Yeah i did interview on thursday. They probably decided on friday and sent the letters yesterday. Someone sadi they thought is was tuesday but most of us all heard end of the week.

I've got a BACX interview tommorow too but don't think i'd go since i'd prefer thomsonfly anyow.

Do you mean that most people heard by the end of last week or by the end of this week?

I along with others were told we'd here by the end of this week. One person said though that they'd heard a rumour that it would be today.

hey everybody

I was actually told that I would hear today but I haven't received a letter.

I guess I'm in the same boat as you boeing and we'll have to wait another day.

Congratulations on making it onto the Thomsonfly scheme Taugin.

boeingboeingboeing and Oscar Juliet, I am in the same boat as you, mail has arrived, but nothing from Britannia. A good friend of mine is also in the same position, post arrived but nothing from Britannia.

It is possible that the delay is caused by Royal Mail, but that would make four delays now.

Taugin, did it say in the letter what you are to do next? i.e. Do you need a Class 1 and if so are you in during Britannia's block booking? Do you also have to sign something and send it back, so they know you have accepted their offer and are not proceeding with BACX?

Thanks very much,

Niraj.

Hey Niraj,

With regard to the Class 1, they have made a block booking and you have to arrange a time on the 4th July. I've got one already though so won't need to do that.

We also have to be in Jerez on the 21st July and have an induction on that morning at Britannia to meet each other etc. Obviously the course starts on 25th so gives us time to settle in over there before the hard work begins

You have to email someone telling them you're taking the scheme and ring FTE for information on what to do next.

I hope you guys get to know soon, will be nice to put faces to names!

Best of luck,

Ian

It has gone very quiet hasn't it BoeingBoeingBoeing. I was hoping for a response from Matt since he is a forum regular. The fact that no one other than Taugin has heard anything either way leads me to think that Britannia have chosen to notify him first (for whatever reason that may be, possibly because he is due in for BACX tomorrow). I think it's doubtful so many letters would go astray, although I wouldn't put anything past Royal Mail.

At this stage I'd like not to think that all those who have been successful have already been notified, and that 9 out of 10 of them are not members of this forum (hence have not posted their successes). Or it is possible that many members of this forum have been successful and are busy sorting things out and have not yet had the chance to post.

They do say that the best things come to those who wait, although Taugin's situation clearly disproves that.

The wait continues ...

I think this is failry odd. I agree with Niraj, perhaps because i had BACX scheme tomorow they wanted to let me know earlier. I can't see the royal mail screwing up like this!

I wouldn't worry about it, you know soon enough.

If I am correct Taiguin, you are a wanted man - by both airlines, and Britannia got to you first!

Not a bad position to be in Taiguin if thats the case!!! By the way, who interviewed you? Was it the Geoff or the other chap? And how did you think it went? I am of course trying to form tenuous links and confirm a few things in my mind. Go on, indulge me!!
