Description

The airline company Vueling, which belongs to IAG group, will hire 200 co-pilots by the summer 2016. Thus, the company will continue increasing its workforce, due to the new routes which have been started since November 2014 . According to the company, co-pilots hired will have a mid-high profile. Vueling has already started operating its first Airbus A321 planes, which require more cabin crew on board i.e. five crew members plus two pilots.
