Spot on Sluggums!!!! I think most at EK realize this. I'll say this again... AARis not doing this to help any crew. Not his M.O.. Me thinks there was a higher authority involved.

Are these meetings actually happening?
If they are AAR will have told he will conduct, not his idea or choice.
Lots of rumours , pilots thrive on rumours in the ME. Why, because they can't afford to do anything else. But remember everyone wants to come and live in Dubai!

Yup

First thing that needs to be changed is AAR
Then maybe, sincerity on behalf of the company could be considered.
30% pay raise is a minimum to bring pilots back to where they should be.
Credit for training including distant learning, and 380 home study. Both hours and pay. Credit for vacation and reserve days. Bidable Hard off days during reserve so simple things like Children's birthdays and parties can be planned. 12 days off a month. Minimum. Schedules out by the 15th. So you can plan for simple things like Children's birthday parties.
All lines built to 80 hours, everything else goes into open time. Those that WANT overtime get it. Trips not picked up in open go into call out pay. 2-3 ALT tickets per year if company breaks your vacation down into 4,5,6,7 unusable blocks. Just an Outsider looking in. IMHO These would ALL be non-negotiable. I am not lost on the irony of the last statement.

Agree on all the above 120.
Basings in Australia, Europe and North America will sort it all out. EK knows that, but still refuse.
I would stay for the rest of my career if I got offered a base away from the sand.

Absolutely. Home base. More rest. More rest. More rest. What were my kid's names again?

Basings/reverse rosters ain't gonna happen ...end of story.

The best to hope for would be flexible rostering options with extended days off, part time, and so on.
