Lets not forget that every day an EK583 departs from Dhaka and a FZ583 lands in Dhaka after a short while. it is shocking that in the same group of companies the same call sign has been carefully selected while flying in a unique corridor where the 2 ATC don't talk to each other and 2 different clearances are given simultaneously on 2 different frequencies.
And what drives that is greed by both companies, wherein the EK Commercial Department are hoping that - via the way the search engines work - they might pickup some FZ pax looking for 583 to Dhaka and likewise the FZ Commercial Department are playing the same game... and damn the consequences wrt flight safety and callsign confusion, just so long as they might get a few more bums on the seats within their respective aircraft. Loads of other airlines do this too... and it's bloody disgraceful !
