WTF are you trying to say sittingidly, FFS (For F&$k sakes) speak English man. John Howard might be right based on that rant.

Anyway minimum 8 weeks, max 15 weeks. Don't expect much of a pay rise as the mis managers are never very original and will likely follow EYs ill founded example.

The barnacles (HR) usually base their decisions on lame articles written by other HR idiots in lame magazines like Arabian business and the like, as they are usually lacking for ideas of their own.

Well that's my rant now back to my Laphroaig.

Sit, you are obviously unstable, or a knob. Perhaps both.

Last year when EK made exceptional profits when the aviation world was suffering, EK and Dubai wanted the world to know this fact.

With the Ingerlund elections somewhere towards the end of April last year, our Annual Report was also postponed til after the elections. I think they wanted the world's media attention on Dubai.

Not saying they are postponing the announcement because of the Royal Wedding, but I would not put it past them.

Well in this instance the people who give a ****e are the PR department of Emirates, why bury their biggest ever profit when all the news will be about the royal wedding, whether you are a Brit basher or not its in many people's eyes the biggest news story of the year.

Pretty much the same could be said about EK's profits........The only people that actually care are those who work there and are reliant on a big figure for a big bonus.......The rest of the world could not give a sontinental chit how much money EK makes. Face it, before you worked at Emirates, did you even know if EK declared their profits?

There are however millions upon millions of morons out there that do care about the wedding of two plonkers that they will never meet. A lot of those wedding watchers are not even British subjects.........Go figure. The world is a strange place........I'm guessing that the announcement has been delayed because the "boss" might be planning to watch the wedding himself......

I cant belive that some of you think that world revolvs around aviation and more than that around EK.
There's a world out there and this world doesnt gives a monkey's a..ss about our profit share or even know about it.
Who cares in UK, Burkina Fasso, US or China how much money EK made?

This anouncement is important for the employees and the competition.
That's all.
the delay is probably due to more calculations.

Disagree strongly Skytrax - I imagine IATA want to see an airline turning some good profits with the doom and gloom of the last ten years.. maybe the world wants to see something positive too!

As well as Boeing and Airbus (EK got a lot of their machinery coming), and the other airlines no doubt. Last year the results were delayed 'cos of the UK election, this year for the wedding. Have you thought that maybe HH Sheihks Mohammed and Ahmed may be in London around the end of April??????

@W.Knight

I agree with you here.
IATA and main manufacturerers are part of the aviation world.
They want to know (my assumption is that they already know. they keep a close track of all their big clients profits and business trends). Anyone who has in interested in aviation would like to know.

What Im talking about is the general public from all over the world. They dont care about our profit share. My point is that EK profit is not global news.


EK is, of course, interested about the impact of its anouncement is going to have in media. They already know more or less, as they work with big PR companies which can measure the impact in advance..
EK profit is never gonna make the first page in Times, NY Times or CNN. this sort of news is treated in business pages and economics shows, unless is something extremly out of ordinary.

In local and regionaly media the subject is gonna have more coverage but this is because of the proximity rule. Its something strongly related to the country and the Gulf region.

Except of course, the general public is hoping that Emirates will continue to:

A) Offer cheap flights, point to point around most of the world.

B) Continue to sponsor financially their fave rugby/cricket/football/yacht/horse/basketball/knitting team etc etc....

C) Who knows... But good news is good news After volcanoes, tsunamis, terrorists, agitation in MENA countries, solar flares and speeding tickets....
