1/3rd of approx 100 newbees are cadets(some MPL)
757 going for same reasons A300, old, harder to keep legal given regulatory changes, economies of scale for an all FBW fleet and we are going short haul schedule.....I read a post earlier about someone upset that we werent recruiting into luton and now we are. Obviously i don't know your personal circumstances but I would advise taking any base and then applying for your wanted base. IMHO most guys get where they want within couple of years. To add to this new joiners had to move to any base upon command but our cc has even got this changed so if you are settled you don't haveto move. Presently we are top heavy LTN and MAN so probably harder to get these upon starting. However as we have new bases we are being incentivised to move to these bases (a very nice wedge) to move. Knowing Monarch we will then be short in these previously busy bases....
