A buddy of mine now works in the country United of Emirates. He has been working there for a few years now and there are surprising and funny events. I am sure we all have our stories but I thought this was one for the books.
OPERATIONAL FLIGHT DELAY SUMMARY :
- EK105 was delayed from DXB by 63 minutes, due to difficulties loading a Lamborghini automobile. There was also difficulty offloading it in ATH, which led to a 19 minute delay on EK106 out of ATH.
- EK843 returned to stand to offload a lady, who had fainted. She was in a party of 8 and 3 of the party came off. Total delay was 41 minutes.
- EK524 had to hold for almost an hour over HYD, as the airport runway lights had failed. The flight arrived 56 minutes late. EK525 departed 40 mins late.
He recieved a new revision to the Employee Handbook regarding Annual Leave tickets home:
"Where more than one spouse exists, the Annual Leave Ticket will be provided only to the spouse who is nominated by the employee.":D
In that country it is common to have more than one wife.;eeko;
