Sorry, for all the 5 golden eggs people from all the world applies based in the ME are almost the same thing, little differences that at the end of the day will not define which one to choose. annoying pilots in the cockpit are everywhere, try not to be one of them, but worst than them, is someone trying to burn a company reputation in a internet forum. Go there, not good? Move on. Dont put things in the head of guys trying to get a nice job and that could think about not applying because of bullsht someone posts here. Maybe the company was not for you, but will be a huge advance for someone and someones family giving then some opportunities they would never had back home.
There it is again- the rooster 😂

When it comes to the GCAA regulation your are probably referring to the Flight time and Duty Limitations.

As it says in itself - it’s a LIMITATION! That’s the MAXIMUM one could potentially do on the occasional basis, but should not do over and over again.

One of the problems is, EK turned this Limitation into a target over the years and that is a massive problem in regards to fatigue and health issues.

In regards to the snoring and potential sleep apnea problem. I know three guys personally, who told their AME accidentally about the fact, they snore on the occasional basis. All of them ended up in a sleep lab and two of them had to pay out of their pockets for one of these apnea compressors.

There are implications one should be aware of picking up this job and yes the perception is definitely different, depending on where you come from…

Where I come from, would I do it again?! Nope
