Basings will not happen at EK. There I said it !
This is the one issue that even economics will not change. No manager at EK will ever accept the fact that pilots COULD be based elsewhere. Just use your imagination to figure out why.
Even if it did happen...... it will only be due to a lack of suitable applicants........... something which is not going to happen for an extended period of time. By extension, it would only benefit NEW JOINERS and not the rest of us.
My God, look at the mess in the financial markets, we are lucky to be here. ''the times they are a changin''
I find it amazing that some pilots are actually considering this to be a possibility in the foreseeable future. WOW !
