You can use the jumpseat, but use and availability is quite restrictive.


By residence, a hotel address will suffice. By restrictive, I'm not sure what you mean.. I there's a spot, you can get on board.

Seriously? They're offloading type-rated people to BA, Tui etc at the moment!

Ah but when the extra aircraft come , how many will come back ?

I can’t see an over crew to under crew fairly rapidly and that’s when I think recruitment will resume

rudestuff 1st December 2025 11:07

No doubt. A fair few probably won't come back and they'll end up short of people again. When is anyone's guess.

restrictive in terms of commuting to work, you have to be there a day in advance if you are jumpseating.

Rt Hon Jim Hacker MP 19th February 2026 19:33

Recruitment open again for 767 and 777. 777 deliveries finally confirmed and 767 staying at 8 rather than reducing to 6.

Prob30Tempo TSRA 19th February 2026 19:38

How many 777 is it ? 4 still or more ?

Rt Hon Jim Hacker MP 20th February 2026 20:04

9 more

They are seconding pilots to BA and TUI because of delays in delivery of the 777s. Nobody has been offloaded.

Propellerhead 21st February 2026 06:56

Have those secondments actually happened?

Yes, a few.

Watchoutbelow888 22nd February 2026 07:36

From speaking to people who are on secondment with each of the companies, they are now finishing the time away and are called back to DHL.

Som have stayed at for example BA.

Roster
 
What’s the current roster like for the 767 and 777?

what are terms and conditions like?

rudestuff 22nd February 2026 10:09

The FO I spoke to in Jan said he's starting a secondment to Tui in March and was complaining that crews were lucky to be getting one or two sectors a month! I guess it depends on who you speak to...

Out of interest, what are some of the reasons secondees have stayed at BA?
