There are rumours going around about if and how many of the cadets placed at easy this year will be kept on. Personally I think they will keep some, but I really have no idea how many.
I would personally say it's more likely to be zero - based on the company having stated they are not having any permanent recruitment this year and the fact that there are hardly any command upgrades (and consequently no vacancies freed up for new permanent F/Os.) If they do require any crew in the winter in the short term, I'd suggest they're likely to be on FlexiCrew terms and if they do, it won't be many at all. Just my 2p.
