Join the Fly Erbil cabin team: keep every passenger safe, deliver warm Kurdish hospitality in the sky and fly across the Middle East and Europe. No experience needed — full paid training provided.

About the Role

Fly Erbil is looking for friendly, confident and safety-minded people to join our cabin crew. Based at Erbil International Airport, you will be the face of Fly Erbil on board: responsible first for the safety of every passenger, and then for the warm Kurdish hospitality our guests remember.

Give first aid and manage medical situations, disruptive passengers and emergencies calmly and by the book
Complete flight reports, cash and duty-free reconciliation and safety reports accurately
Work as one team with the Senior Cabin Crew, the flight deck and ground staff
