Over 6,600 jobs are available at the country’s airport.

Singapore, which has flung open its borders again, is hosting a two-day job fair through May 28 targeting everyone from graduates to mid-career professionals and former aviation workers who quit during the Covid crisis. Over 6,600 jobs are available at the country’s airport, often voted the world’s best.

Hong Kong’s Cathay Pacific Airways Ltd., which saw its workforce shrink 37% from a 2019 high to the end of 2021, sent out emails to hundreds of former cabin crew to gauge their interest in rejoining the company, according to a person familiar with the matter. It’s an uphill task for a carrier hit harder than most due to Hong Kong’s travel restrictions.

According to SITA Baggage IT Insights, airlines mishandled 24% more bags in 2021 than in 2020, as international and long-haul flights resumed. In India, 79% of customers said service and the behavior of airline staff has deteriorated sharply since Covid, a survey undertaken for Bloomberg News shows. Chandelle Chong, 25, who is interning with Dnata, Emirates Group’s aviation services arm, was looking for opportunities at United Parcel Services Inc., Singapore Airlines Ltd.’s budget carrier Scoot and France’s Safran SA. In her final year of studying air-transport management, Chong is upbeat.
