Emirates may cut
15% due to corona crisis
Tim Clark, president of the United
Arab Emirates Emirates, the largest
airline in the Middle East, told the BBC
that the Corona19 crisis could cut down
to 15% of employees.
The airline employs about 60,000 people
and can lose up to 9,000 people.
This is the first time a Middle Eastern airline
has the largest sales and
a number of speculations have been
made over Emirates’ relatively tight
fiscal cuts.
“Emirates’ conditions aren’t
as severe as other airlines,” Clark said. “
I expected this year to be the best year
before the corona 19 pandemic,
but the current situation has
changed rapidly.”
On March 25, Emirates suspended
all passengers on 157 routes, except
for cargo planes and special planes
for withdrawal purposes.
We plan to resume operating regular
routes from last month and re-operate
58 routes until the middle of next month.
