Easyjet New Recruitment Campaign
Yes you would pay up front for a TR. They’re a bit behind other airlines in terms of T’s and C’s now. If you’re on the Boeing take a look at Jet2 imo, or TUI

Do we think or know if Easyjet are getting the numbers applying who are willing to pay the 22k for the Type Rating? If they are struggling to attract the nunbers they need would they reconsider the requirement to self fund the type rating? As has been said compared to other airlines seems less attractive with the self funded TR and also lack of flight/sector pay......

Easyjet is an outlier in charging experienced recruits for the rating, and as the payments come out of net pay - gross it up for a captains 62% marginal rate of tax, and it's equivalent to a pay cut of £57,894!!!
They would be +1 captain, but they would not budge on deducting it from net, so I withdrew from the course.

nonsense. Perfectly possible to deduct a type rating from gross, just reduce the starting salary for non type rated by £10k a year for 2 years. HMRC would be none the wiser.
