With all respect to the low cost carriers apart from a quick command what long term career do they offer. BA can offer a mix of both long and short haul and the abliity to do this on various aircraft types.
What does one do when they get a quick command, say at less than 30 ?
Do you really expect to sit in the LHS for another 25-30 yrs busting a gut flying multi-sector days etc etc
Where and what do you do when you decide to leave the LCC ? Bottom of the seniority list again ?
