Delta Air Lines has opened the flight attendant opportunity and is seeking to hire additional flight attendants.

Since hiring and training ramped back up last year, Delta expects to have a total of 4,500 new flight attendants on the front line by the end of 2022. Another round of hiring will begin in the spring/summer, and 40 graduating classes are scheduled for this year – part of the company’s commitment to unparalleled customer service and emerging stronger from the COVID-19 pandemic.

“As we move our candidates through the hiring process faster, we expect to re-open this posting at a more frequent cadence,” said Jennifer Martin, Managing Director – IFS CX, Learning and Hiring. “We’re excited to continue growing Delta’s In-Flight Service team and welcome more flight attendants to serve our customers as the world continues to reopen.”

Interested candidates can apply starting today at delta.com/careers by searching for the job title “flight attendant,” or they can apply through this link. It is recommended to submit your application as soon as possible as the job is in high demand and may only be posted for a few weeks.

Note that if a candidate previously applied to the flight attendant position in August 2021 or January 2022 and was not selected to advance, they will not be able to reapply at this time. There will be an opportunity to reapply this summer.
