EK Trng Capt arrested at HQ

[EK Facts]

EK Road Show dates

I posted the above on the African Forum as I am sure you would all appreciate the FACTS prior to taking a position here as FO in DXB. If you are serious about your decision to relocate here, with your Family, may I suggest you have a long list of questions based on what you have read on the ME Forum, to pose to the Recruitment Team. Bombard them with the facts and ask them why they are struggling to fill courses in these difficult times. The ME Forum discusses what has happened to our contracts in particular, the last 2years. The arrest of the Trng Capt is one of many serious issues, that EK will try and conveniently sweep under the carpet. Recruitment Team are not Pilots. They will try and impress you all with shiny brochures and power-point presentations. Enjoy the Show. But you have been warned. My bet is they will not offer an honest explanation to your questions....

Some more facts then....from the EK website:
