When the application is sent, how long does it take to get a response?

Yes I've heard similar things, let's hope there's some truth! I think flexi can work out fine in terms of pay but it's the delay of the repayment bond that would cause hassle.

Thank you and congratulations!

Awaiting route allocation as well, any one who has already recieved there route care to enlighten us with ideas on times between recieving route and possible start dates. I know it all depends on medical/finance etc but were you guys given a choice of start dates say 2 months in advance? I know during presentation they mentioned a winter 19 start so that roughly equates to a summer 18 training commencement.

At the end of my interview I asked about training start dates and was told that all courses up to June are full so would be after that.

easyJet have substantially reduced the numbers of cadets for 2018, simply due to a lack of training capacity with the takeover of Air berlin. So things will naturally be slowing down for a while with a backlog of cadets for 2018 knocking on into 2019.

I heard back today. Route 1 MPL. Anyone else heard yet?

[thisishomebrand]

Just got the email and I’ve been allocated Route 1.

Now to try and work out the finances.

[Michael249]

Congratulations! .may I ask. How long you had to wait after your last assessment date

[thisishomebrand]

It’s been a week since assessment day 2 and I found out last Friday I passed the L3 standard. So a fairly quick turnaround for me.

[sambobnix]

Congrats, I also got route 1! What are your thoughts on doing the Degree

Where did you get this from?

[BaronVonBarnstormer]

I already have a degree. I can see an advantage for someone who doesn't, as the opportunity for borrowing from student finance could be fairly sensible. However i already have student loan debt, so adding to that debt while i'm not working for the duration of the course isn't really a good option. Especially considering that my student loan will be accruing interest while i'm not working.

[Michael249]

Any ideas if L3 offers for route allocation come out once every month or a few times a month?

From the easyJet training captains I operate with.

From what I understand it is dependant on the airline and how quickly they approve things.

[ZFT]

It doesn't make sense as cadets in their initial year won't clash with ex Air Berlin crews training needs?
