At all times Crewlink Ireland Limited have the right to relocate Cabin Crew Staff to any Ryanair European base/airport.

You have time allocated in the course plan for a base visit and this includes time to view accommodation. It will be the Trainee’s own responsibility to organise their accommodation at their new location.
