It is almost imposible to defend EK. I definitely believe that EK pilots deserve a better package. But your comparison of what FD got and what EK is non-sense. Flydubai skippers got 12 AED extra per flt hr. EK skippers only got 8 AED extra per flt hr, plus 3% increment on the Basic Salary which is 40% higher than a senior FD skipper Basic Salary. And I will stop there because I do not want to justify EK. But when a pilot makes a bad statement, he makes all the pilots look bad too.
