If we take it from the perspective of "I want to work for easyJet" which is somewhat accurate, would you say CAE is the wiser choice regardless of whether FTE provided better training?
If this is the case then CAE is your only option. EasyJets future recruitment of low houred cadets will only come through CAE, this has been confirmed by the company. EasyJet rely heavily on the CAE for sims and you’ll see the EasyJet presence there when you visit. A deal was agreed between both parties that CAE will provide cadets to EasyJet for the foreseeable future. Controversially the EasyJet MPL scheme is probably your best/only chance to get into the RHS and the course provides the structure your family seemingly need. However, be aware of the risks and be prepared to pay extortionate sums of money for the privilege, particularly if it all goes wrong. If money isn’t a priority then that’s the route to go.
Re EASA/U.K. and low houred U.K. jobs: be aware you only have two real options in the U.K. presently and one of those requires an easa licence (Ryanair), they do not accept U.K. licences. The only other option would be Wizz and they require a U.K. licence.
