Jet2.con rosters
I work for jet2.con and have not received a roster yet. Its due to go live on 23rd March. The company are saying its due to the fact that slots have not been allocated yet for the summer season.
Without being cynical I have not heard of any other companies producing late rosters due to late slots for the forth coming summer season.
I do wonder wether its more jet2.con spin and lies.

Q/ Previously, were rosters late?, is it the norm for them to be late?.
Slots - most are agreed at the October? Slot conference so done and dusted by now. My Company for example gave up asking for a Madrid slot this week, the only outstanding one (and MAD slots are as rare as LHR almost).
Likely to be some spin but refer to your answer to above first

I'm just about to join Jet2.com on the 73, I'm interested in any info you people may be able to give me with reference to:
What pay rise?
Is there an annual bid system?
What is a typical roster on the 73 like (BPL/MAN)?
What is the dual base policy?
What is time to command (hours required etc...)?
Do people stay at Jet2?
If given a base that isn't your number 1 choice, how long before you can ask for a base change to your preffered base?
Whom deals with basing?
Many thnaks, I probably have a whole lot more to ask, but just can't think at the moment, PM's are most welcome!
Cheers

Rads,
I would have, but jet2 seem to be pretty elusive with information!
It doesn't help that there are no threads on here with jet2 info. I had my interview with jet2 last October, and only got the start date last month, so a long time has lapsed, and questions have arrose in the meantime.
My basing questions are due to me not getting my number1 base option, and the rest just popped up whilst thinking!
Any useful information would be helpful.
Thanks

Yes, Thankyou Danny!
Perhaps I should have been more descriptive, I menat relevant threads to my questions, as I did a search and I didn't find the answers, hence me asking on this thread.
As the original thread suggests, rosters, basing policies, wages and more are changing, and as a new joiner I am interested in present and future plans, not what happened months and years ago!
As some know, Jet2 have a closed door site where most company issues are discussed and resloved, but for newbies waiting to join, we don't have access to this site.
So, if anyone has any uptodate info, it would be much appreciated
cheers

Tonk,
My right hand man with the rather good line in Mcvities Chocolate Hobnobs and lives near to his new basing Holmsley South, informed me this morning that he stiil awaits his.
Told him they'd be in his email box at 17.00 this afternoon ,as that is historically when it happens old boy!
No one to complain too you see when you don't like what you've been rostered, as erm, it's 5 O'clock, it's Friday and it's Crackerjack. Cabbages and Kings anyone. Now wheres that pencil.

I must admit to being one of the fatalities from the Jet2 move from Bournemouth, but I can say roster problems are the norm, base changes are more promised but never received (Capt Hayter is the person to contact) and do people stay at Jet2? Generally not. The MD is darn near impossible.

No 75 at Blackpool so you'll just be working out of Man. Expect 700ish hours a year 30ish per month during winter 80ish during summer. Don't believe all the stuff you read on here its a good place to work.
Enjoy

Management say that recruitment is frozen at the moment, due to the very recent news that they will only have 2 737s at Manchester next year. About 4 737 FOs will be moving to the 757, so sorry to let you know obsidianUK, but there may not be any recruitment from the pool.

ALL job offers are on hold until the MAN base pilots are either transferred to the 757 (5 Capt's and 3-4 F/O's) or move to another base. The companies priority, and rightly so, is to deal with its existing employees before any outside recruitment.
