Dear Slash

We all assumed you we're joking. There are no 380 DEC jobs at EK. There are no 330-340 DEC jobs at EK you will not be hired as a captain on the airbus. The last 330 DEC's are starting now. They interviewed mooooooonths ago. Now, if you want a 777 DEC job you will be placed somewhere in Meydan. Good news is you will save a lot on toilet paper. Given your post I would advise you read the instructions on the bum sprayer very carefully. Best of luck.

Thanks to some of you for the sincere replies.

I know most of you hate the airline, but please don't be rude to me, I am not joking nor I am arrogant.

I know they won't place me on the A340's or A330's cause they are being phased out.

So IF I join, I will be most prob. placed on the 777 as most of you have mentioned that DEC'S for A380 have been closed.

The Villas at Meydan heights, how many rooms does it have and what are the complaints you have there?

Have the Meydan South Villas been open?

I thought EK was hoping for 380 DEC from MAS?

KAL is now hiring 380 DECs. Perhaps you would be better suited there plus you'll get to meet lots of ex EK pilots in the interview process.

Thanks for the suggestion LHS Rain. Everything is now in the planning stages, I am happy with my job at the moment and its not like I just want to be type rated on the A380.

I assumed that as EK ordered so many planes and were in short of pilots, they would prefer someone flying an A340 for the A380.

But its up to the company, I had a friend in United flying the A320 and within 2 years they put him on a 747, so well anything can happen.

My options are open, but at the moment IF it happens, it will be in the middle east wether its EK or Qatar or the Airline we cannot name.
