EK resignations on the up again...
I'm hearing rumours that since the wonderful pay review that resignations have shot up. That helped along by GCAA releasing letters so that people have been able to provide then to requesting airlines.
|
Does the increase in pilots leaving EK surprise anyone? Who is going to stay at this dump with so many better options available? It’s not like we can’t more money and work less hours in a civilized country. |
Fear not! Apparently everything will be back to normal by the Autumn (1.40 onwards)
|
Can't wait to add mine. Counting the days....

Out of interest, it seems like a lot of people (flight deck crew) don't like EK, and the way they look after crew. Low pay etc. Would this have ANY adverse affect on safety? I ask as an aviation enthusiast, but also, someone who will be travelling on EK in December/January.

Everyone does their best, but the experience levels have and continue to drop. Very experienced people leaving being replaced with very inexperienced. Draw from that what you wish.

I think it’s reasonable to expect a fall in the number of new joiners following the removal of the accommodation allowance. It’s a deal breaker for many. |
For every 1 that resigns there is another that " retires" and or medical . Great spinning of stats! Just look at the totals at year end . |
Hey Everyone - So, I'm seeing lots of comments suggesting there are better places than EK. Which airline would you suggest a Canadian airline pilot go to overseas in order to make good money, while living an acceptable lifestyle?

Has this particular change to the package occurred before?

Well in terms of the company allowance: it changes from time to time. They have many empty houses but afaik not many apartments - that’s the rumor. Salary and expected upgrade time are not that bad here if you are a FO. Dubai is at all not a ****ty place - especially if you make friends quickly initially and then start to select your new core friends. Most of the times it’s not the place it is yourself,your believes kind of thinking which decrease your happiness. More people are leaving than joining. Some very old and senior Cpt said that they might adjust salary again. Since this has happened in the past it must of course not necessarily happen in future again.. |
