No question, the Indian bean counters at EK know exactly how many hull losses the airline could withstand and this is priced into the EK growth model. Their cost/benefit analysis of working their crews like slaves is endorsed and fully accounted for.
Their corporate counsel and
PR spin doctors are well rehearsed in exactly what they will say in the the worst case scenario and has a plan fully in place for damage control. It will be contained.
It's hard to say whether some 'leaked' crew rosters from flydubai will find traction in the greater media and cause any concern or changes.
One can only hope that, god forbid, if anything ever happened to an EK flight, so much ill will has been created between the airline and former employees that damning evidence would reign down like a **** storm all over management. Lord knows, crews employed there are powerless to effect change.......gut wrenching.
