- The cost of training at FTEJerez includes accommodation and meals;
- Their campus offers great free amenities, such as a gym, swimming pool, football and tennis courts, etc.
They impose exorbitant fees for the amenities you mentioned, which significantly drives up the cost of training. The school seems trapped in the 90s regarding student accommodation, facilities, and overall mindset, and its business model is clearly misaligned with ryanair’s. It’s no surprise the partnership was short-lived. There are many other good flight schools across Europe that offer high-standard training for way less money.
