It definately is permanant.

This recruitment drive was expected as

1) 50+ LHR EF Crew are being offered secondments to LHR WW
2) There is a initiatitive happening right now were existing LHR EF crew are being given the oppertunity to get promoted to Purser roles, thus creating the space for new recruits.

The competition is going to be fierce with a lot of internal candiates from areas such as LGW and indeed other areas (job was advertised last week for them) vying for the few spaces going at LHR. And by all accounts, due to the large number of expected applicants the pre application screening is going to be ruthless.

Unfortunately, those who applied to LGW a few months ago cannot reapply and I'm sure many people are kicking themselves now as it is well know that LHR is a goldmine in terms of salary for crew.

The big question now is should one hold out for LHR WW (temp or perm) basis or go with LHR EF which itself is an excellent job?
