Regarding DECs, there are 148 commands available this training year. DEC will only be used where there is no internal upgrade to available and willing to fill the space. Hence Portugal normally attracts more DEC than internal... LGW and LTN are not massively undersubscribed and there is a reserve list of command ready FOs already.

I’m sure that’s all correct. However unless I’m mistaken easy were recruiting NTR DEC’s until pretty late in the year. They also probably knew (or at least a fairly accurate best guess) the number of commands needed in 2019. Seems strange to think that someone who passed in March last year who is still swimming while recruitment continued for at least 6 more months, could potentially sink in the pool. I can’t see that occurring surely.

Not to mention with the demise of A320 operating airlines like Small Planet there is now quite a glut of rated applicants available, and of course bottom feeders like Germania always crank out new ones with the required hours anyway.

Good evening, I can see that quite a few people have emailed me regarding info on Portugal however I have a mail inbox of 1 so i never see the other messages. Anyone shed light on that?
In answer to some questions I have seen, this year in Portugal we will have options for 5-4 and part time. There is no commuting roster although quite a few people commute for family and tax purposes.
The contract is good, a Captain in Portugal can typically gross anywhere between 150-160000 Euros per year excluding loyalty bonus. Whatever net you receive all comes down to where you live, whether you have children and if married, whether your wife/husband works.
Commuting to Spain can see a dramatic reduction in income tax. Paternity rights, sick pay and pension are excellent however to receive any pension in Portugal would mean you have to work and pay Social Security for a minimum of 15 years. At the moment the Pension pays out the equivalent of 70-80% of salary for the rest of your life although who knows for the future. I do apologise to anyone who has emailed and I haven´t responded but I am clueless as to how to get a bigger box.

Type rating courses filled up to the busy Summer season and the hold pool is probably full, with extensions given to those who’ve been swimming for a while. Courses to be resumed after Summer.

Both. They don’t seem to run TR Courses during peak Summer periods.
As for who who gets in and when. I guess it depends on their requirements, your base choices and notice period, and possibly your performance during the selection process? I know someone who got on a course ahead of me, despite getting in the pool after. He got lucky as they’d called him for a Berlin base and he asked to wait for Gatwick, which he was then offered. I’m hoping for a course in Sep/Oct this year. There will probably be a few leavers to BA over the next six months that may not have been catered for in their numbers, so things could change.
