Bus,
You seem to have taken my last post personally, I apologise for that. It was not intended to be a slur on anyone indivudually or collectively, but I did say "as I have been led to believe..." and that is the truth. I wont apologise for being fed information from this web-site or others.
I know pilots wifes who are actively pushing their husbands to apply to Emirates because they have been on vacation there and loved it. But they have absolutely no intention of looking for work on arrival, just continuing a vacation. Fine, I have no problem with that. But I have been LED TO BELIEVE that the accomodation provided by Emirates is indeed in a compound. If this is incorrect, great, that's what I want to hear. But hey, thats not an attack on anybodys lifestyle out there. I don't know anybody in Emirates or Cathay, that's why I'm posting on here.
Bus Canuck, I've re-read my last post again and again, and I can't see how it offended you so much to bother to make an attack on my personality like that. White Knight certainly isn't as sensitive as you are.
