I think you've hit the nail on the head. For most airlines back home in the UK the move wouldn't be worth it these days. It's quite a long way down the line for our plans anyway, but outside of BA and Virgin most of the UK airlines are barely worth looking at these days. EasyJet and Ryanair only hire 200 hire cadets now who will be willing to pay about $48k for a type rating.
