Working for Emirates you get ROSTERED to exeed. I have done Jakarta -Bangkok-Dubai in one go with no relief pilot in sight.(10.5hrs stick time). The flight plan they provide has a block time that is less than the flying time, but they use the block to work out flight and duty. Guys here have raised ASR's against themselves for falling asleep on the approach.
Bottom line, if bean counters run the organization and the pilot management are a bunch of yes men you are screwed!
