So you believe the additional cost of an integrated course, which is almost triple the cost of the modular route (including TR), is a viable risk to take to for the relationship between an FTO and airline to have a higher chance of securing a position?
Whether it is a
viable risk or not, is something to be decided by the buyer. However if your goal is low houred employment by a major airline offering a a cadet programme that makes this possible, it is the
only realistic chance of securing such a position.
If you are looking for clues, then take a look at the recent British Airways FPP (cadet) scheme. Who are they utilising for their source cadets? Are they the same FTO's that other major airlines use as integral partners, and resource for their cadets?
If the answer is yes, then it would appear you have stumbled on an advantage, albeit not a guarantee. However that advantage will have a price tag attached to it.
