Purely a result of the WSJ article, the GCAA has said The Airline that can not be named lays over, so must you, as you operating the pairing unlawfully. Coincides nicely with the withdrawal of the briefing timeline demonstrating the above.
Expect the OMA to change a long time in the future when it's blown over for loss of face.
For all the TC's bluster at the Annual Results, he knows he's broken a lot of the rules by playing fast and loose with safety and regulatory compliance. He also knows they have pissed off the staff so much they are talking to the papers and the other regulatory bodies. Reaction, too little, too late in my opinion from a management so arrogant they think they can run rough shod over the worlds norms.
The Chickens are coming home to roost, it's sad it had to go that far and the airline has been acting internally like its at the point of chapter 11

EK pilots ( childeren) complain about anything. Complain about long night turns change to a layover and still complaining. They also come up with some very entertaining theories about almost everything EK. ( CI400 omg the sky is falling)
Keep it up guys management love it.

The rumour about the NEW 15 and 17hr layover in SEZ really made me laugh. It's been that way for the last 5 years. Keep going guys and remember " never let the truth get in the way of a good story".

Actually the SEZ layover now 12:45 layover instead of 15 hours so technically as of May it was new. It is in fact the worst trip we have arriving at the hotel not before 8am and the wakeup call is 6pm. I kid you not!
and i don't really care why it's implemented.Join Date: Jul 2001

For 12.45hrs Science says stay awake as long as you can and sleep right up to wake up call.

That is a great theory if ones body clock wasn't so out of whack!
Honestly I couldn't tell you if I'm fatigued as have been feeling like crap for so long, on so many different time zones. Deep night out, day flight back, only one sleepish, then one day off, followed by day flight to night.

short flights long nights
An can I say alwayzinit, having not flown now for nearly 8 weeks, I did not realise how out of whack my body clock was. It is amazing how much better I feel.
It has made me realise that the whole 92 hours plus a month and other rostering issues a time bomb waiting to explode.
