EZY is positioned for expansion / contraction depending upon what happens to the global economy. The recently announced Airbus order allows us to go from the current 208 (?) airframes to circa 290 OR 160 by 2021. Expansion is muted at about 5% per year so there will of course be a requirement for new pilots.
Whether or not an unsuccessful application this year precludes future attempts I don't know.......watch this space.
