Do not take these questions as negative. With all due respect, if EK is currently hiring pilots with 737NG experience (they are also evidently considering pilots with CRJ experience only), why go to FD if you could get hired by EK? Are sleeping at home every night and the lack of serious jet lag the big benefits of FD relative to EK? How different are the starting salaries/packages between EK and FD?
Has anyone on these boards considered both EK and FD and chosen FD? If so, how did you compare the two?
