Danny please, I'm not your 'Buddy'.
I was merely trying to indicate that whilst you may feel certain carriers within Europe are not 'Worlds best practice', they are not the worst.
The intention of my post was to motivate those wishing to leave to research their alternatives with full understanding of shortfalls.
No-one likes to see colleagues jump from pan into fire.
I have worked throughout Europe and the Pacific and have many friends in the Middle and Far East.
Once you leave Europe and join the Expat roundabout your choices become fewer and limitations greater.
Good Luck to all.
