I am mostly a lurker here.... just watch what is going on... Just felt to put my 2 cents...
I am 2 years in EK on the small airbus fleet and safe to say to all those whiners out there that has been the best decision I have ever made!!
Life is great flying even on the airbus is sometimes tiresome but in no way compared to what you fly in a regional european carrier which destroy you!
Dont think twice of trying to get in... Good luck to all!
