Iceland’s PLAY is hiring 150 flight attendants and 55 pilots to meet the airline’s growth next summer. Both experienced and inexperienced individuals are welcome to apply.
The airline said that this recruitment drive marks the largest hiring yet for PLAY. All new crew members must be based in Iceland.
The plan falls in line with PLAY’s growth trajectory in the coming year, as the airline plans to operate ten aircraft next summer.
As of the summer of 2022, the airline is recruiting 150 flight attendants and 70 pilots who are all supporting the airline’s launch of its hub and flight routes between the US and Europe, via Reykjavik.
PLAY is now operating three Airbus A321neo and three Airbus A320neo aircraft.
The airline says it will take delivery of four new A320/321neo aircraft next winter, bringing the fleet to a total of 10 aircraft in service from spring 2023.
Birgir Jónsson, CEO of PLAY said “This is the right time to begin hiring for our growth next summer. I am truly excited to welcome new members to our team and we are proud to be able to provide all these new jobs.”
PLAY encourages all crew to “bring their authentic selves to work” and have already caught the attention of international travellers due to the crew’s comfortable and gender-neutral clothing.
The company said in a statement that all PLAY staff can show tattoos and piercings at work, and wear their hair in whatever shade they choose.
