The Latvian airline Air Baltic is hiring a total of 120 additional pilots for the Airbus A220-300 aircraft. Some of the new pilots are graduates of the company's Air Baltic Pilot Academy.

“While we continue to employ our Air Baltic Pilot Academy graduates and re-hire former employees, this time our need for additional staff continues, so we are looking for external pilots to join our company. The additional pilots are needed to prepare the airline for the capacities that we will fly to in the summer of 2023," explains company boss Martin Gauss.

Applicants must be EU Citizens, hold a valid EU FCL CPL or ATPL license (EASA Form 141) and have completed at least 300 hours in Commercial Air Transport (CAT) on airplanes with EFIS, FMA and FMS systems – the MTOW of the aircraft must be at least 5,7 tons. Air Baltic currently employs 315 pilots.
