well.....
As for the guys at EY, I can't comment. Sorry boys.
As for us up the road I can comment. This 3 weeks "profit share" doesn't even cover 3 out of the 6 months I did overtime according to the new 92 hour rule!!! WTF!!!
No respect.
Whatever,
Joke

Oh i'm sorry, were we talking bonus or Profit Share? And if you want to be like that, how many 100's of billions did AUH (Etihad) give to DXB (Emirates) to save it from going bankrupt?

Would it be possible to join all four threads into ONE, you guys all have great comments and it will be easier if there is just one thread as they all mention the same topic.
Cheers and remember that we love our job, we are not here for the money !!! ja ja ja AS IF !!!!

hahahaha hilarious! As if you reached into your wallet and handed over the cash personally.
Educate yourself a bit.
Dubai is bust. Abu Dhabi is not.
Emirates is very profitable. Etihad bleeds money like a stuck pig.
AUH may have bailed out DXB, but it wasn't Emirates Airline that needed the money.
If you want what Emirates employees get, just apply for a job. They could use the people, what with those trying to leave. Otherwise you just sound like cabin crew who whine about pilots making more money than them for an entirely different job.

Did you noticed that the screen behind was informing all of us in bullet points all those numbers about EK and DNATA, and yet the most important, THE NUMBER 3 was not there? 
Also at the moment that it was anounced it wasn't very clear, some people next to me thought that he said 8 weeks, so I guess that the ones that clapped were not sure at what they were clapping to.

I normally try to take the middle ground and try and apply some sense and logic but you know what, it really is true most of the contributers to the EK threads on Pprune are a bunch of whinging t*ssers!
Yep absolutely terrible! Tell you what go along to a pilot from Virgin, BA, Lufty, Air France or any of the US carriers and tell them that we have decided to give the average Captain an $8k bonus, I am sure they would all be slagging off the company too........not!
They didn't set a target and the profit was less than that set 2 years ago but elected to pay up. I'm off to enjoy the dosh!

EKWHISLEBLOWER,
Just make sure that when you are spreading the news on how terrific EK is and how you are off to enjoy the "dosh" that you also let them know how our productivity and fatigue have gone through the roof and that your 8K is a fraction of what the company should have paid if they hadn't shifted the goal posts.
and then.......
Go and give yourself a good hard upper cut.
Cav.

They know they made bucketloads of cash.
We know they made bucketloads of cash.
And they know we know they made bucketloads of cash.
So they acknowledge meeting the target (whatever it was) with the obligatory 2 weeks. They acknowledge grossly exceeding the target with the minimum extra of ONE more week.
Your BA pilot doesn't put up with the lies and dishonesty and and small-minded pettiness and back-stabbing we enjoy here and gets to live in (arguably) a civilised part of the first world.
Their B.S. bonus is meant to help compensate for the lifestyle sacrifices made by the foreigners who come here to earn the profit for these guys.
If you live in a dreamworld or fool's paradise where you're happy, then in a hat's off to you. We all do what we must to get by.

I think it was 20 billion. "Hundreds"?? Do I care either way? Take a guess.
It's amusing to see someone is still living in a world where personal loyalty to these creeps is still a virtue. Or are you a local in an tribal d!ck-waving competition? If so, I don't think anyone here gives a **** about who's got the biggest/longest/tallest/fattest/loudest/stupidest whatever.
