Delta Air Lines has formed a new partnership with the US Army, strategically connects enlisting soldiers and ROTC cadets to employment opportunities at the airline.
FlightSafety International has been awarded a contract from Delta Air Lines for the design, development, and manufacture of a new full flight simulator (FFS) for the Airbus A350 aircraft.
Inspired by her WING Flight – “Women Inspiring our Next Generation” experience by Delta eight years ago, Gatlyn Ligon, now a Delta Air Lines Pilot, attended this year’s iteration to continue to inspire the next generation of young women.
From September through early Octoer, Delta Air Lines is on the road to meet potential flight attendant candidates in Orlando, Florida; Providence, Rhode Island; Austin, Texas; Minneapolis, Minnesota; and Las Vegas, Nevada.
The airline has switched to an app for in-flight medical support and has also upgraded its medical diagnostic devices, helping its flight attendants respond quicker to medical events.
Young aviators who dream of being Delta pilots now have four different, clearly defined pathways: the new Propel Flight Academy and the growing Propel Collegiate, Company and Community programs.
While this airline currently plans to hire up to 6,000 flight attendants this year, it is not lessening its time-consuming five-step recruitment process.
