Emirates medical

[holopo]

Hi

Could someone pls tell me whats involved in the emirates medical and whether you have to do the medical in your own country or do they do it for you once you've arrived in dubai?

was wondering because some results take months to arrive so do you have to wait until you've got them before you can start training?

also if you have the tests done privately do emirates refund you the money?

thanks

Medicals are always at your own expense, EK give u a medical in DXB to compliment the one you undergo in your own country before being accepted.

They do ask for quite an extensive medical compared with some airlines, a lot of x-rays and it can be quite pricey.
