Hello, I am a foreign national military pilot and was wondering if there is a pathway to fly with BA?

Hi -
Unfortunately, we do not have a pathway specifically for foreign military.
You would need to look at the requirements for Direct Entry Pilot, particularly the x sectors x hours on a ZFTT aircraft. If you do not have the required ZFTT hours from your military background, you would need to do base training which we cannot provide at Mainline or EuroFlyer, so the best route would be an application to our CityFlyer campaign.
CityFlyer is currently closed to Direct Entry Pilots, but the Direct Entry Captain campaign is open if you have the hours for command. Otherwise, we recommend you keep an eye on the careers website for it re-opening.
