"Things an Emirates pilot is unlikely to say...."

[thegypsy]

So why say bravo?

[Capn Rex Havoc]

Yep Gypsy - thats what I meant. If every FO said No, then they would be forced to remove the bond as they would not get any captains.

never going to happen

Do you think for one minute that the 1500 hr Boy Wonders are going to pass on their upgrades? Not a chance in Hell.

It's sarcasm...perhaps lost over the internet. I agreed - of course everyone will complain but no one will actually turn down the upgrade due to the bond!

The Bond e Mail from Fleet is written with lots of style and respect

[SOPS]

Being bonded for my upgrade is a fair and well thought out policy....

[Bus Driver Man]

Who cares about a bond? I never want to leave anyway.

I did hold the door open for a lady in black at the mall as she had a baby trolley, and she smiled back and said thank you

[jockey69]

Things an Emirate pilot SHOULD be saying: "i am grateful i am getting to fly the super A380s/B777s on the world's leading airline EK's inter-national/continental routes so early in my career and i am getting paid a fat cheque to do that"

[felixthecat]

Jockey69 is so right, why didn't we see it before.

[SOPS]

Wasn't Costa closed yesterday?

[Talparc]

He definitely can replace the muppet DT on his way out. Who will screw the guys at Wizz air next.

And Tango, you work for ek do you? Your opinion is about as valid as his

i'll feel so much safer receiving food vouchers in outstations instead of having to carry around that wad of cash that i once received...

I'm so glad about the 5% salary increase we all got, to balance for the VAT same percentage of January ....

[desert witch]

Thanks for letting me land in the middle observer seat !! The view is so much better.
You can seat in the corner seat, and... oh, you are already taking a nap. I wonder why you should be so tired...

[givemewings]

Look at that, ALL my uniform pieces back within 24 hours as per the laundry contract and they're actually clean!


I wish I had more flying hours this month.

I just love to mingle with all the office dwellers who come down to use the ground floor Costa despite having a huge one on the 2nd floor. I didn't need that caffeine hit before my 3rd TA in a row anyway...


We should go somewhere other than Occidental or Danny Doolan's tonight


I love my new villa in Meydan it's so much better than the old one

[outboundjetsetter]

I love the fact that the uae banks charge me VAT on international visa transactions now!! Ill never use my foreign credit cards again as I love to pay unnecessary taxes

[Townie]

I enjoy using this outdated Microsoft Surface tablet so much that I am considering reporting mine broken beyond repair so that I can get a second one. Thanks Emirates, for making it possible to actually buy this dinosaur of technology for only 3035dhs. Bargain!!
