I don't have a dog in this fight, however I do have an observation. If you know many pilots at Emirates who love it there, why don't you ask your questions of them, instead of getting into a pissing contest on this public forum.
No I do not work at Emirates, but have been asked twice in the last two months to attend a "selection programme". No where is utopia and the EK F/Os do have some very valid concerns, especially those who have had their upgrades delayed by the DEC folks. I guess going from a Jungle Jet to a triple 7 would seem like utopia. After about 6 months it is just an airplane.
