Hi!So there’s a rumour on some forums saying that the retirement age for cabin crew in Emirates is set at 51 years old.Is it true?Is it also like this for Trainers and recruiters?

I have heard that Emirates do not renew contracts for crew after the age of 50.

I think you're getting confused between RETIREMENT age, which is what is being asked about, and Recruitment age.... it's rare to be hired on as new crew after 32, but not totally unheard of. Mostly these are experienced crew.

But yes it has been said by quite a few crew now that they are receiving 1 year contracts instead of 3 at renewal and being told they won't be renewed after 50. EK are too smart to put this in writing though, and will just find another reason (excuse) to not renew the contract of those crew.

This was being discussed as to whether non-renewal of contract was a factor in the case of the crew who (allegedly) committed suicide in EBB earlier this year...

If you're 50 and still pushing a trolley down an aisle at EK, there's something wrong with that picture!
