Emirates’ official pilot careers calendar lists multiple events across the United Kingdom, Belgium and the Netherlands this month, underscoring the airline’s ongoing global talent acquisition drive. According to Emirates’ official Pilot Roadshows schedule published on its careers portal, the roadshows are set to take place as follows: United Kingdom (February 2026) Emirates is hosting roadshows in four major cities during February: Manchester – 9 February at 10:00 and 13:00 Manchester – 10 February at 10:00 Belfast – 11 February at 11:00 and 12 February at 10:00 London Heathrow – 14 February at 10:00 and 13:00; 15 February at 10:00 London Gatwick – 16 February at 10:00 and 13:00; 17 February at 10:00 These sessions are aimed at experienced commercial pilots based in or near the UK.

Belgium and Netherlands (23–24 February 2026) Brussels, Belgium – 23 February at 10:00 and 13:00; 24 February at 10:00 Amsterdam, The Netherlands – 23 February at 10:00 and 13:00; 24 February at 10:00 The Brussels and Amsterdam roadshows target experienced pilots from across mainland Europe. Emirates’ recruitment team will outline eligibility requirements, career pathways, training programmes and lifestyle benefits associated with relocating to Dubai. Emirates’ careers page notes that these sessions are part of a broader global engagement initiative designed to inform prospective applicants about the airline’s pilot recruitment process, role eligibility criteria and career pathways, and to provide a platform for direct interaction with recruitment specialists. Pre-registration is available through the official Emirates Pilot Careers site. Emirates has been actively expanding its pilot workforce to support long-term fleet growth and global network expansion. Last year in 2025, in an official statement on World Pilots’ Day, the airline reaffirmed its commitment to hiring more than 1,500 new pilots over the next two years as part of a wider strategic recruitment push. This hiring effort is positioned alongside Emirates’ commitment to enhancing crew career progression through programmes such as Direct Entry Captain, Accelerated Command and First Officer roles. The carrier’s recruitment efforts also reflect continued strong operational performance and fleet development, including the integration of next-generation wide-body aircraft into service. These developments underline Emirates’ focus on both commercial growth and talent acquisition in a competitive global aviation environment.
