Airport striving to fill 400 new jobs ahead of expected summer travel boom

One of the country's busiest airports is looking to recruit an extra 400 staff ahead of an expected surge in overseas travel. The vacancies are available at Luton Airport as passengers numbers begin to bounce back after pandemic travel restrictions.

Posts available include various retail and hospitality roles, aviation security officers, fire fighters, car park and passenger transport roles. There are also jobs with the Direct Air-Rail Transit (DART) system, which will link the airport terminal with Luton airport Parkway railway station.

Chief executive Alberto Martin 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.
