Some good old fashioned mining the cost chain, maybe we could send all our maids to flight school to do 250 hours and then fly for $1500/month

Going Manual, this isn't a flying club, it is a serious international airline with a diverse and highly challenging scope of operation. Minimum experience levels and the cost of hiring professional experienced pilots is assessed against the benefits and risks of lowering experience requirements.

As stated earlier most Indian pilots I know in EK are former Captains and set a very high standard for which they are appropriately remunerated.

But be sure to send your thoughts to EK, I am sure they will value and reward your "visionary" solution, they might even offer you 15 of their "special" tickets as a reward
