New uniform

Better than the old one for sure....
They never had hat, not only a pain in the XXX to carry, but most important, belonging to the past where uniforms had a real meaning

Well cabin crew one is fine by my taste, not convinced by the pilot one to be honest. But who am I to judge? 😜

Do all the pilots have to rock the "porn-stasch" like the video? Very "Harry Reams" I must say!

Love the cabin crew uniform for the gents, just wondering if they get a company issued pocket protector or do they provide their own?

Very 70's in any case....very!

Is it even worth continuing my flight training if the future is pilots with no hats!? Thankfully my sponsoring airline have them, as it should be.

No merger! Just a greater synergy of route structure. Good for EK pilot bad for FZ, more short TAs for FZ and the most of the layovers go to EK. Overall reduction for both initially.

Not really, it depends on where you fly, what you fly and what you want out of your life. The money we get for what we do is not bad at all. In this region at least.

The moustache is part of the new branding campaign. Every pilot has three months to grow one from the date of uniform issue. If you fail you're out.
