Lots of information available , do a search. If you have a choice its a
no brainer when it comes to future promotion.
Check out the web site here of one of the
Boeing guys it lists present pairings for both Airbus and Boeing Fleets
With respect to rosters I'm maxed out on hours, however the Boeing Boys are working a lot harder and they have pairings as you can see that are longer than the Bus Fleet.

"the good old days" are not here any more. Used to have a lot of time off. Some guys say they do, speaking for myself it is not like it used to be for a long time, definitely working harder.Used to have some life style on the Bus can not say that any more for the past 2 years.Really depends what you define as "lifestyle"..
Salary has not kept pace with inflation and cost of living, my base rate for comparison will differ from yours however I base it on the time I joined what my money brought me then back home. There is a mega difference now.
On the Airbus Fleet you will be Flying 3 different Aircraft the A332, the A343 and A345
for the same pay. Gets confusing at times and I wonder how the regulatory authorities were sold the concept of mixed fleet flying.

Wish I was not doing any, I do not have a choice.
servicability I have found it good all though have had more problems on the 340 s however this is really down to Airbus and not EK.
The Bus fleet used to have the pick of the destinations, however I would say the Boeing Fleet has a better choice, once again look at the
pairings here
Good luck if your allowed to make a choice
Going to Boeing other wise your going to be "
Stuck on the Bus"
