Ryanair needs many pilots to fill its operational needs as the airline has 210 new Boeing 737 MAX airplanes in order.
“As we take delivery of more than 210 Boeing 737-8200 gamechanger aircraft, Ryanair will recruit 2,000+ pilots over the next 3 years to fill positions created by this growth. This is great news for experienced and aspiring pilots but also for our pilots who will enjoy fast tracked promotions.” - Darrel Hughes, Ryanair’s People Director
