10th of May!!!!
Better be good to worth the long wait (not that we have a choice anyway).
The results briefing will be hosted by HH Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum. I get this feeling he 'll announce a consistent amount of weeks. Otherwise he'd send a VP to do the talk.

Why dont you let me dream nicely in my own little world of hope?!
PS: Im wondering if the late anouncement is due to some calculations of how much of the profit will go to Dubai and its debt.

Not really. A couple of years ago when the bonus was 14 weeks, HH asked his staff whether this was the biggest bonus ever granted by an airline. So, they said. SIA once paid out 22 weeks.
I am sure, one day he wants to be able to say: This is the biggest bonus ever paid by any airline.
We all hope the time is now.

I agree with the fact that HH would love to annonce a record profit share. Would be a huge pride for him and the company. EK likes to take the pride for being the best, the biggest, the first to etc etc.
If the time is now for that record profit share or is yet to come I dont know.

Well if SQ's 22 weeks is going to be the standard then we should be in the money! The Sheikh owes the Singaporeans one for one upping him on the 380 and calling EK the first loser!
Not sure but SQ also has never made such a massive profit as EK's potential USD2+ billion!
I also believe SQ are announcing their full year on the 12th of May...2 days later!
Payback? Hmmmm!!!!

No need for (more) paranoia about the timing of the announcement. I think it is more likely that in order to get maximum publicity for the announcement they don't want it to clash with the Royal Wedding in the UK and the Easter holidays in the rest of the world. If they wanted to cover up bad news they would have timed it for the same day as the nuptials in the UK.

Big Geordie is correct the Royal wedding will be one of the most watched events in tv history so it makes sense for EK to announce record profits on a quiet news day.
Sittingidly your posts are getting more and more erratic what has the performance of the Tornado( which you know nothing about) in Libya got to do with profit share??
