Hey lovetofly, I don't think it is a massive advantage, but I would assume if you have some flying experience with any quality airline it would be beneficial.. Qf are accepting interest for their A380's arriving soon so if you are flying EK's A380's then once again you would think that it would help. I'm ex EK crew and I hope it will help me!! I have heard that some ex crew have bypassed the recruitment day and gone straight to the panel interview.. But not a guarantee that's what happens
