Does anyone have an update regarding their next recruitment drive etc.

All growth next year will be on 737 with a number of new airframes coming.

2x757 leaving the fleet end of summer, with some of the 757 crew being transferred onto the 737.

Jet2 held 2 open days at Donnington hall i would imagine to entice as many Type rated BMi baby crew over to jet2.

hope that helps

Yes it does, thank you.

Just out of interest when and where were the open days advertised?

Any truth that some flight deck are being put on unpaid leave this winter? And if so is it compulsory or voluntary?

Winter variation has been offered to those who want it. Several options, all voluntary. I believe it's the same as every winter.

The open days at Donnington were not advertised they were only open for the Bmi Baby crew.

30-40 are going for interviews at the airline that can't be named based in Abu Dhabi. Only about 8 management pilots have been taken on at Jet2.
Still be recruitment at Jet2 for you guys as there's big expansion for next year!

It's nice to hear some potentially positive news.

Scratchthesky,

Where did you come across this information, I have not heard of 757 crews being transfered to the 737?

Some of the B757 FO's up for Command have been asked if they would accept a B737 transfer but only if they've flown it before.

those with 737 ratings have also been asked if they would move from the 757 back onto the 737, both seats

Wonder how many takers they will have?
