Getting out of EK
For those Americans or those millions more with American passports, green cards, right to work etc looking to get out of Emirates there are three US airlines that are going to hire this year or early next year.
JB, Air Tran and Delta are all ramping up hiring with the economy picking up. If you want to get out of the sand you should look into applying to those airlines. We all know you will have to start at the bottom of the list (no DECs allowed in the US) but your life will improve immensly as we all know.
With what Emirates has done to its employees I would guess that many of you will be applying.
Good luck to all of you.
