Ihatemondays, I agree with you! It is an expensive training and I will take a bank loan to afford my training anyway. Eastern Europe countries are very cheap when you compare with England, Ireland, Baltic countries and Turkey. I think that Bartolini Air (Poland) could be a good choice. They state that their EASA 0-fATPL program can be completed in 18 months and its cost is 40.000 euro. Also, they mention that costs like accommodation, medicals, license issue fees etc. a student needs to budget an additional €5000 – €7000.
When I look at this picture it seems like a pretty good deal. However, I do not have any idea about weather conditions in Poland. What do you think, can it be a major obstacle? On the other hand, I was thinking that getting fATPL is not enough for an airline job. Also, I have to take Type Rating and its cost is about 30000-40000 euro as well.
