Fareflyer, you said:
Just to inform all those who are moaning the real reason of the delay is that they are getting more DEC in the Airbus fleet.
Please can you say if this is an opinion or do you have more info/facts to corroborate the above said?
As I understand it EK is still getting DECs for the B777, not for the Airbus fleet.
The reason obviously would be to upgrade the FOs on the Airbus fleet, where there seems to be older guys than on the B777 fleet. The reasonable way to go is to hire more FOs to the Airbus fleet, including the A380s.
