Even the pilots pay on some low-cost flights - News & Advice - Travel - The Independent
Pilots' unions and trainee pilots are warning that only the wealthiest, rather than the best, candidates will become pilots because growing numbers of airlines are having cadets "pay to fly".

RYR want to improve there image? you have got to be joking! they don't give 2 hoots about their image or their customers, and never have, all they care about is low fares and high sales, it's this very reason they are one of the worlds biggest and most successful airlines.
They are pretty much already running 500 hour LT scheme but retaining the cadets

I would not be suprised...if I were in O'leary's shoes, that's what I would do.
Why paying new pilots if they are willing to pay some hours ?
and passengers would not care about that. They will still buy tickets as long as it's cheap and they can go on holidays.
The passengers do not have to fight for T&Cs (it's not their job), but the pilots have to.
good luck.

Bit vague but it's a yes!

Honestly, u guys think I have any chance?
250TT
CPL ME IFR MCC + JOC on 737NG FFS
My flying skills are said to be above standard,
but i had 2 resits on my ATPL theory
I applied online yesterday but I fear being rejected just on basis of that online application which I filled in maybe a bit too fast.

Requirements
PrivatePilotDA40NG,
I have heard the requirements for Ryanair are around the same as they were for the easyJet when they recruited late in 2013.
The easyJet requirements were:
No full fail in CPL or IR (One partial allowed)
Minimum first time pass mark of 80% on at least 13 of the JAA/EASA ATPL theory exams
Maximum of either one JAA/EASA ATPL theory exam below 80% if a first time pass or one retake if the resit score is 80% or higher
MCC and JOC certificates
Last flight within six months
My feeling is, as long as your resit scores are above at least 85% you might be ok.
Best of luck with the application.
