Ryanair is recruiting a large number of Ukrainian pilots and flight attendants to resume work in Ukraine immediately after the end of the war.
This was stated by the general director of the company Michael OʼLeary, writes Reuters.
According to him, Ryanair is ready to resume flights in Ukraine as soon as it becomes safe.
"We are hiring enough Ukrainian pilots and flight attendants specifically so that we can re-establish bases in Ukraine if and when it is safe to do so," OʼLeary noted.
- Civil aviation has stopped flying in the airspace of Ukraine since February 24, 2022.
- In 2021, the Irish low-cost airline Ryanair planned an "aggressive expansion" in Ukraine after signing an "open skies" agreement with the European Union. They wanted to fly there from 12 Ukrainian airports.
