Shades. As part of the contract that I and many others signed, EK are liable for all utilities including cooking gas. Some years ago, arbitrarily, they introduced a cap as a very small number of people were abusing the system and some EK manager wanted to make a bonus. However, it was contractual to receive ALL utilities. Which they changed illegally. I wrote to Ed and told him no way not happening and also wrote to the muppets in EK Accommodation saying the same thing.
It isn't about the 400 shekels. It is about those in the Puzzle Palace once again trying to screw the pilots. The price of wholesale gas has dropped and yet DEWA continue with the fuel surcharge and profit binge on the back of exhausted staff.
Dubai Inc, will face some serious Financial problems trying to service debts and keep the locals happy and pay for 2020.
This is an attempt at the usual greed knowing full well that EK are not subject to UAE Labour Law and will try anything to get one over on the pilot populace.
How would you feel if the contract you signed in good faith wasn't honoured?
