J2 definitely an option however depending on your seniority could be a bit of a pay and pension cut etc, you’ll probably work a lot harder in the summer but have a rest during the winter.
If I got captain in a few years at Jet2 it would be a v good pay rise for the next couple
of years . I believe basic is 135k with around 15k on top . So £150k
Senior FO is 95k basically after flying which is pretty good also
I just can’t stand the way BA operates especially after the last few years. I know it’s been tough for most airlines but it opened my eyes.
Most people I hear that have made the move are happy with it .

I think someone tried to send me a message but it won’t work yet as I’m new to pprune
