EK to Turkish Airlines

Hearing some positive rumblings on life at THY.

Bumped into a Kiwi on the road who said life @ THY was quite pleasant and that Istanbul was a proper city.

11.000eu per month, AVG 70 hrs and Biz class home on any route destination.

Seems the trend towards KAL has turned its eye on Turkey. Two very senior trainers about to make the move.

Any other feedback?

They say "Grass is greener on the other side".You will find a lot of jealous Turkish Pilots,who feel like you have come to eat their cake.You will find out this on screening day.You think the Middle East is disorganized.Try them.Worse than the third World.Good luck

Says someone who will be in the top 40% of Delta seniority in 10 years (If offered a job that is), and currently flies a regional in the US.

The positive: No factoring in THY.

The negative: They don't have to since there is no 900 hr yearly limit.
