Etihad Airways head of Crew Performance and Support Captain Jihad Matta said: “The last 18 months have been incredibly difficult, however, there is much to be positive about as travel restrictions ease and we ramp up operations to meet growing demand. A critical part of this is rebuilding our cabin crew team.”
