Fisrt of all
Thanks for responding to my post.

I try to keep all my options open.
Emirates seem attractive, but if called I will follow your advise and spend some time in Dubai with the family before making a decision.
Is there some F/O's with similar background to mine (from US regional)working at Emirates?
If so, did their experience at Emirates (international and heavy) helped them land better job elsewhere or was it a waste of time?
I am sorry that some of you are not happy at Emirates, I think that upgrade based on seniority list and a working agreement would fix a lot of your problems also I can tell you that here in the US there is now a real shortage of qualified and experienced pilots especially among regional as the major are hiring.
United should be hiring soon and I think that American should be next some time next year once they recall all the pilots on furlough.
Jobs at the majors are no longer what they used to be.
But it still does beat an office job.
If I come to Dubai I will be looking forward to seiing you guys.
best of luck
