Yes as Jettesen says you do not have to pay for your training or for the luxury ( ) accommodation provided for trainees at the Luton Ibis hotel (think Fawlty Towers and Crossroads from the 1960's and you will get the general idea of what this hotel is like ) BUT all trainees are bonded for six months.

Basically this bonding means that if you leave easyJet within six months of joining the company, you will have to pay towards your training. I think (not 100% sure, perhaps a new to easyJet person can confirm?) that the bond is £600 and if you left the company in the first month, you pay £600, this bond decreases month by month, so once you have reached the end of your six month probation period, your bond has also expired and you can leave the company without paying anything towards your training.

Personally, considering how much it costs to train a new recruit, provide accommodation and breakfast, a bond of upto £600 is a very fair sum to charge IF YOU DECIDE TO LEAVE THE COMPANY WITHIN SIX MONTHS OF JOINING
