London Luton to recruit hundreds of new staff

London Luton is recruiting for 400 new roles across the airport as passenger figures indicate a promising recovery for the airport.

A busy ski season and half-term city breaks boosted numbers last month, with a total of 611,00 passengers using the airport in February.

Geneva, Amsterdam and Belfast topped the most popular destinations, followed by Edinburgh, Glasgow and Paris.

Ahead of an anticipated busy summer, boosted by the announcement all remaining Covid-19 travel restrictions are to be lifted on Friday, the airport is recruiting for 400 new roles.

Jobs available include aviation security officers, fire fighters and retail and hospitality staff and positions related to the direct air-rail transit system, which will link the airport terminal with Luton Airport Parkway railway station.

Alberto Martin, chief executive of LLA, said: “We are confident that demand for air travel is returning given the busy half term period, and will only increase further with the relaxation of the final travel restrictions at the end of this week.

“Though reaching our pre-pandemic figures will be tough, flying to the UK is now as easy as it was before, removing a key barrier to booking for many passengers.

“Hiring key staff will be essential to accommodate this anticipated uplift, and we look forward to recruiting ahead of what we know will be a busy summer season.”
