EK Resignation Tips
Some of the EK crew visas have this and some don't. I had many confused looks at the US Embassy in Australia as they said they'd never seen the annotations before and I said it must be a Dubai/EK thing.

EK cancelled both my C1D and my B1B2 US visa. The B doesnt even have any Annotation about Emirates airlines. And I never knew that they would cancel it together with the UAE visa, learned it when I left the place.

Question. When you leave what will happen with your leave days? I got some planned in December and of course im accumulating days as we speak. Can we get then paid off or will they just reduce your resignation period?
Basic pay by 12. Divide by 365.

Regarding the US visa, my C1/D is annotated Emirates Airlines and I use it 3 times/month to enter the US without any problems, just like I used to do with my previous C1/D when I first started to work for EK and my US visa had my previous employers name on it before it expired and nothing was mentioned either by US border control...
In order for EK to cancel that visa they would need to send your passport to the US embassy which they don’t do...

enough is enough, about to resign.
1) will they keep a specific amount from your last salary or the complete last salary?
2) how do they calculate school fees for your kids if you leave end of the year?
3) has anyone transferred the final settlement to swissquote via al rostamani? if yes, should i register my swissqoute account with al rosatamani before i start the visa cancellation process?
4) how does it work with accommondation? will they come to your location and check together with you your house and will they tell you what you can expct to pay?
thanks for quick update

So in summer 2018 you will have 2015 and 2016 no longer being deducted, but will have 4 invoices (for 2017 and 2018) still running down. Once you resign, you will owe the remaining amount on those 4 invoices. As well , even though the school year is Sept- end of June, they consider the whole year, so if you leave on July 1, you will owe 2 months worth of the 72,500 back to the company. You can look on HR direct under the education section to see what your invoices are sitting at.
However , If your school fees fall within the allowance, then the only thing you need to worry about is the issue of owing 2 months of school fees back to the company if your Last date of service is not Aug 31. Unnecessarily complicated but who is surprised !
You've answered your own question. If it's only available to encash after 3 years and you leave less than 3 years then no you can't encash it. Like any other employee it's likely a case of use it or lose it. Never mind you can never get it when you want it, it will still be your fault for not using all your leave...
It's a thread about resignation, so you're actually asking about cashing in leave while still employed/not planning to resign? That's a different question.
And you'll find while labour law says one thing, they will try invoke the "it doesn't apply because we are in a free zone" argument. There are several other provisions required by UAE labour law they don't follow and this is the reason they give

Airdancer, Wings is ex cabin crew. Hope your leaving goes smoothly.
Mate? Have you seen the question I asked? "If you leave before the 3 years mark"?
And if they sent you an email stating they will pay it, why did you ask if it will be paid out? Or was your intended question: 'Will they ACTUALLY pay it out as the email says?' (knowing full well that often they say one thing and do another)
Don is an A380 captain. See I know who people are too
Best of luck with the bailout. They love to make things hard, but the EOS people are actually super helpful. Every question I asked they told me the correct info. It's the other departments you have to worry about, some will follow what EOS says, others won't and you'll need to circle back to them to get the right response from whoever it is that's stalling you. Accommodation will be the 'fun' one, if you're unlucky enough to have to deal with them

The amount that the company pays varies depending on which country you are moving back to, it is also based on the country you joined from. The figures are in the employee manual and easy enough to find.
I have been gone for just under 2 weeks and its only been just in the past few days where I have found my sleeping patterns begin to return to normal. I get to bed at 2200 and wake up at 0600 and sleep the whole time. I left EK with no job to go to which is not a typical move for pilots but its been well worth it. EK had sucked every last bit of enjoyment out of flying that working in a factory would be a step up.
The last 90 days can test your patience but trust me...its worth it.

Great thread with awesome info. I’m about 6 months out and getting my ducks in a row ...
Any advice from someone whom may have left and are renting out property they own. I intend to keep my villa and rent it out after I leave.
How do you go about getting a clearance letter from the bank if you have a “salary letter” as in this case and is this possible ?
Also - what about a personal loan.
Many thanks in advance and apologies if I missed an answer in an earlier reply.
