It will be interesting if and when the results of the staff survey are published.

EK was an absolutely excellent job. The rosters were stable, days off were usable any many, overtime limit was fair for a long haul operator. The airline was profitable and shared those profits fairly among its employees.

The 92 hours pm have made "quality of life" a redundant phrase, rostering restrictions, principally max 6 then 5 off in a row appear purely spiteful.

As far as I can see we are now flying ULR with a short haul rostering pattern.

On a recent ULR trip all four of us were working on exit plans. Now I know talk is cheap but the plans were pretty detailed for just mind games.

From a personal point of view I honestly loved here 8 years ago, now, sadly I hate it.

EK could be the best airline job in the world but through bizarre management and greediness it is now NOT the place to come or stay.
