This is what I've heard about EK

90+ hours per month and increasing with no change in salary/benefits.
Short layovers, pretty much staying on minimum rest/ flying back next day
4 years of RHS and still no hint of upgrading.

Can anyone confirm that?

Last year I heard it was about 8 years to LHS, but talking to Captains who have friends out in DXB I hear that LHS upgrades are going slowly.
So I wanted some clarification.
The sarcasm has been appreciated, I like a good laugh just as much as the next person but at the same time I'd much rather a lot of peoples opinions on what its really like in the sandpit.
It's a dream to work for EK, but if it sounds like what I am hearing is true maybe I'd be better off sticking where I am or looking for something else.
