Deep Pockets

If you're going to get a command on a 737 or A320 and if flying big jets with a fantastic route structure is what you want, then join Emirates. You'll get a command on a new 777 or 340 anyway sooner than you ever will in your present company. We have to look long term. Sure one might get a 737 command and that in itself isn't bad, but sometimes one has to give up a sure command for a better one down the road. What guarantee will you have that in 7 years, your present company is still operating. A lot of people don't know it, but EK will be a global airline and a force to be reckoned with. When it comes to banking on companies, I prefer to bank on the one with the deepest pockets and you can be assured that EK has very, very deep pockets. We are going to be here for a very...very long time.
