Charlie Hunter I would stay " Up North" if I were you.
White Knight Why would you imagine an EK Captain earning less than a Cathay F/O puts away more for a rainy day then the Cathay F/O??
Perhaps for the same reason you imagine that "the money in EK will get better I am sure??" You do a lot of imagining don't you ??
There is no evidence that EK have any intention of upping the payscales as you "imagine" and so long as people like you turn up in droves then there is no reason to do so.
Yes EK are expanding rapidly so for a short time Upgrades will be there but as EK goes real Long Haul and the ratio of F/O's to Captains increases, then soon, if it has not happened already then there are going to be some very long serving F/O's in EK in the years to come.
