Can anyone here please tell me how many hours the Jet2 crew flies on the different types?
How many hours will a 37 F/O have on a year and the same for a 57 F/O??

Thanks in advance :ok:

Depends on which base you are referring to, but in general I would have said that this year on the 737 F/O's would have done somewhere between 450 - 600 hours:ok: , and on the 757 maybe 500 - 650 hours:ooh:. I think that we are expecting it to increase for next year:\ .

That makes me a below average 737 first officer.
In so many ways.

It was a rough guess :uhoh: . Go on then, fill us in on how much you've done, and where you're based.

Leeds International Airstrip and 440. So you're pretty close!:}

Okay thank you guys. Am trying to figure out if it is a company that is worth aiming for, for me. I know a lot of the CC and they seems quit happy, but that can be very different for the FD.

Happy landings :)

Hi - where about are the the 757`s based ?. I know the first one(s) went to Leeds. Jet2īs homepage says a total of 5 now. Is it possible to commute and finally - my contract ends early Feb next year, will there be any need at that time for experienced 757 pilots. Thanks. Twin2040.

757 bases are LBA, MAN, BFS, STN. Not all have aircraft at present. Currently LBA and MAN have aircraft. There will be continual requirement for experienced 757 pilots.:ok:

You've just made me all moist BM.

A STN B757, I'll have to ask the ramp crew bus driver for the routes :ok:
