Assuming we’re not being trolled, maybe this will help. I have 7 friends currently at Emirates anxiously waiting for an opportunity to leave Emirates for AAL, DAL, and UAL. I have NEVER heard anyone at AAL say they intend to leave their job for Emirates. If you’re seriously considering Kalitta over any of the network carriers, I would question your decision making process.
On the flip side I know of at least one AA pilot at Emirates who turned down the recall and chose to stay in the Middle East. $220k after tax, worldwide route network, nice hotels, quick upgrade to Group IV CA, first class travel, and living the expat life appeals to some people. Not everyone but some. AAL is a better job. Emirates might be a better experience for some. It’s more money in your pocket for the first 10 years but probably less money over the long term.
Funny how on this message board everyone gets so defensive and aggressive about who is the best airline, etc. Who cares? Figure out your goals in life and go to the airline that aligns with your goals.

Assuming you’re not some 30 year old eating Doritos in his mom’s basement all day letting the Xbox take a break - All three jobs are totally different - and one may appeal to you more than another. I have done military, 5 minutes at a regional, heavy jet VIP international charter, DoD contracts, and AA. All were different, all had/have ups or downs. AA is by far the easiest job I have ever had in my entire life, and at this point in life, that’s just fine.

Call Emirates.
Ask them their music listening policy for the cockpit via Bluetooth.
If they don't permit it, ask them for a Conditional Waiver of Policy letter to be added to your job offer so it can be aligned with your needs.
After that, you're good to go!

Does American ban using a headset to listen to music over Bluetooth while in cruise?

No the FAA does.
Sounds like Kalitta is out too.
Enjoy the sandbox.

Explicitly, clearly, unquestinably, yes...
I find it nearly unbelievable that you would ask... I love listening to music, have a music room at home, and always something new to listen to on a deadhead.
In flight, while in the cockpit, on duty?
Because you lead a stressful lifestyle?
Seriously?
They call it "work" and "duty" for a reason.
