The pandemic has not been easy on anyone not even on the airline Emirates. Emirates recently released its financial record for the past year, it was not so good. It is the first time in 30 years that this huge company has posted a loss. It has almost suffered a loss of AED 22 billion. The airline has done everything possible to reduce its expenditures, the workforce has been reduced by 31% and so much more. But the main issue here is that the airline had to face a reduction of passengers by 88%.
