Iver, I do agree with what you in a way. But all that 'seeing the world' and flying big planes comes at a price: saying bye-bye to a stable life in your home country. That is a high price to pay for a lot of people. Like you say, a career in EK opens up other EXPAT opportunities. But how many people honestly want to be an expat contractor for their whole flying career?

Wizofoz, you have a family that will move with you around the world, and that is fine. In that case EK might be a dream job. But surely there is some sacrifice? What advantages does your wife have in Dubai that she did not have in your home country? And your children? Honest question
