This is how it works. You get whatever the cost is of a preselected Brekkie, Lunch and Dinner in the hotel. However, if the hotel offers a discount to crew i.e. 50% off all restaurants, then that discount is also applied to your per diems. Easy....................

Hey Uplock,
That was a great link but is it up to date? It looks a little bit on the short side to me since this is Emirates we are talking bout. So on average in US dollars how much is the meal allowance ( total ) per day in USA, Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia?

Don't count on per diem as a bonus to the overall package. It will really only cover food and beer with a couple of bucks left over. If you plan on 'noodling'' in your room you might make a bit, on the other hand if you get a bit excited you'll have to exercise your card.

Most Ek layovers are 24 hours long, simply because almost all flight are operated on a daily basis. Someone will fly the aircraft you just brought in back to DXB and you'll do the same the next day.
