I'm so excited about getting this new EFB !
Since I got it two weeks ago, I have been spending all my free time including layovers in Europe, exploring all the new functionalities, and finding some glitches which I'm currently busy gathering in a 35-page report which I will forward to all the involved departments. Looks like being a Test Pilot !

I believe EK deserve to reduce our layover allowance....after all, they did manage to get us 50% discount on the buffet's at all these wonderful airport hotels we now stay in!!

Working for Emirates feels like a warm bath, in fact its like a big family.
Sometimes they send flowers to my wife, because they know how hard it is for them to be alone just a few days a month.

I can't wait for Ramadan during the summer, but I also enjoy the 16 other public holidays that I get in Dubai each year.
