I do enjoy the laughable Emirates arrogance that they’re more demanding than anyone else. You need the hours because of the way your training department, rostering and management operate, not because of what and where you fly.
There’s nothing special about flying the 777 nor operating into most/all of the EK destinations. Plenty of pilots with less than 1600TT operate into JFK, Moscow, DXB etc etc very safely and efficiently with no issues.
