As for this guys place on the seniority list, plenty of pilots at TCX, Flybe and now Tui UK would trade their number for a spot in a well run airline
If you wouldnt wager any pilot choosing BA over Jet2 then you are as delusional as I thought. I know plenty of guys that joined Jet2 and absolutely hate it- particularly in the summer. But their locked in to a northern base for family reasons. They can keep the variable rosters the RDOs, the endless name tags, the “Deputy Base Captains” (WTF is that) , the endless sandbagging/assessing in the sim at LBA. No thanks.
