Etihad invited pilots from all ranges and types of aircraft in its fleet, including the Airbus A320, A350 and A380, as well as the Boeing 777 and 787, to attend one of the roadshows or register at careers.etihad.com for more information.

Pilots who do not yet fulfil the Etihad criteria but may wish to join Etihad in the future are also encouraged to attend the roadshow or register their interest online.

Etihad’s pilots fly to more than 70 destinations across Australia, Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Europe and North America.
