Narrow Runway
1. I’m not a shareholder in CTC or EZY PLC.
2. I wouldn’t describe it as a profession now, but that’s neither here nor there.
3. Bankruptcy is one of the few things you don’t need to worry about at EZY. Just most airlines.
4. If you must leave, your time at EZY would qualify for mainline airlines.
5. You’re getting a 320 TR which has to be the best out there, not a Saab TR.
6. People are having to move in lots of Mon-Fri jobs, with a 2 day weekend leaving no possibility of seeing friends & family.
I fully accept it’s not ideal (what is?), but if you want to fly for a living it’s the best out there. I’d rather spend £85k on CTC than £45k instructing and hoping.
The money’s actually very good for any first job (which is what it is), but zero hour contracts can leave you in a huge mess with loans to service hence one could argue that only the well off need apply.
