Air India on a recruitment drive for Dreamliners

New Delhi: Air India is on a recruitment drive for its Dreamliners. The airline hopes to receive the first batch of the 27 Boeing 787s by November-end.
Besides experienced crew staff, the national carrier is looking to bring in freshers.
Aviation experts said Air India would need a minimum of 1, 000 new cabin members for the Dreamliners.
“We want to change the face of the airline. A fresh young crew will be one of the highlights of the Dreamliners, although experienced crew will also be recruited. We will try and have a whole new cabin crew set-up. The existing crew on our other aircraft might not be used at all but we are still chalking things out,” said a senior Air India official.
The crew members for B777 and B787 Dreamliner fleet, to fly mostly on international routes, will be appointed on a fixed-term contract for three years and will be based mainly out of Delhi.
Delay in the delivery of aircraft, however, has affected plans. “We would have been able to train our staff better if the aircraft were delivered on time but as it is not possible we will have to manage somehow,” added the official.
Dreamliners will be an integral part of Air India’s turnaround plan and will be part of the operations as soon as they land in India.
