Portuguese candidates, interested in joining their international team of cabin crew, can present themselves on the indicated days and locations without having previously submitted their application. In January they will be present, in addition to the city of Faro, in four other national cities: in Lisbon, on the 20th (DoubleTree by Hilton), in Porto, on the 22nd (Mercure Porto Santa Catarina), in Coimbra, on the 25th (Tivoli Coimbra) and in Braga, on the 27th (Hotel Vila Galé Collection Braga).
These ‘open days’ aim to facilitate recruitment, which can also be done online, according to a report by Postal.
If accepted, candidates must undergo intensive eight-week training in Dubai, at the airline's facilities.
In terms of salary, the average is 2,500 euros, taking into account the monthly base salary and extras with flying hours. And the entire amount you receive is tax-free, as well as being entitled to free facilities in Dubai, free transport to and from work, free medical support and discounts on shopping and activities in Dubai.
Emirates has been flying to Portugal for 11 years and currently offers 14 weekly flights from Lisbon. The airline is the world's largest operator of Boeing 777 and Airbus A380 aircraft.
So a glorified waitress for Emirates will make (a lot) more money, than a doctor in Portugal. Sounds about right. Communists gonna communist. Please tell us more how Portugal is number 1 on some list nobody has ever heard, of and not one single on the planet, except your editor, cares about.....
How about finding a list of how much doctors and teachers earn in first world countries and compare Portugal.........!! Now that's a list I bet a few readers would be interested in.

As a 24 year veteran in the airline industry I wish to warn Portuguese .. Emirates is a horrible employer. They will appear to offer good employment but once they have you in the UAE they own you. And when they are done abusing you - endless demands, no rest, poor pay, horrible work rules - they will dessert you on a whim.

The piece says "the average is 2,500 euros, taking into account the monthly base salary and extras with flying hours. And the entire amount you receive is tax-free".. That means 2500 is NEITHER the minimum NOR actual salary. Also it is not taxed in UAE, but it WILL BE TAXED by Portugal once your transfer the money to PT. Misleading!!
