The conditions in Europe are not good, all that Hans mentioned is true and compared to these terrible work conditions life at EK is still good. However let's not compare EK to those charter and low-cost operators like Ryan, LTU, Volare, Air Berlin etc... EK is supposed to be a major airline, a flag carrier. It cannot not be that it drifts down to a level of a cheap charter or low cost carrierer in terms of flight duty, hours, safety etc. 90-100 hrs is too much, everyone working as a pilot knows that, SAFETY WILL BE COMPROMISED BY FATIGUE!
