WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING...
With sustained, secure growth and an established fleet of over 100 B737’s, now is a great time to join Jet2 as a Captain on our B737 fleet.
We currently have direct entry Captain positions available at:
- London Stansted

- Bristol
Jet2 is the UK’s number one tour operator and a firm customer favourite. To achieve this, our UK bases are self-handled, reducing our reliance on third parties for ground operation services.
Each base is managed by a current line Captain supported by a dedicated crew development team, there to manage your professional and personal journey.
Our B737 regular schedule is almost entirely 2 sector days with full time Captains flying on average less than 750 hours each year.
Our in-house ATO has 2 UK based training centres, and Captains are eligible for over 20 secondary roles in our training, technical or pastoral teams.
If you would like to be considered to become a Jet2 Captain on our Boeing 737 fleet, you will need to meet the following criteria:
