as previously stated, airlinese dont require you to have a degree to work in an airline. however, i dont have the money to go and put myself through flight school. so, i intend to finish university, whilst working in an airline during my summer holidays, so i can build some hours. once i have my degree finished i will hopefully get into a job i like (of course airline related), and pay for myself to become i pilot. i've wanted to be a pilot all my life, but the reality hit me that i dont have the cash! i bit the bullet, and started university. i still want to be a pilot, but ive learnt through my degree i can still incorporate some elements of the aviation industry; eg part of my course is studying sales and marketing, so i can look at how companies like ryanair and easyjet set about marketing and achieving sales! it aint flying, but its very interesting!
