Similar story with the power bank that EK provides. You can buy one in the UAE for around a third of what the company charges for a replacement.
i flew with a FO recently and he was getting worried about getting charged for a cracked screen. Told him to take it down to Satwa and spend a few dirhams to get it fixed. The company must think we are a sandwich short of a picnic, if they expect us to accept such exorbitant charges for such a terrible and dated device.
