Pilot Training Programme
As part of their pledge to make pilot training more accessible to aspiring pilots, Jet2.com have launched “Jet2FlightPath”, their fully funded pathway to the Jet2.com Flightdeck.
This scheme will sponsor 60 exceptional candidates to complete their pilot training with one of three ATO’s all the way from zero flying hours to fully qualified Jet2.com Second Officer.
“Many people who have the specific skills and attributes to be an airline pilot find the cost of training to be a real barrier. It’s our belief and desire that this scheme will address this barrier and encourage more people, from all backgrounds, to become Commercial Airline Pilots and making the most of the fantastic opportunities available with such an exciting career.”
