- Today's topic: Emirates Flight Attendants Fired Behind the Scenes [EXPLAINER]. Apart from the fact that Emirates Cabin Crew are being fired, Dubai is already quite an expensive city. Ranging from expensive internet and utilities to expensive groceries and eateries, Emirates Cabin Crew are receiving a 50% deducted basic salary with no flying pay. Can they afford Dubai? Can they live a normal life? Today we're discussing topics that News media outlets don't cover! We're talking about the little overlooked details that are affecting Emirates Cabin Crew the most:

Can we just stop and appreciate the amount of work and effort put into this video?? Like wow!!
Thaaanks! You just cannot imagine how hard it was to make! So many problems with the camera, then with the weather.. That's why I had to resort to this doodly type of video :D Glad you liked it!
@@WishCasting Sometimes these types of videos are much better than the usual ones. You indeed did an incredible job with this video.
It is very true. his videos are extremely special and well done.
100% effort... Thanks for this video...
@Mike Db Loy Machedo is good in collecting info, but for someone who has lived in the UAE for 4 decades, his knowledge of behind the scenes stuff or even general knowledge about the UAE is pretty low
I’m a pilot for a cargo airline, I feel horrible for the fellow employees, pilots and flight attendants, who have lost their jobs. Stay strong and know things will turn around again. God bless.
Thanks for your lovely comment!

I've flown Emirates four times and each time thought the in flight crew was very indifferent and did not appear happy. I can now understand. There is a serious morale problem in the company.
OMG, so true. flew Emirates for the first time, and i got the exact feeling 😯
I'm an Etihad crew and I really appreciate your channel. Lots of hard work and dedication in your vids. Keep it up! And for those who got redundant remember, when one door closes another one opens .. 😊
Hey Alex I have watched all your videos. They are also very helpful. Please make more videos.
Am also inspired by your videos and am soo honoured know am Cabin crew(Qatar Airways) after noting everything into details from your inspiring vlogs @Alex thanks soo much keep on droping more vlogs.
Thank you Alexander, I appreciate your comment a whole lot ;)
I’m so lucky to worked for Emirates during golden days. When it was so relax & stress free.
You're right! That was the best, really!
Hello dear wanna ask you something about Emirates can you reply me please
When was that?
@@hello-sx2bp it was in 2019 BC ( before Corona)
My heart goes out to all those poor people who have lost their jobs...I wish them well for their future.
The editing of the video is amazing!!👏🏻👏🏻 wow!
I’m 4 years in the company and lost my job 4 days ago. The way they are doing this is so inhuman... for me I had a clean file full of compliments ( because I actually LOVE my job) and just fail SEP in 2018... Is hard to accept there’s still people with final warnings here and I’m gone already... but what to do, everything happen for a reason, I keep saying that to myself everyday to don’t cry 😅
Sorry to hear that, but you're young and full of energy. There is future in you. This is not the end, it's your beginning.
That is so sad :-( So unfair :-( You work so hard and do everything for the company and the job, yet they treat their staff like this :-( By the way I love your channel. You should share your experience, thoughts, and emotions about the whole situation on your channel. When you are ready and want of course. I wish you the best!
Pray to Jesus 🙏. God has given many people new job and those who put God first will be chosen as his promise in Bible .You can find and watch many testimonies about God help people from this pandamic 🤗 God can and God will !!
LaPetiteInes95 Don’t worry. though I never failed my SEP.. after 7 years in the Airline and I was sick due to back problems, eventually I couldn’t take MC anymore and had to do Ground job as per the company ruling and HR in my country. Then what happen , I did pretty well on ground and eventually the company needed me to be on ground. issues came later when I had to pick a few good flight Attendant for Private Jet as the owner seems to have problems with one after the other. .. In short I was asked to discuss with the pilot in charged of that company , conclusion the pilot wanted me to do that one flight so I would know what they are looking for... cut story short the owners family and the guests liked me and they requested for me over and over again ... I ended from a Charter Flight Attendant to a Personal Flight Attendant and lasted for about ten years.. YES things do happen for a reason, have faith and do what is right.. All the best to you. ..
Sending you some strength and Love....
*#REMEMBER**: ALWAYS KEEP YOUR HEAD UP...*
I feel so lucky because Emirates never hire me. I applied Emirates many times before Pandemic. I think God want to save me from losing job. God want me to stay with current work. Thank you God!
Honestly you should still try for any airline. It’s the best experience in the world!
Amen!...me too . All things work together for good to them that love God Roman's 8 v28
Many airlines have fired people even Qatar and other airlines stop making it a big deal if Emirates fired people. Anyway all the times you tried maybe they saw you weren’t worthy working for them
That’s good for you that god made you stay in your current job but at the same time he made a lot of people quitting their jobs to enter Emirates and now they lost them. God must love you so much and hate the others!
@@lindaijang6144 amen, sister
Im brazilian, in my whole process from 600 candidates, only 14 of us got trough ( I was one of them). Its a real struggle, im fighting with my mental health everyday alone in Dubai.
stay strong!
Everyone goes thru rough times.
30yrs from now you will laugh at it.
Please feel free to contact me whenever you feel down ...no one is truly alone in dubai as long as you are willing to reach for someone... :) 💛
Mental health is no joke & i wont deny its the most depressing situation for the entire 🌎! I would really advice you to always share how you feel with the people around you & they surely will help you. Trust me im an introvert & i hate interaction with people & loves being alone & not sharing but now how the situation going on its forcing me to do opposite. So dont hesitate to discuss with your family at such crucial time
Hey take good care. Many people here would lend our ears and shoulders for you.
Unfortunately, everyone's situation is the same. Some employees, not cabin crew have their salaries reduced at 60%
As much as I appreciate what you are saying, there are millions of people without work and not even touching ANY kind of salary right now. God bless us all.
Absolutely!
@Shukuru Zote Dr Greger warned about a Coronavirus pandemic in 2008 already. But humanity didn't listen. If we don't change the way we live and eat, prepare for more frequent and severe pandemics in the future.
It’s not just Emirates, it’s global airline companies
Emirates are notorious for this. You only have a matter of months if not weeks to leave Dubai.
No. This is way worst. You are an imported employee. You are in a country that is above your means. Did you even watch the video?
@@Lewistaylr yeah alot of people left them before cov-19 as well..
With the exception of a major European airline. They had to release some of their flight attendants as well, but at least offering the firm opportunity to be re-hired when demand goes up!
Alternatively they offered part-time work or unpaid leave up to six months.
All this is the result of tough negotiations between the airline and the major flight attendant's union!
BTW: employees rights are much stronger here than in the UAE.
First thing
I'm so sorry for the negativity in the comments. It's just so bad after all your hard work, people who are not in the industry, clearly don't know a thing about it, throw a comment cuz it's free. I'm sorry on their behalf
Secondly, the amount of effort you put into making these videos is clearly visible. We appreciate & thank you so much for sharing all the knowledge.
Third, hoping the better times come sooner and everyone is happy and healthy. ✨❤️☮️
I was a Emirates crew and I am crying watching this video because this is absolutely true..
Life is difficult. Always be kind.
wow extremely good video!! I myself attended back February 2019 for an emirates cabin crew assessment day and know how hard it is to get through all those steps. Lucky that I haven't got the job back that time. I feel sorry for all those ppl and hoping for better times soon
This video is amazing, it really made me feel sorry for all those people who are constantly fighting for their dreams, I know how hard it is to get an airline job as I work for an airline as a pilot and it wasn’t easy and didn’t get a job for the first time, for all those people that didn’t stayed in the company never stop believing in yourselves, opportunities will ever come, sometimes life gets hard but it’s up to you to get up and you’ll see afterwards that is really worth it, if it’s really your dream to work on an airline you’ll get it just don’t stop fighting for it, everybody can do it, better times will come...
Better times will come, we are looking forward to it. Thanks for the good words!
The competition in Brazil IS INSANE. I went back to Brazil to do the interview I didn’t pass the 1 phase, I was so so nervous, and there had at least 300 people, but I heard one year before when Emirates opened again to new joiners it was 1.500 candidates in the open day. After 6 months I apply again but here in US, and OMG, only 60 people, it was waaaay better and even much easier, not so much pressure, I felt much less pressure and rush, and I got it to the assessment day. I always say for any Brazilian that can try in another country, do it! I really think we get much more time and attention to show our capacity, since the interviewer is not load of work with so many people at the same time to analyze.
Mayara Saldanha i would say dont work for emirates. False economy
Absolutely!! We said this on so many of our videos! It's almost unfair! All the best to all Brazilians out there! You guys are the strongest and bravest people out there! Truly
It did make me smile. Looking forward to better times. Thanks Mr. Orlando
People need to think carefully when they move to foreign countries and especially to countries where human rights have always been an issue (how can living in Dubai or Qatar be a dream for some people, I still wonder...). I am working in Asia and chose my country carefully and sadly things are happening so I am being cautious with future plans. There are zillions opportunities in the Middle East and in particular in the UAE and Qatar I could have applied for... but no, you will never see me in this part of the world because in situations when you need support, you will be abandoned like you never existed. You have no protection whatsoever and like mentioned in the video, your life can change drastically or dramatically...
One note though... The process for working in Emirates is hard but so is for any job when relocation is involved, competition is ferocious and tough. It is tough and I feel for the crew but hopefully people will consider what I wrote above more carefully in the future...
Good luck everyone
I think the reasons some people choose to work in the Middle East is because they don't care so much about how they are going to be treated there as long as they got jobs and earning more than they could in their home countries, then they are fine
@RCH PE so you think everyone who chose to work and live in the Middle East are not in their right minds/crazies? No, people who illegally drink alcohol in the Middle East aren't executed (death sentence), they are fined and imprisoned. And speaking of blasphemy, it is a bad thing, whether you are a Christian or a Muslim or whether you belong to any other religion. Don't disrespect others and their faiths just because their beliefs are different than yours. Mind your own business, respect other people cultures and their faiths, respect their laws and you'll be fine.
I really appreciated the clear explanation. The graphics were brilliant and added to what I was listening to rather than distracting from it. Great stuff.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks Pete!
Firstly I feel your pain , there are so many companies here & all over the world & economies that are struggling due to current Covid pandemic, appreciate you time here & all benefits and facilities you enjoyed here thankful to that , any company wants to minimize their damages hence some hard decisions had to be made stay positive move on to another job
What an amazing well thought through and produced video. It held my complete attention throughout. Well done for conveying so clearly the situation Emirates staff are presently in. And so many others.
So many dreams, hearts and aspirations shattered. Wishing all of them health and happiness from Ireland.☘
Things will get better .
#inittogether 🌍🛫
I have never clicked on a video faster. I have been looking forward to your thoughts about this. Thanks for this video!
Yay! Thank you! Love you Amelie!! :)
Well seems like no one is talking about the ground staff getting fired.
They are also working for emirates, wear the same hniform and are also getting a 50% salary deduction.their salary are way less and they never get any extra allowances to save
Yeah, my dad was also cut off recently by the company and he’s a mechanic
It was all started from us in the ground. Started with 25% reduction then a month later they terminate our contracts. It was just a 3 days process, I was devastated, all my dreams and plans were shuttered, need to sell some stuffs and investments that you dreamed having of. Now banks are running after me, i will probably go back home with empty hand. And i don't know how will i start, just trying to keep myself to the positive side of life. Keep safe everyone.
Ram TeeVee i completely understand ram. Things r not easy for the moment specially with ground staff salary is low. 50% salary deduction is really nothing .the saddest part goes for those who got terminated with no money, no job, no security. My friends are in the same situation. With family, lost the job, bank is after him, he lost his end of year service as well. I feel you.Keep safe Ram !hopefully u find something better 🤞🏼
@reality check, Your 100% right, we cannot forget ground staff. They are just as important as pilots and cabin crew. For these ground staff. I wish them the best for the future
who cares
People from Emirates holidays ,and other department are also fired on Thursday . .🥺.it's very sad my 6 years of service is going down the drain.your upload was spot on ..
Ameen sorry for losing your job..soo you mean they will not pay you your End of service money and you worked 6yrs?
Sorry for your loss of job.How do they decide who stays and who goes?....Why are they firing or laying people off,or they not planning to go back to normal schedule in the near future??
There were cases of suicides in Silicon Oasis with crew involved recently. People, you are still young and healthy. It's not worthy. Life goes on.
Thank you so much for all the information and efforts that you invest in this video. Very clear, logical and captivating delivery. It helps me so much in picturing the future as an Emirates cabin crew wannabe. The honesty, authenticity are absolutely precious because we can’t find these kind of genuine sharings from the perspective of an experienced staff easily elsewhere.
I loved it!
More of these please!!
This video is heartbreaking 💔
Thank you so much for ur efforts Orlando we appreciate
My pleasure!
Beautiful video. Same issue happened with me. I was in engineering line maintenance for the last 12 years. I was fired on a phone call. The worst thing is I was hired as an apprentice in house engineering trainee right after I dropped out of school and I put in that last 12 years here just to fired on a phone call
Very lucid and thorough video good job
Very good video and Best Wishes to ALL the wonderful Emirates Staff that have been let go, hopefully things get better and several can come back !!
I'm a pilot for FedEx, there is more work than we can handle. They are hiring pilots as if there is no tomorrow. The money is SWEET!
This is about commercial pilots, on freighter flights it will always be pilot demand because stuff needs to be moved everyday everywhere, unless is a total destruction of Earth by a comet or something similar.
Sad that FedEx only hires American pilots.
Your kinda stickin it in people's eye aren't ya?
@@RatedVideos it's a patriotic company, money goes and stay to the USA 💪
It is sad to hear what is happening with Emirates Airline, retrenching cabin crew and Pilots, I hope things will get better in the futur and Emirates to announce for those who are interested to re-join the company.
Thanks Orlando for all this details and clarifications it helps lot understanding the current situation.
Cheers.
Hocine.

Well said! And I'm glad you liked the video! Lots of love Yanni !
Fantastic Video... very sad indeed... Love the way you so respectfully described the situation whilst showing empathy and compassion. All the best to people who will have to reinvent their lives.
Well said! Let's all support the transition from having everything to having to start off from scratch.
Just wanna say thank you for making this video. I do have friends who lost their jobs as cabin crew, not just in EK but other airlines as well. These times are really difficult for everyone. The aviation industry will rise again & get better. I just hope that the people who lost their jobs will soon find their way.
You're welcome Ed! Our pleasure! Things will get better, we just hope mistakes don't get committed again and more protection is provided to the employees in such companies.
This video is like, the story of everyones life in aviation industry. It's devastating, unfinish projects back home, bank loans, shuttered dreams...
I agree, I’m a commercial helicopter pilot and don’t have work. Had the best years of my life flying all sorts of missions from offshore to charter and vip. But what do I have to show for it? Nothing! A heap of bank loans and unfinished projects. Only God knows what the future holds.
Been applying since 5 years and it was a life long dream! Now being sent home after 2 weeks of training.
If only Emirates had given us options to choose from.
Emirates may not value their employees but we value Emirates :(
#GroundStaff
Why value those who don't value you? That's a slave mentality. Don't be a slave.
I am so sorry for you. I tried to apply and I never made it.
Last time I applied on the 3rd January of this year and I'm happy I did not make it, because it would have been worse being in Dubai, thinking that my dream had come true and then seeing it vanished.
I hope you will be able to reapply or get the job again.
ItalianWanderluster Thank you 🙏❤️ Happy it didn’t work out for you because that feeling is awful .....
The information and quality of the video are impressive. One more thing that people might no keep in mind is the lack of communication from the company towards its employees. The way the have delivered the news - or lack of, actually- is also what has all the crew losing sleep at night. They have not come forward to their employees announcing what to expect. No one knows how many crew are expected to be fired, how long will this continue for, even the criteria that they are using to choose the ones that get redundant. Most of what you have said in the video, although accurate it is still rumours because the company has not made any official announcement to us other than they would fire crew. And even this was not informed to its employees first. The crew continuously have to find out about their employer actions through the news or rumours, because they don't communicate. It's psychological torture for many. It definitely needs to be managed in a better way.
This is so good explain is so true keep up the good work
I know so many people already made a comment that he has put a lot of effort in making this video. But I'd like to be added to that list. Also, in this pandemic, for sure you will be an effective teacher for online interactive classes that students need. Your visuals are easy to understand.
thank you! ☺️ You're super kind! Just tomorrow our first course is coming out! You guessed it right! 🙏☺️
I worked in Emirates for 7 years and I am just going through this whole redundancy procedure now, well done on the video and very well explained. I wish you all the best, stay positive and remember the show must go on. Stay safe
Many thanks! Good luck, we have you in our thoughts Alex!
Beautifully explained.Thanks .Bad times.Sad.
Sorry for all the crew who have been laid off. Wishing you the best and Excellent video.
Thank you very much!
Big love and appreciate the efforts really you opened my eyes about a lot of things. God bless you for this 🙏
Thanks for the wonderful comment and support! ☺️
@@WishCasting pleasure all the best. waiting always for your knowledge
Gone are the good days of being cabin crew. Sucks today and will only get worse. Shit pay!
They will always need cabin crew and pilots for safety/emergency evacuations. That’s the only reason they are there honestly
Why will it get worse?
Aviation in general is a tough industry to be in, I started flying myself in the late 90s and worked out quickly it's not the life I wanted to live. I've watched several friends (pilots) go through divorce, miss birthdays, Christmas with family, only to end up unemployed and while it used to be a very rewarding career financially that's definitely not so much the case any longer. I do hope everyone impacted gets through it, just remember things always get better!
This was a fantastic effort 👍
Thank you so much 😀
great video. more people need to see how "well" emirates is handling the layoff right now. Its absurd.
You deserve 1 million subscribers , thank u soo much for your info and hard work 💓💓 fan from morocco💕
Thank you so much 😀
Accurate explanation & great production 👌🏼
Thank u for ur channel!!! Everything is so clear❣️❣️❣️
Such a beautiful and touching video ( specially at the end when you were talking about your friends and your promotion video ) Orlando let’s hope 🤞🏽
speriamo veramente in bene anche perché ci sto investendo molto per andare.
One of the best explanations for the caption. Does great justice
Thank you very much Senapati! Where are you writing from if I may ask?
Good job I really appreciate your video 👌
Amazing effort was put into the video! In fact this is the main reason anyone should not apply into companies bigger than usual one plague or any crisis the bigger company will always get hit hard.
Sometimes we just have to appreciate that we still have a job. This is just temporary. You guys are not alone. Qr crew here and we are going thru the same thing. Let's just hope for the best.
Good job on this video 🌼
Thank you! Cheers!
Great vid.. and share.. cheers🙏
Thank you for the video
You're welcome!
Unfortunately also people that didn’t have any warnings or history of consistent sickness report are also going home. That’s in your managers hands, and there’s not criteria...
I am so sorry that your stint with Emirates ended so abruptly. Your vlogs are freaking outstanding!
Thank you so much!!
Very good video!!
Been following you for a while now☺️ hope this pandemic would be over😓
Fingers crossed!
For everyone life is hard now. This too shall pass. We should appreciate and be thankful that we are still surviving.
That’s right! We’ll do our best!
Great video. However I want to point out that Dubai or any Gulf city is only as expensive as you make it to be. You are not forced to have a pizza for $19, you can cook at home, or you can eat at cheap Indian places where you can have a whole meal for maybe 5 Dirhams. I think too many people fall on the debt trap or want to buy fancy stuff, there are plenty of people in the Gulf happily living on 2000 dhs a month and still able to send more than half of it back home
Touhid Anwar Excellent point!👍🏻
These cheap Indian places in Dubai must be well hidden. I could only seem to find burger and pizza joints, or expensive steakhouses last time I was there. In other gulf cities I didn’t have to venture too far to find them.
Touhid Anwar True, majority of the people coming from West and European countries spend a lot on expensive food, partying and save little to nothing and later they cry. Cabin crew at Emirates receive a lot of perks and their accomodation is paid.
Not everyone likes Indian food but there are other cheap options for food but they think they are too posh to sit with the labour class and eat there.
Thank for the amazing job that you do . Much respect 🙏
Much appreciated :)
Thank you so much for sharing Orlando! I believe the night is long that never finds the day. I will keep aiming to be a cabin crew for emirates !!
You can do it!
Two weeks to finish training college. Just started service training and now going back home. Not a nice feeling
I hope they take you back. Don't lose hope, please. Whatever happens, happens for a reason. Have faith in god
Feel sad for you . There is so many peoples like you lost jobs . All the best
Don't worry & Faith in god ..All the best for your future 👍🙏
So sorry to hear that! I also got made redundant after 6 years
If they accepted you once, they will take you again. I have matched a couple of Emirates newbies on Tinder, it's just so sad man, they had dreams and Hope's and were just starting to a new chapter. I believe I am a strong person, but I don't think I would have been able to handle this properly!
Man it's the saddest news Today I've Heard . After u told all these things i just realised all things that should be considered while entering Aviation
May God help all those one's who lost the job
Keep making video's. Ur Way of Guiding to be a Flight Attendant It's been amazing Keep This Work Going
Super appreciated comment! We will! Love your support! :)
Orlando @wishcasting
This is abusive & I would have left already!!
Excellent video. Very insightful. I feel for all those who lost their jobs and hope they'd find light at the end of the tunnel.
Amazing 🤩 I’m say hi from Colombia 🇨🇴 it was a pretty good video Wou!!!!!!
Thank you for this beautifully detailed video! I'm glad I got rejected during the open day in March, I feel so sorry fo all the cc who got laid off.
You are so welcome! We feel sorry too... :/
Unfortunately, not all of people with final warnings got fired , l know some of my colleagues still working, yet , others with expired caution letters got fired , so for what is even worse, it’s all messed up even more.Also of course not everyone with written warnings got fired, just randomly and they say it is all computer based so they put some parameters in the base and then it’s randomly chosen.
Great video, love it 👍👍👍
The Embrace soundtrack blended so well into the video and really helped transmit this sad and unfortunate reality check
For the well-being of all Emirates staff I think you under educated everyone on the issue of debt in the UAE. It’s important to cover the topic of debt for those who are losing jobs. Crew who have financial commitments with banks in the UAE and cannot meet bank obligations will find themselves in serious trouble due to UAE laws. What many countries would see as a civil matter such as an unpaid credit card is considered a criminal matter in the UAE. If you have any debt in the UAE it must be paid back before leaving or you’ll be stopped and detained at the airport. Once an employer has terminated you, all the authorities are alerted. I heard UAE authorities are checking with banks on expats with debts as they know people will be trying to abscond. During the 2008 crisis expats just left and negotiated with the banks safely from their home countries. Those who thought the most honorable thing was to work negotiations with the banks while still in the UAE found themselves in worst circumstances. The difference now is there aren’t flights so it’s not so easy to just get on a plane and leave. All the evidence is there from 2008. Sharing because it’s important to make sure you are well informed for your own safety. Also really surprised authorities are allowing you to post this level of private information on Emirates firing strategy. I wouldn’t highlight anything relating to private investments staff have been making as you’ll flag attention to focus on Emirates staff. I trust you are safely outside of the country. People have been jailed for far less. Be careful!!
Hi Terry! Good point. I purposely didn't cover it since I really don't know much about it.
Most information we provided is scattered and available on the news already, we just added our own relatable experience to it. There's very little information we added to what Dubai media outlets are already saying.
As far as I know, you get jailed only if your deposit check towards the bank (signed and given when opening the account or taking a loan, not sure here) gets bounced. You have 3 months to pay a bounce fine and the debt back. Meanwhile anyone can go home and settle from abroad (yes, if flights were made available).
You can negotiate fines and debts from abroad much better, by hiring lawyers and not having to spend your nights in jail.
I'm sure there's a lot of info out there.
We're fine, we resigned 2 years back. This video is to support the crew who are now being discontinued and need empathy as much as possible.
Thanks for the comment!
Let's hope aviation goes back to normal swiftly (it'll be hard for a while I know) and let's hope today's mistakes serve us a better future tomorrow!
WishCasting Appreciate your reply. My objective is not to scare crew, just educate so crew can do their own research and make decision best for themselves 👍🏻
Very well said. This video speaks the truth. I say this because I was once cabin crew for Emirates. The hard work and dedication of EK crew is magnificent! I've had the best years of my life in Emirates and became a stronger person. My heart goes out to all my friends and EK colleagues. It's normal to be scared. But all I can say is "COURAGE!". I am praying for the best outcome out of all this. Also, we should not forget the many hundred and thousands of expats in the Middle East who are starving (some even committing suicide - not reported, of course) at the moment without any support from the governments and their own embassies. 🙏🙏🙏
This is such a great video really balanced and comprehensive. Love the sound quality too! I am ex EK crew when we had a small amount of aircraft. I agree about the Supervisory roles even in the old days we had Pursers (as they were previously known) who we all knew what we were in for in the briefing room. Power hungry, bullies actually.. most of them were women surprisingly and in todays world would probably be sued with their behaviour. I have to say the majority of crew 99% were amazing and I am still friends with them over 20 years later.
you earned a new subscriber Man. you just show me reality
Thank you Jasim !
Wait! You have not been fired, you have been laid-off. You are laid-off when you are not at fault (i.e., staff reductions due to the particular economic situation) and therefore re-hirable, while you are being fired when you are "at fault" (stealing, absentee, etc.).
Clean slate brother. You are up for re-hiring with another airline as soon as the dust clears!
Spot on, thank you for clarifying that.
If there are salary reductions there should be parallel reductions in rents, utility payments, vat, etc.
Thanks for the great input on this video, Its indeed extremely unfortunate to see the aviation industry plunge to such depths, I on a personal front was never attracted to working in the Middle East for the simple reason that there is no representation to back you up should you falter, I guess I was fortunate to have options, Sadly not all have that choice..........lets hope all carriers world wide can soar the skies again and business gets back to usual.....good luck to all air crews worldwide for the future
Thank you for this video! It's incredible sad situation for everyone, who lost job, who kept it... With hope for the better future...
Well said!
I really sympathize with everyone who was fired from emirates airline but this pandemic has taught all of us to save our money and not spend recklessly because anything can l happen
This is true Michelle, I'm ship crew and I'm one of those who are always treating themselves and shopping like there's no tomorrow. I was about to go home on vacation when the lockdown started, I had a 5 day cruise planned to Mexico, 3 days in NYC and then flight home. Luckily cruise, flight to NYC and hotel was refunded, however the flight from JFK to DUR might money gone if SAA goes belly up. With no sign of when the industry will open up again in North America, the financial devastation that will follow in two/three months will be scary if there's another extension to the pause. However I'm lucky that I'll have a job after the pause without having to apply again, paying off my credit cards will be a pain but at least there's that security at the end of the day and no more "life is for the living" going to be saving like crazy now.
One day everything will be good again ... GREETINGS FROM TURKIS AIRLINES 🇹🇷
very good video!
Thank you very much!
much love brother
If someone struggles so hard to get in to emirates, they have great stamina and great ingenuity and should be proud of themselves for being able to reach their goals, not getting swallowed by pity or remorse, bit feeling able to conquer the world with the next dream. The world has so much to offer, just open your eyes.
I gueds Cabin Crew living at the “dorm-style apartments” from Emirates would share the cost of the internet.
Amazing video! Wow!! the selection process is very difficult here in Brazil ;( thanks for the video, wait to be able to be part of this team in the future 🥰
Good luck!
Love this channel ❤️
You're the best!
Airlines have been affected so much,i am a victim.After 4 months of reduced pay,i became jobless yesterday.
So sorry to hear that Double M... What happened? Laid off on what basis?
Unemployment in the US pays more than Emirates
yeah if us citizen you had to paid double tax... it so pointless i don't know why
@@campkira you will only pay double taxes if you made it. So it's a win
What a wonderful video🌺
Thank you 🤗
Great video
Wow. With these perks, emirates employees must have their time to put aside something. This layoffs have been happening in any industry. ALL industry. All have responsibilities, all have bills to pay. It is a matter of managing ones resources, I sincerely hope we survive this perilous times.
i saved in 7 years 130000 euros and went on vacations to bali,maldives , USA, zanzibar, seychelles, the philipines, thailand went home every 2 months for 7 years and just bought zara clothes not prada& gucci. But yes i took the metro many times and i didn;t think i m too good to cook and shop at carrefour. It is all about managing expenses. I m sorry for people who were less than 3 years in the company but i m not sorry for people that invested in ponzi schemes to get rich
Plenty of people love to stay in Dubai, thinking they live in a fairy tale. When you stop painting a pretty picture for yourself, you realise there is no reason wasting your life for the sake of your illusions
Aleksei Dmitriev Dubai is a sh1t hole.
Dubai PR wins
Honest and genuine video
Thank you Georgios!
Good luck for the future. You are amazing.
