Yes, and the beauty of it is, you will only need one class!

I assume you mean a quick course ....
The quickest route into being an airline pilot is to take an ab initio course, which is designed to get you from zero flying experience to CPL/IR with frozen ATPL. That will probably involve full time study/flying for 1-2 years and cost anything up to £60,000.
You could do this in the UK, or you could go to the USA. The USA will be cheaper but you're a long way from home (assuming you're from the UK) and there's no way of evaluating the flying school until you're there. Also, its a good idea to do the first part of your training (the PPL) in the UK, as you need to get used to British flying conditions at the start of your training.
If you purchase the Pilot of Flyer magazines, there are plenty of adverts in the back pages for flight training organisations. Before you shell thousands, you need to check whether you really like flying by taking a few lessons. Also, you need to obtain a Class 1 Medical before you commit large sums of money into pilot training.

Don`t take a crash course take a flying course - you`ll give an employer more confidence that way LOL.

to take flying lessons is the best start and then work on you BS, it takes time and experience to become a pilot.
