RIA will start but they clearly need to get the right management into place first.

I don't think that any of that is true. I think that the original time line has gone out of the window. There are rumours out there, for example they'll buy flynas and turn that into RIA but unlikely, I think.

You two do seem to like talking a load of old muck. Of the 50 plus guys I know that went DEC widebody to EK and QR since 2012- every single one of them was a 737 Bug Smasher Captain. Granted the majority were Bug Smasher TREs and LTCS. Make no mistake - the transition with every one of them was seamless. All are still out there (ME). Most are trainers and one of them is the current TM 777 with EK having being made DSM a year after joining. Not bad for a bug smasher.
Never let the truth get in the way of a good story. All of that terribly complex polar stuff must be gone to your heads.

i came from TT and it was be far harder work than any other NB,WB in SH or LH ULH i ever flew.
TT is usual less automation and less protection etc. I many cases TT pilots are completely undervalued by some jet ego.
i have seen a few jet egos fail flying a TT when they realized that manual flight means manual and went overwhelmed when there was no FD to help or flaps speeds have to be memorized because they are not shown on a display. Sometimes I think some jet man have to protect their kingdom

I give them 3 months and things will change dramatically (20/10 roster and also narrow body experience counted). Without a commuting roster they will never find anybody.
It shows that whoever dealing with this isn’t a people’s person and it is highly likely that those who join first will be treated poorly.

They are just testing the waters , there is not enough information for a decision to move there . The fleet apparently is going to be 787/350 and none of these airplanes are available in big numbers for the next 2-3 years. Ek took 2 years to get back on 80% of their network with airplanes and crews already available. If you see through the shisha smoke nothing is happening anytime soon.
