CX, quick commands are long gone, here's why:
Last guy on at JQ was 420ish, last command in the low 200s.
So anyone who starts now needs 200 guys to get commands ( yes, there are 60-70 Q numbers in there, but my, are'nt they starting to flood over )
lets say 150-160 for arguments sake, at the moment, rumours aside there is 9 320s ( 45 commands ) and 15 787s ( 105 commands ), thats 150 commands give or take a few over the next 2-3 years.
Anything else is pure rumour and conjecture and I would advise against basing a career decision on them.
Add into the equation, X amount of DECs on the 787 ( depending on how many blue shirts are willing to come from Emirates ) and its not looking too good for a " quick " command.
Of course, its aviation, could all change tomorrow and have'nt taken into acct guys leaving.
