OTB,WIZZ. IAG the whole sector's down.

Anybody who qualifies to become a bus driver can qualify to fly a plane. Flying a modern plane which are mostly automated, is easier than driving a bus on busy roads. Pilots do not derserve such high salaries imo.

EasyJet launches aptitude test as female pilots targeted in new campaign.

The airline said it wanted to debunk misconceptions about the job after its research found 57% of people believe a university degree is required to become a pilot, and 80% think 20/20 vision is a necessity, when neither are needed to apply.

The new test is targeting women in a bid to encourage more to consider becoming a pilot.

EasyJet first officers can make nearly £100,000 a year. Captains at easyJet receive a basic yearly salary of around £115,000.

It should bounce as soon as the pilot issue is resolved.

Jarvis worked for TUI Europe's largest travel operator, for more than 17 years, starting in 2003 in a finance director role, according to his LinkedIn profile.

He then held various positions, eventually becoming CFO of tourism and CEO of the aviation division.

That experience running a combined travel and airline business has served Jarvis and current CEO Lundgren, another TUI alumni, well as they developed easyJet's profitable holidays business.

Results are good, it's just theCEO's retirement announcement IMO.

"We are now absolutely focused on another record summer which is expected to deliver strong FY24 earnings growth and are on track to achieve our medium term targets."

- On track to deliver our ambitious medium term target of >£1bn PBT.

They may keep a low profile about profits tomorrow due to the ongoing negotiations with the pilots for pay increases IMO.

EPS 69p and total dividend for the year 14p.

£700 million I think.

EasyJet said: "We are disappointed that the outcome of the ballot for the pilot pay deal narrowly fell short of the 50% required. We will be meeting with Balpa over the coming days to discuss next steps.”

Around 44% accepted the deal. They should be able to sort it after a little give and take IMO.

Easyjet pilots voted to reject a pay rise - which could lead to strike action.
