Since he has not used his connessions alot but been with EK for over 18 years! Trust me im just as puzzled as you guys thinking why dont he know what he is entitled to. But i guess it comes down to not travelling a lot.

Il Ask him about GroupWorld. I know they use 'Trip' which i think is on their intranet.

Anyway, login with staff ID and a PIN or something along those lines.

TRIPS is the staff travel system, which lives inside Groupworld. He needs to log into Groupworld and look up the Staff Travel Manual, which has the entitlements broken down by grade.

Emirates Staff discount on BA

Hello all,

Does anyone know if Emirates Staff get discounted tickets with BA?

My father inlaw works for Emirates, and his daughter (my wife) is on his list of concessions. I would like to know if she could use his concession and get discount on a flight with BA.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

You should probaby get your father in law to ask whoever handles staff travel requests.

Unlikely - interline discounted tickets at EK are usually restricted to staff only.

Not trying to be rude, but you already had a whole thread about this issue and the consensus was for your father in law to ask his boss. That's the best place for him to ask his questions. Not sure why this is such an issue because he must have a boss he can ask.
