Just cancelled my interview with EK. Wont apply again unless there is a major overhaul of EVERYTHING!!!
Life is too short and I have a 10 month old baby. She means more to me than any job and Im not prepared to be away from her and my wife all the time with min days off just to fly a 777.
Wish all the best to current and future EK pilots but there is just too much unhappiness out there from current and past pilots for all of this to be a coincidence.
EK like CX has serious problems stemming from the global financial crisis where they knew pilots were desperate for jobs but dont seem to have realised the tide has turned.
I know myself too well and will get angry and just walk out on them out of pure frustration...not what I need in my life.
Good luck to all future applicants though...hope it pays of for you
