Paying for a type rating is one thing. However, paying over and beyond the type rating course to sit in the right seat of the jet is another thing. According to the CAE program, an interview with Fly Dubai may be granted. However, they still need to meet the requirements set forth by the carrier.


Southwest Airlines, a US carrier, also requires new entrants to have a B-737 Type Rating before reporting for work. Like Ryanair, or EZjet, one goes through an assessment process. If they pass, then the applicants are sent off to a TRTO to get their 737 or Airbus ratings before they start their line training.


At least, Fly Dubai, is not a Lion Air Bottom Feeding operation.
