Hi @caneracarby i was wondering if you get to choose between a380 and 777 when u join the company

[benburns]

Hi Caner, thanks for this video comparing flying a 777 for Emirates or an A 380. It was interesting seeing how many more routes they have for the 777 than the A 380. With an A 380 holding so many passengers they must to fly to popular destinations to fill the plane each time.

[antjee]

do you count the layover days (off) as "free" days or are they separate? And what you didn't mention on the long A380 flights there is 4 pilots on board that alternate, like for example Dubai to LAX or Dubai to SYD, so it isn't as tiring even if night flight time is included.

[Legendaryrabbit-rjnt]

Also you forgot one more tĥing, emirates doesnt operate a380 to muscat they operate 777 on the muscat route 😅

[kimiisland]

I am going to become a pilot soon, and I would do ANYTHING to fly a A380. It is such a masterpiece of engineering and so much more iconic. There is no greater honor in my opinion. I would pick the A380 over any plane no matter what.

looking very tanned today ... just back from holiday ... or is this normal Houston sunshine ?!

[Slavking]

Very good and informative video! I think i will be preferring boeing over airbus when finished flight school.

[BlessingsIssah]

hi....may you please find us someone who can answer some of the questions we have about the Emirate flight training does one have to pay the whole fee upfront ? if not what happens if you have missed your payments.?

[Johnathanwillams]

Hello I was wondering if emirates is more likely to fire the A380 pilots then the B777 pilots aside from covid times

[santikitiky]

One technical question... Do First Officers Taxi the plane in the B777 fleet?

[MrDavid]

Thanks for the vid! Im currently evaluating my decision to move to emirates or await upgrade in my ULCC. So i have a few questions that i would be really thankfull if you could help me out with.

1. Is the upgrade time in emirates still 5-7 years?
2. Whats the general vibe in the flight deck? Are most captains relaxed and let you do your job or are they the typical boomer pilot that questions your every decision. You know which capatains im talking about 😅

3. Im currently doing an average of 4-5 red eyes a month. The majority of them are turnaround flights and are exhausting. How many red eyes where you doing a month and where they all direct flights? Did you have a crew rest room where you could sleep or something like that?

4. I understand that you started out in Turkish, if you could start over again would you have waited to get your command in Turkish then started life as an expat or would you stick to your decision of heading out as an FO.

Thanks a lot, youre really helping me out with these videos in making my decision, keep up the good work.

Thanks for this video, very informative! Do you know how long it would take to request a transfer from the 777 to 380 at EK? Currently Boeing rated and was hoping for a switch to Airbus but I doubt I’ll be eligible!

[JestonSun]

0:50 To be Accurate the 777-200lr is the smallest plane in Emirates Fleet.

[sandycrackgarage]

Can you make a video about how many times you've returned to Dubai 30L at 0700 with the sun in your eyes and the pilot next to you misses a radio call to App or Twr because they are asleep.

[deepalperera]

It will be good if you can do a video on the nationalities of EK pilots

[deepalperera]

Noticed you have never flown to Colombo . Although 777 is used on this route

[vuyopapiyana]

How is the job culture in Emirates? Are the pilots overworked and do you have many expats flying for emirates? Do these expats like it?

[sergiocantero]

Hey Caner hello, any chance you could give some tips on the knowledge test subject to prepare ? Cheers !
