There are no more commands to be had.
I think this is an interesting time at EK. If you are joining now there may not be a command for you. Certainly on the 380 as they still need to take all the 330 Captains and FO's from there plus ALL the current FO's will still be in front of you. Command could easily be 15+ years away. On the 777, command time will be very far away also. However, if the current attrition rate continues on the 777 then it may be sooner. But if EK puts the pilot package where it should be +25% increase and more importantly change of rostering and credit hours then attrition may slow to a crawl. Remember cost of living goes up about 10% a year here that plus a 5% VAT means anything less then a 15% pay raise translates to a pay cut. Pay cuts for EK pilots have been going on for the past 8 years with no sign of that changing. You will read a lot of posters complaining about being able to survive on FO $ with a family. If you choose to go to EK it must be very seriously considered you may never see command at EK. IMHO
