I am sorry Paokara, when you said that Mid east airlines were causing jeopardy to US pilot jobs I thought you may have had some idea of how?
It would seem you are clueless.
I have checked the facts, and no they don't. Delta's 639 aircraft only 139 are wide bodies. Last year they carried almost half the number of international passengers that EK did. You have a huge country, with a massive market. You are lucky you can gain most of your flying domestically. That's where the money is. Let us help you. Its the least we could do.


World's largest airlines by international passengers, 000



1.Ryanair 86,370
2.easyJet 56,312
3.Lufthansa 48,244
4.Emirates 47,278
5.British Airways 35,364
6.Air France 31,682
7.Turkish Airlines 31,016
8.KLM 27,740
9.United Airlines 25,708
10.Delta Air Lines 24,243

Last year Delta flew 129 430 000 PAX. that's FREAKING HUGE. That is a whole lot of domestic flying. I hope we helped to add to that number.
