richardthethird: That’s why TUI, BA , Emirates, Qatar , Jet2, Norwegian, have taken 100s of ex Ryanair pilots. Sciolist comes to mind. The airlines that have taken most of the Irish and UK pilots that I know are BA and TUI and Jet2.

Of course those three will let anyone fly their aircraft........

Does anyone have any Knowledge on the part time Winter contracts they’re currently offering. Would that be for a sustained period of time, or simply one/two years when they have balanced the books with the influx of TCX folks.

I see TUI now have a new DFO from TCX, hopefully he doesn’t bring in his best friend the Group Managing Director of Thomas Cook, would be such a tragic if TUI is led the same path TCX was by Flight Ops that have been in the press regarding their handling of pilot strike and pilot fatigue.

Seems that will not happen, rumour was running about a few weeks back, but got squashed pretty aggressively. MS will be an asset to all IMHO.

Hey all,
Just got the amail saying I’m in the talent pool:O
Does anyone know how many pilots are also in ? Do we know roughly how much time to be called ?

jonesy05 21st Jan 2020 09:30

Any insight into the selection process?

Well Used 4th Feb 2020 11:00

Flown with several FO's in the last few weeks that are fleeing Ryanair for Tui, several ready for command.

Didn't know Tui were so short. How many are you looking for?

Raph737 4th Feb 2020 15:16

The healthiest thing one can do is to leave Ryanair and never look back.

TommiW 7th Feb 2020 07:40

Have any DEP FO's from the recent Jan/Feb recruitment managed to get confirmed start dates this year or is it a case of filing the hold pool for 2021?

What a load of tripe. No good deed goes unpunished on social media. The truth is that BALPA actively sought to provide help, instruction and opportunities for Thomas Cook Pilots post the collapse of that fantastic airline. The TUI CC has acted to support the speculative acquisition of market share and talent. Time to Command was already down to 4.5 years, that's aside from the obvious practical issues in getting many new aircraft in the sky by May 2020. Taking the "fight" to Jet2 and easyJet

So let's stick to the up sides. The ex Thomas Cook Pilots are being added to the very bottom of the Date of Joining Seniority List and that was post an all TUI Pilot Bid. Current TUI Pilots are going to get more opportunities not less: 40+ command courses this winter alone. A weeks is a long time in UK Aviation, it was ever thus, so let's see how this ambitious expansion goes.

For my money I wish the new joiner Pilots a long a fruitful career within the travel giant TUI Group

Best regards - Captain Leo Nugent TUI CC / NEC

See the Chair of TUI CC has resigned. Interesting......

What would time to command be for someone joining now?

Does it vary much by base?

which bases do they have now in UK?

Time to command in TUI is more likely to be measured in decades as opposed to years for any new joiner starting now.
Morale is fairly low amongst FO’s at the moment with career progression set to continue at a snails pace.
IMO you’d be better off at any other UK airline in terms of time to command, including BA and Virgin.

BentleyTheDog 27th Oct 2022 12:20

Has anyone done the digital interview yet?

Whispering Giant 28th Oct 2022 08:56

I’ve been invited for a digital interview also. This must be a new part of the selection procedure as no one seems to have any information on it. So not sure what to expect.

Jetpak 28th Oct 2022 11:56

Has anyone been brave enough to do the digital interview yet? Would be interested to hear what it entails?

You got any info on salary?
Whats the FO base, what’s your yearly total gross?

Question comes up with 3 mins on timer to think about it. When the timer runs out it starts recording (video) and you have 2 mins to say your answer. I had only 3 questions in total. You get one “practice” question to record before the first real one, where you can play back the recording to see how awful you look and sound!

Best of luck.

What do they mean by part time in winter? Is that included in the salary advertised on PPJN?
