Thinking about joining EK but only have another year or so before I have the required minimum hours to apply for DEC. Only problem is that I only have command experience on the NG and narrowbody Bus on shorthaul.
Setting aside the many arguments on whether or not this would be a good or bad thing, (I am sure there would be a steep learning curve in the beginning) I would like an honest and unbiased response to how likely it is that EK will take on a DEC with only the minimum requirements and shorthaul experience only? Guys inside EK must know the answer to this. If unlikely, I will need to have a good think about whether or not I wish to join as FO, and if so better to get in early rather than late if I need to sit in the RHS for a minimum of three years. What happened to the accelerated command programme?
