Bokken,
It is not a golden ticket, but surely with both the Boeing and the Airbus you have a significantly greater chance of being type rated on another company's aircraft.
Just a nicer position to be in.
Draft Dodger - as one of those saddled by huge training loans, I find it hard to put into words how much your kind support is appreciated. I sincerely hope eJ do a dramatic U-turn and re-shape themselves as a career airline - if they do I'm sure we'll all stay on and help build it into Europe's best. If not, I hope it lasts long enough to see you and your RHS Captain colleagues into retirement!
