Etihad Mates

Besides what one can find clicking on Serch engine here, please what could you add regarding:

1. recruitment/interview
2. terms and conditions for DECs.
3. accomodations, school allowances
4. living in Abu Dhabi

Please, just plain and unbiased information from insiders...

Cheers!

Strange!

It seems that our fellows at EY are not prone to share their thoughts with us! More than 200 whatchers and not a single reply!...
C'mon boys...

R EY pilots flying too much??

I believe we are quite a many pilots around the world who are interested of EY, unfortunately no EY guys gives us the info about the company?? EK guys instead writes plenty! I was selected to EK and turned them down after several tips and conversation with EK guys. Silly....no....
The only source for up to date info is from the guys inside. Wake up EY pilots and tell us "how goes it" at EY? T & Cīs, accomodations, scheduling etc..... THANKS!

I'm also wondering why EY guys so quiet and not sharing any info. There must be someone out there prepared to speak.

Hi Boys. If you are really interested, why don't you apply and if you are qualified and selected, ask the questions yourself.

EY Golden Boys

I told you, guys!
A very special bunch of boys!...

Unbelievable!
This is an example of a well kept secret: almost 1100 viewers and NOT A SINGLE HINT of useful info from insiders!
Maybe they are scared by a sort of a Big Brother monitoring every keyboard punch they make....

Maybe that tells you something about the quality of pilots who go there... I hear Malaysian was losing a lot of pilots to EY.

Abu Dhabi sounds pretty boring in relation to Dubai which will be the center of the action in the future. Too bad EK and QR are perceived so poorly on these boards - I am surprised anyone wants to work at these outfits.

I too am interested in learning more about EY - especially the positives given all of the negativity on these boards...

You are right, we are all losers. All you glider pilots and Charlie 172 Capts. keep applying. When you do that it makes us look better. And will eventually cause an increase in our pay. Like i said before, apply and if you are qualified, they will answer all your questions. If you don't like that, use the "search" feature and read away.

I apologise for Cayenne guys, he's been apppointed head VP for carrying the briefcase of the chief pilot and has no time to answer any of your unimpoprtant queries. Sort of titles Etihad gives it's loyal bunch particularly when everyone knows their internet access is being monitored and sussed.

As a whole Etihad pilots have aanswered your questions through their indicative silence.

Dear fullforward,

Maybe your EY mates are too busy flying and have no time to participate in this thread or they are too busy partying?!

Maybe you should apply,go for the interview and check it out yourself what's the conditions in Abu Dhabi.There's no point listening in to too many rumours,there's always two sides of the coin.Don't let it clouds your decision.

Thank you for your input, mate.

I miss your point on your statement: "As for those in EK and QR dream on - a st
ar airline has been borne!!".
Could you please elaborate more?

Check your PM.

Cheers

Cheers!
