EK rosters

[MagicCarpet]

CF,

Guys going to the 380 have either been here a while or joined with a fair amount of time on aircraft with a MTOW of 55 tonnes or more so they can meet the 380 FO hard hours requirements. (See my post under EK 30 ton rule) A lot of 330/340 FOs are faced with the conundrum of whether to go to the 380 because 2 years in the super would likely delay their upgrade on the 330, but after a few years in the right seat of the 330/340, the 380 rosters can be very tempting. For what it’s worth, EK did hire one direct entry 380 FO, who I believe flew the 380 at another airline.
