Traditionally training has been on earlies, but going forward trainers are able to bid for late flights instead.
As said, Jet2 is all about hard work in the summer and quiet winters. Nothing will change anytime soon as it’s a holiday company. Trainers will work hard all year for obvious reasons, but you can apply for part time once in the company.
Hmm, that's not quite the position that was related to me, namely that applications for earlies had a very low approval rate, maybe ditto part time, which also is a significant pay cut.. So expect boring deep lates, and work days only limited by the fact that hours in the May-sept hit close on 100 hours. He didn't particularly like it there, which seems to tally with another guy here on pprune, who disliked it so much he left a 757 command to go EK FO.
