If there was a 'like' button I would push it in agreement for Harry.
New Tomcat, to say that nobody has left Delta in the last 5 years is not really comparing apples with apples. We are mainly expats living abroad. The hard part is living that kind of life. If you compare Cathay Pacific to Emirates to Qatar to all other expat driven airlines you will probably find a higher turnover of expat pilots than say Delta, British airways, Qantas and so on.
The job of actually flying an aircraft at EK is enjoyable, in my opinion. The part about living in the Middle East is a challenge but that's part of living away from your country of origin and for some being away from their country of origin is a blessing. Being an expat is something I've done most of my life so this works for me and probably many others that don't contribute to this forum.
