Emirates F/O vs. Flydubai CPT.
I would like to ask if anyone has had the option to choose between
Emirates F/O and Flydubai Captains positions, and what the outcome of
that choice was.
If one was contemplating the move to Dubai for max. 3 years
(the wife´s initial response to a possible move), would it not be
better to go for the CPT. position at Flydubai...?
Or, if it would be for a longer time, could it not be considered a better option to go for Emirates.
I have not yet applied for any of the said positions.
I do work for a European Charter (leisure) Airline, and I have been operating
as Captain on B737NG´s for a number of years. So I do meet the requirements for both positions.
(I realise that many of you will tell me to stay put, but that does not answer my questions)
Also, would it not be possible to have some balanced comments on life in Dubai, from pilots who actually enjoy living there,
as I have read a lot of the negative comment, and as valid as they are, it would be nice to actually have some positive comments,
to get an idea about a move to Dubai.
Best regards.
