Trickle then a pour
When the ME+EK first struck my interest, two years ago, I obviously headed to PPRUNE to get the dark side of EK (Let's be honest people only really go on here when f'd off). What I read didn't scare me off. I even went to visit friends working for EK in Dubai, all of them loved it... then!
Now I hear from every last one is "DON'T COME". I am gutted. I looked forward to the sand, sun and long hauling it. But, everything I hear now has turned me away. What annoys me the most is that if things do improve again, I can't trust that they will stay that way.
EK management you're getting your short term gain... but you're buggered when the pilot crunch comes!!!
