Firstly let me state that I am a personal friend of BOTH grieving families. I have been with them over the last 96 hours and lived this horror.
My point is EK can do nothing over the traffic, did someone really say driving the M25 was easy, surely not.
Yes- Dubai has grown into the “city that doesn’t care”, but what on earth can EK do about THAT. Basings ………… Laughable, it will never ever happen, besides will the whole company be based in their home country. No, at best it will be a few, my guess is less than 3% of the total pilot work force would be based, if ever it happened. I maintain basings to be highly unlikely though.
So what can we actually change? We know that management read these forums, lets give them something they can tangibly work with, none of this bleating over issues they have absolutely no control over.
For instance, YYZ's issues. Totally workable!!!!!!
My thoughts anyway.
