1. Lifestyle is better in DXB for sure.
2. Accomodation is better in DXB, choice of buying property in DXB exists.
3. Training is hard in EK, more pressure in that department.
4. Concerned about shifting from Boeing to Airbus380 in terms of amount of effort required.
5. Rosters to be compared in terms of fatigue and jet lag and number of hours.
6. Progression to be considered.
7. I think QR will be same aircraft till command, EK might change the fleet depending on situation.
8. I have read QR is more money but my research doesn’t prove it, it’s a better basic salary at EK and if you fly 80 hours at both places, it’s same money.
9. I have been advised B787 is the future with 777x coming in.
10. I want my professional life to be sorted in terms of flying, fatigue, progression, training, sim checks and am planning to give 10 years in ME aleast.
11. Luke SkyToddler QR gives option to change accommodation if you do not like where you are put up initially as of now.
Regards
Request feedback on the same. How is blockade effecting things. Is it going to open soon. How will World Cup shape up the situation? Has EASA rules effected rosters in QR?
casablanca Point noted, QR as a place can be good for some depending on likings and lifestyle.
