Can you choose the currency in EK

Hi guys
Am I right by saying you can choose the currency you'd liked to be paid?
£€$..
and is it all the same money

Nope.

You get paid in UAE Dirhams. 3.67DHS- 1 US dollar, and that is a fixed ratio.

We get exchange rate protection, which is an amount calculated if there is a change in exchange rate in your home currency (based on your passport).

With the AUD at historic high values, it nets me about $800/mth, so it's not going to let you retire early!!

Wiz,

Your profile says you're a pilot, care to clarify the $800/month part?

Helen,

That is the portion of my pay from Exchange Rate Protection.
