Look at their minimum req. I think at 4000 hrs, they might just look at your resume, I doubt they would be hiring anything less.

Theres a 20 yo national. I haven't looked but am surprised that 29 is the youngest current expat. There certainly have been lots younger including several sub 30 captains.

Wow sub 30 captains... thats nuts!!! How do you possibly log enough hours to get to captain before you turn 30?!? Does Emirates hire ex-military pilots?

Does Emirates look for any post secondary education? Or do they just look at flying experience. Thanks

I think they just look for flying experience, with post secondary education as extra points.
