Emirates Accomodations for Single FO's

[Skater]

I thought being an American in Dubai, was like being in a monkey whore house with a fist full of bananas.

I've talked to a couple of single EK pilots and they were pretty happy with their apartments...er, excuse me, "flats". TC

Single FO Apartments

I'm a single FO living in 21st Century on Sheik Zayed Rd. In my opinion Millenium is the nicest building. Workout and pool area are better than a lot of gyms. Not to mention the scenery! 21st is nice as well, it's in a better location but not as nice of a building. I had to wait 3 months to get put here and I hear that the time is increasing to be given your permanent place. The guy I talked to last week had to wait 4 months. There are no open 2 bedroom apartments on Sheik Zayed Rd for single FO's. FA's share a 2 bedroom place and when one of them moves out they kick the other one out and move in a pilot. That's how it has been working lately. You will be frustrated living in temporary for that long, or at least I was.

Best of Luck

Do a search for an older thread.

Facts and opinions on Emirates Airlines.

I posted it in the majors section. I put honest answers to a lot of common questions people have about the company, training and living here.

Dubai life

Don't ask them if it's easy for an American to get laid in Dubai.

If you can't get laid in this town............you've got to be a-sexual
