Somebody a few posts ago wanted to know what the Delta rest patterns are etc., flying into and out of Dubai.
The rest facility is the standard Boeing one, behind the cockpit with chairs and two bunks upstairs. The overnight is anywhere from three days to six days. Part of that is due to the fact they don't do the trip daily.
The guys I talk to enjoy the layover for a few days-but six?
Caution: Thread creep ahead. Any word on who will fly your 747-8fs. Here at "Giant" we hear all sorts of rumors, EK pilots will, we will. Changes weekly. Anyone know.
