"We are hoping to make some good progress today in helping the many passengers who have been held up by the ongoing disruption," said Richard Vaughan, Emirates' Divisional Senior Vice President, Commercial Operations Worldwide.
Earlier, Emirates Airline's president, Tim Clark, said that its revenue loss was about $10 million a day, in addition to the $1 million a day to accommodate passengers.
