Accellerated is only used when there is no FO in the upgrade bracket. Now this might happen this year on the B777 (I do not know), however, as I mentioned there are 650 FOs in the company now, so the gaps that are happening on the 777 now will probably not happen again. So if you are joining now and counting on getting a accellerated command, I think you may be disapointed. If you have the hours for an accellerated command, I think you would be better off waiting the extra 6months and joining as a DEC on the greater salary than a FO to Capt at EK will get.
