Potential Airport Standby for EK Pilots
Rumour is that management are considering Airport Standby for pilots.
I won't name drop here but this was heard directly from a manager from another department (not flight ops) but closely related.
Please lets not let this happen!

I really hope that will not be true, Why do they look everywhere where they can in order to belittle us and make us look like kids?
Not to mention the lack of respect from our cabin crew lately!

This is another of those rumours that pops up every now and then. Has
been around at least 4-5 times. Wait till you see the whites of their eyes, THEN PANIC
Gravity will ALWAYS have control.

That's a good one; Sir Isaac Newton found that out a long time ago
And don't forget, EK uses a dictatorial model of management. If they decide they want us "standing-by" at the airport (CBC), they will determine that through an FCI. There will be no consultations with the pilot's group. See all the other crap imposed on us over the years (24- hours-rest ULRs, jump seat utilization, LIDO charts, to mention a few).
Viel Erfolg for those leaving

Wondered that myself, when I saw all the standby rooms while having a preview at the new CBC..the one where they have done their best to eliminate the last vestiges of esprit de corps by having no communal pilot facilities..
