Well you make some good points, i have a house already in UK so moving back is easy , family doesnt want to leave DXB.
Being on Airbus and no growth a command appears to be 4-5 years away.
In theory i could go to Ryanair and if not liking it go back to ek on 777 on a fast track and still get a command quicker than staying.
If i was single i would have no questions the deal with Ryanair is great without kids..............
