I know a few guys who have taken it, all taking the allowance and allowing for hotel payments out of that.
Seems like they've made it like 'mainline' in that case then. You either live in company accommodation or you take the allowance and pay your way. I can't see this putting a dent in anyone's plans, at least the guys I know anyway. I may have missed something though!
Completely wrong - in April the edition 1 alluded to what you are saying .
Under edition 2 from M.E. on June 4th - specifically says allowance plus hotels in Dubai. Otherwise why would the email come last night apologizing for the change.
Whether or not it materially impacts the guys you know is not the point. It's the principle of reneging.
I can tell you the guys I know are properly pissed off...and rightly so.
