In 2001, Emirates demonstrated its confidence in the industry’s future growth by announcing the largest order in aviation history, valued at US$15 billion. A staggering 58 new aircraft, a mix of Airbus and Boeing, were to join the rapidly expanding fleet.

In 2005, Emirates announced the largest-ever order for the Boeing 777 family of aircraft - 42 in all – in a deal worth Dhs 35.7 billion (US$9.7 billion).

At the 2006 Farnborough Air Show, Emirates signed a Heads of Agreement for 10 of Boeing’s new 747-8F aircraft, to be powered by General Electric’s GEnx jet engines, in a deal worth US$3.3 billion.

At the Dubai Airshow in November 2007, Emirates announced a historic civil aviation aircraft order when it signed contracts for a 120 Airbus A350s, 11 A380s, and 12 Boeing 777-300ERs, worth an estimated US$34.9 billion in list prices. The agreement with Airbus comprises firm orders for 50 A350-900s and 20 A350-1000s, plus 50 options for the A350-900s. The first A350 will be delivered to Emirates in 2014.

Emirates also firmed up orders on the eight A380s for which it had signed letters of intent earlier this year, and placed firm orders for an additional three of the double-decker aircraft, bringing its total firm order for the A380s to 58.

With the new order for 12 777-300ERs, valued at US$3.2 billion, Emirates now has 48 Boeing 777s pending delivery and is set to become the world’s largest 777 operator in the next few years.

Emirates’ current order-book stands at 156 aircraft, with a total value of approximately US$ 50 billion. In combination with what is already the youngest and one of the most modern fleets in worldwide commercial aviation, this commitment to the future reflects our goal to develop Dubai into a comprehensive, global, long-haul aviation hub. In the financial year 2007/2008, Emirates carried 21.2 million passengers and 1.3 million tonnes of cargo. We look forward to a bright future in which we carry many millions more across a growing network of international destinations.

 

sould be pay like before. I dont remember how the pay schedule works (when the clean up check is paid and all that) but your going to get reserve min pay plus per diem when your in training.

I know; it's killing me too. You're, your, their, they're and there. It doesn't seem that hard to get it right.

 

"They are" benefits and pay? I had no idea...

 

I think the question was what the pay schedule will be during training.

This isn't confirmed, but the company might cut you a check on the first day, if not, the pay schedule will be as usual. On the 1st and 15th of the month.

 

god damn spell check... wasnt paying attention i guess... i almost never mess that kind of thing up...
