Before this descends into the usual drivel - It is very difficult, short of having saved enough beforehand to manage or borrowing from the bank/relatives if these are options depending on you individual circumstances. Unfortunately I've never heard of Ryanair/CAE or SAA having any involvement in helping any find the funds. The line training usually takes place at one base only after that when you're line checked the estimate is about 80% flying from home base and 20% away (varies from base to base), while away from home base you are payed an extra 20 euro/block hour which usually covers the accommodation/transport and few beers comfortably. Of course you first need to raise the requisite funds for the TR, which other than the above I can't offer much advice other than possible the HSBC Professional Studies loan, not a brilliant deal... but a deal.

Best of luck.
