EK - Time to command, for hopeful new joiners and us already in the crapper

Are they still telling you in the road shows and interviews that time to command is 3.5 years, max? Well, itīs always good to do some fact checking which quickly busts that slightly optimistic statement.

Fact: If you join today on the 777 there are about 1000 F/Os ahead of you waiting to move over to the left seat. For the 380 the number is about 400.

EK Statement: HR is working on a plan of 200 upgrades/year (unclear if only 777 or all fleets)
Fact: Current financial year approx 35 upgrades were made on the 777 (from recent meeting with management)

You do the math....
