Why don't you try the EK online infos sessions, they talk about all that stuff.

I suppose that's enough to comment of course, but their initial period would have been a blur of induction, classroom lessons, simulator training (the short Boeing course, as well as the A380 training in Frankfurt would have been pretty intense as it's a lot, in a short space of time) and line flying under supervision, which is also busy. So their answer might be: BUSY!

Things can obviously change but at the moment no it is Boeing and Airbus only due to the ability to do shorter training courses was what I was told

they are still hiring but the process is quite random and long, they will call you first if you have someone to call HR and get you out of the wait list, I did an Hirevue over a month ago and waiting for the next step even being current and type rated, for me is ok because EK is my last option and i am already in the process of a better option for me.

FZ EK

Hello guys,

I am Boeing 737 TR and thinking about FZ. My friend told me from FZ that if I go to FZ now later on I cannot join EK because possible ban. Is that true or what kind of ban is this? Anybody with any experiences. Because he said that a lot of FZ guys shortlisted in EK but as a result of 'ban' they don't get called.

I am just thinking if I go FZ and want ti switch in future and if not possible, it is not nice ti stuck.

FZ to EK

There is an agreement that you will not be accepted by EK if you are employed by FZ. Run by the same people, so no poaching.

Thank you for the answer. Is this something temporary or kind of law?

The first thing you should know about the Middle East is that nothing is temporary until something stops working for them. Rules change dramatically and often overnight. You are never kept in the loop so don’t expect as much.

To follow on from that, is there a similar ban to stop you going from FZ to EY?

Yes, some guys laid off by the company down the road from Dubai tried to join EK, I think one or two made it before others were stopped as the recruitment down there started again. Not a very happy place from what I’ve heard. Maybe others can shed more light

I have heard about this several times, but where is it stated? Is there a time period involved? E.g. a minimum service period you have to do for FZ before EK will consider you?

to make one thing clear for - in the UAE nothing must be written or stated anywhere, still it will be handled in a certain way.

if you want to change from FZ to EK you have to resign from FZ, be not employed there for a min of one year, thereafter your application will may be considered by EK.
FZ and EK have more or less the same bosses at the very very top, and the same owner.

it’s a word from them dripping down the lines and that’s it how it will be handled.

there is nothing you can do about it, you cannot go to anywhere and recall a book or a letter and you will get away with it.
just listen to what’s written here a 1000 times you will have no rights in this country, not even there is a paper saying anything different.
FZ and EK have a no pouching agreement internally. That’s it.

You can move from FlyDubai to Emirates. There is nothing written or otherwise to prevent this. There are loads of pilots who have made the jump across. The last 2 guys I flew with were both ex flyDubai. One had done 3 years there the other 5. Came straight to Emirates from there

I work for fz and I can tell you nothing is written with regards to no pouching agreement.

in fact in one of our chief pilot meetings, someone brought up this topic and it was denied by the managements saying that it’s never flydubai decision. taking in consideration individuals circumstances, and career preferences

Look at Air Canada and Jazz, the flow through is actually written in a mutual agreement but AC decided to stop the pouching momentarily otherwise Jazz would have to cancel many flights and that would hurt both of them. The same scenario goes for FZ and EK, FZ is doing some flights for EK, the ones that don't require the triple, if they keep pouching they will hurt themselves. Think about it like a gardening hose where the Gardner plays with the flow of water depending on his needs.
