Regarding the subject matter I think it’s telling that the comments thus far are a little along the lines of “who cares” rather than getting to grips with the slipping levels of service.
Perhaps for some it’s easier to turn a blind eye and lament how things used to be, in any case I’m sure all of you are pleased not to be employed by Emirates.
What would you like us to do? You seem to be quite invested in one side of the debate.
None of these are new statements or allegations, all the regulars, and probably many less regular visitors, of the EK Forum in FT know that many of the staff are frustrated and want to leave. It's a free market, if they're unhappy they should leave, that's the only message EK is going to understand. There are no unions, there is no civil disobedience, as long as young attractive women (and men) wish to work for EK they're not going to change how they treat their staff.
The UAE is not the UK or Germany or even the US when it comes to labour relations, as much as some would like it to be. That's not something any of us can change. Also the entire world doesn't necessarily share the western view of what labour relations should be, but that's straying into OMNI/PR.
