Need EK Information Please!

’m going for my second interview for EK in Dubai, and I’ll probably have to make a decision. I tried to post, but Pprune won’t publish it, please help.

-My Info:
- 29 years old, no wife, no kids
- American Eagle Employed 5 years (Upgrade less than 2)
- Hold a line, Avg 13 days off, 80+ hours, 40K/year
- Live in base, no commute
- AA flow sometime within next 10 years (so they say)

-My plan:
- Fly for EK 3-5 years, get life/career experience, make good money, see the world, live somewhere exotic. Come back to U.S. fly for a major after that.

- My concerns:
- Quality of life, crew treatment, time off, ability to get back to the states.

- I have heard lots of good about EK, but lately, looking at the forums, quite a lot of bad things. I’m not willing to kill myself for a type or money. I just need someone who has been there a while to give it to me straight. I appreciate your help. Thank you.
