Will hire male cabin crew once we reach certain operational scale: Jet Airways

NEW DELHI: Jet Airways will operate flights with female cabin crew members in its start-up phase and hire male cabin crew members once it reaches a certain operational scale, the airline said on Sunday.
It will be following the footsteps of Vistara, which had started hiring male cabin crew in March 2018, approximately three years after it was launched.
Jet Airways, which has not flown since April 17, 2019, is currently in the process of re-launching operations under its new promoters Jalan-Kalrock Consortium. Aviation veteran Sanjiv Kapoor took charge as the Chief Executive Officer of the airline on April 4.
In a statement on Sunday, a Jet Airways spokesperson said, “We have a limited number of NCR-based cabin crew, trained and qualified on the Boeing 737 aircraft, on our rolls to operate our proving flights that should take place soon. Several of them have worked with Jet Airways in the past.”
