Covid-19 crisis: Time for Emirates airline to think again about a trip to the stock market - Arabianbusiness

Covid-19 crisis: Time for Emirates airline to think again about a trip to the stock market - Arabianbusiness:

Emirates chairman Sheikh Ahmed has many great qualities. One of his best – from an entirely selfish and personal point of view – is that he is always friendly, open and frank with journalists. Straight questions get straight answers.

In 2008, during a trip to Beijing, I asked him when Dubai’s planned low cost airline would launch.

“We’re ready to go. Problem is I need a name. Do you have one?” he replied.

“Dubai Express!” I said excitedly. “That sounds like a post office,” he said.
