What British Airways asks for
Since September 2026 we have recorded 7 British Airways pilot vacancies. 6 of them stated a minimum total flight time: a median of 3,000 hours, ranging from 500 to 4,000. One gave no figure, so it carries no hours badge below.
7 of those ads were clear about the type rating: 5 wanted it already held, 2 did not (not required, a plus only, or paid for by the operator). Without the type, start with the jobs with no type rating required.
