.
“Ryanair announced that it will be hiring 2,000 new cabin crew, 1,000 pilots and 250 aircraft engineers, as well as promoting over 300 first officers on its command upgrade program across its 84-base European network. A range of new positions will also be created in IT, Sales & Marketing, Digital Experience, Finance and Commercial at Ryanair’s Dublin office, and also at its Travel Labs Poland subsidiary in Wroclaw,” Ryanair said.
The growth forms part of Ryanair’s plan to expand from 355 to over 500 aircraft over the next five years.
