Think that 350 were for growth and 150 for attrition .

How many pilots are going to leave in the summer?

Apparently they are considering not counting the time the autopilot is on. :E

... or time on the ****ter.

If one does submit a resignation and has vacation time accrued, what is happening regards that leave? Is it being given during the 90 period or is EK so short of pilots that they will just pay it out when you leave?

It's calculated pro-rata and you should get what you are owed as calculated per the Employee Regulations Manual.

i.e. you will get what you've acrrued plus the amount pro-rata for the portion of the year you worked. Conversely you could owe them money if you've taken more than your share of this year's leave..

Thanks Mr. Goodcat…

But what I'm asking is: If someone resigns today and has a balance of say 30 days leave that he hasn't taken yet…. Is EK all the sudden"forced upon him" before his 90 days are up so as to not owe him any outstanding leave balance he may have…. OR…. are they so short of pilots currently that they won't offer that leave to him and instead, fly the resigning pilot fully for the 90 days and then just pay him extra for the excess leave balance when he leaves after the 90 days?

Apologies for not being more clear in my original question.

I can answer this KL, PM me, I have been told to let go from this forum, so I will post to you as PM.

The answer to your question is Emirates would much rather pay you a fraction of what is owed to you in the form of vacation pay at a daily rate then give you a whole month off.
Also the airline is so short pilots right now they can't afford to give you any time off even if you already earned your hard earned vacation days.
SOPS stay on the forum and remind us how great it is to leave Emirates. So many pilots just want to bury their head in the sand and tell themselves everything is going to be okay. Something about a fiddler and Rome burning comes to mind.

Please don't tell me you did what prats told you to do whilst at EK:ugh: Don't listen to them now, if you have some valid info or point of view then let us hear it:ok:

I'm sure you can manage that between walking the dogs and doing the garden.

Heh heh, that was pretty funny :p
