I suspect that Point to Point (P2P) flying will be the go in the post COVID environment which will require a much larger number of smaller, long range aircraft such as A350, B787, A321XLR, etc compared to a smaller number of Hub based aircraft such as the A380, B747 & B777. This will obviously require a larger number of pilots so I expect airlines to commence employment of pilots soon after the international market opens up.
It would be smart for newly trained pilots to do everything they can to not only meet the minimum requirements for employment but to do everything possible to be accepted by the airline of their choice. Do your research though as I believe you can waste money on courses that have no value.
Good luck Petra.
