flydubai has announced the successful graduation of its 100th batch of certified Cabin Crew members from the flydubai Training Centre. The batch of 27 candidates will join flydubai’s community of 1,650 Cabin Crew members who represent more than 100 nationalities.

The graduates of the training program received their certificates from Ghaith Al-Ghaith, Chief Executive Officer for flydubai, Jilly Sims, Senior Vice President, In-Flight Services for flydubai and Carolyn O’Brien, flydubai’s Cabin Crew Training Manager.

Speaking at the ceremony, Ghaith AlGhaith said: “Over the past eight years, flydubai has trained thousands of Cabin Crew who have applied their learning to make flying a pleasant experience for the millions of passengers who travel with us each year. I would like to congratulate each graduate on their achievement and the highly skilled and professional trainers who have helped us reach this important milestone.”

I am confident that our newly graduated batch will join their colleagues in being high performing Cabin Crew members within the flydubai family.”
