It seems there is a not insignificant number at EK that are exploring the job market. This has happened on numerous occasions before. Usually as result of some event/issue like increasing block hours, lack of profit share etc.

What seems different now is the unrest/dissatisfaction is more general and broad based with no single event as a trigger.

It seems more folks are feeling that the EK package is not providing enough to offset living away from home. Especially in Dubai where costs continue to significantly out pace the compensation.

Combine that with quality of life issues such as scheduling, vacation etc and the argument for staying becomes harder to make.

It is still two buckets but the s#*t one is filling quicker.
