There is more to easyJet than UK bases...
What base has in your opinion the best quality of life overall?

Lots of base choices, lots of part time options and a great bunch of people to fly with. Oh and I think it's the amongst the best paid short haul gig going...
Yeah I saw they are hiring there all the time, which makes me wonder why haha. I'm OK with having a tight schedule, but not sure if long term you'd get tired of that operation.
I've had the worst jobs you can have out there (non-aviation related), so I know how lucky I am being able to fly for a living, no complaints at all. Just trying to figure out my next step.
I've always liked Easyjet. I lived for a couple of years in Edinburgh and I flew to Madrid often.
