We currently have 18 x A321neo and the first 2 A321XLRs with bases in London Luton and London Gatwick. We plan to grow to 50 aircraft in the next 5 years or so. You can live 90 minutes away which covers London, Oxford, Cambridge, the Cotswolds and lots of other nice areas.
Please note: First Officers must be eligible to obtain an Ancestry Visa for the UK or Ireland and have 1500 hours multi crew time. Direct Entry Captains qualify for a UK Skilled Workers Visa and must have 2000 hours A320 PIC time.
Please see the links below for ancestry eligibility. https://www.gov.uk/ancestry-visa

We offer FAA to UK licence conversions. You require a UK medical and can then fly on your FAA A320 rating here in the UK for 12 months. In those 12 months you need to sit the UK CAA ATPL theory exams and we provide access to the online course below to help you with the study. You will be on a 5 on 4 off roster so will have plenty time to work through it. We can then get you a UK CAA licence issued.
