Heard at a watering hole that EK plans to aggressively start re connecting with prospective DEC's (777's and 380's ) so as to set the tone for a first/second quarter 2012 DEC hiring spree. Heard numbers needed would be in the vicinity of 60 DEC's for the 777's and close to 45 for the 380's.
I can't even begin to imagine the turmoil that would ensue within the EK ranks if this was even half true.
But this source rarely is far from the truth. So I reckon its gonna be a wait and watch game.
And boy, will it be a game changer!
