Just wandering here, how does flyingpilot know where most of the new recruits come from? That is, unless he sees them from his seat in Costa.

@Aiza
No I don't remember, I left EK 2012 and Dubai 2013. But I do remember the treatment of workers which started fighting for their rights. And the same thing would happen with pilots. Termination of employment, Visa cancelation within hours, Bank accounts and Creditcards frozen within a minute and security cheques bouncing. Worst case would be that the family is still in DXB

Edit: I had the "dubious honor" to bring a couple of those people back to their home country.

Hey flyingpilot89 and aiza:

If you can ask why people who complain about EK don't leave, I guess we can ask why people like you who think it's great don't join, and show how it's done? Lead by example? Hurry up and get hired and start a union drive!

Oh that's right...you couldn't qualify or pass the selection. So really, your comments are just silly envy of what you can't have.

Or, more likely just a simple troll whiling away the hours at Costa.

You'll have to try harder than that though. The "don't like it - leave" meme is coming true a little too often these days hahahah!

@aiza well said. these people are just good in talking as anonymous

@tangouniform i knew because few of my friend who went and join there told me this.

@goretex @qwerti owh sorry guys, english is not my 1st language so i do make some mistakes while typing.(nobody is perfect) Apologies for the error, it suppose to be "wondering" or "wonder" rather than the one you guys trolling here.

@nolimitholdem sorry man, EK is not the type of company i want. Not because of the company but the bad vibes the pilots are having. you guys must have your own brain to think how to get rid of this problems rather than asking us to come and lead u.

@exdubai u might find it as BS but sorry to say it is the fact. They are too scared that they might get the "warning letter" or worse case is get sacked if they voice out with their real identity.

For someone that claims to have no interest in EK, flying pilot seems to have an unhealthy interest in EK.

Aiza...Thank goodness you aren't interested! One less troll to worry about having to sit next to for hours at a time.

That was your best and most intelligent post yet! You are 100% correct! I'm on the Boeing, so you wouldn't be sitting next to a bus driver. Now go along and play with the other children.

@moseisley first get your sentence right bro. Guess your english is worse than mine. Hahahaha

@aiza they are not professional pilots. They are EK PILOTS. Who are only good at whining and complaining. I feel bad for them. Haha

@ratherbeskiing my name is Lee.You mind saying you're actual name and post in EK? (If u dare)

@sops I'm just interested to know why u guys whining so much like a girl who is having her pms( no offense to gals). All the other pilots in Middle East are not as bad as u guys. Except one which I'm not sure coz it's prohibited.

This message is hidden because flyingpilot89 is on your ignore list.
