Virgin Atlantic and easyJet cabin crew are being recruited by the NHS to help staff the new Nightingale field hospitals set up as part of the UK’s battle against coronavirus.
The airlines are asking staff who have not been working since the Covid-19 pandemic started to ground planes to consider helping at the new hospitals being built in London, Birmingham and Manchester – with other sites being considered.
It is a voluntary opportunity offered to those furloughed throughout April and May – therefore they will still be getting paid by the airlines, with support from the government.
