Few days ago, Adnan Kazim, the Chief Commercial Officer at Emirates, declared during the Arabian Travel Market in Dubai: " “Today we are in a good shape from a manpower side. We don’t need to re-hire – we can handle [operations] with our current manpower. But as we gradually see more ramp-up happening in the capacity in the future, for sure there are certain segments of business that maybe need more backup and more support. Definitely I think that for these businesses, we will look at them and try to ramp up manpower. But today, as we stand, we are in a good shape to meet the requirements for the future.”

Yesterday Sir Tim Clark declared that he " is hopeful of a better summer and autumn with more aircraft and crews being prepared for a return to service in the coming months." ,and that "the ideal situation is that the vaccine program beats the virus by Autumn of this year and we get some relief then demand will come back at a staggering rate."

Regarding those declarations, could we expect seeing some movements in the recruitments? Some C.C may still be on UPL, but a lot of them are using it to resign. By the word "recruitment", I am talking about some redundant crews being called back, some rejoiners or freshers crew.
However, when Sir Tim Clark talked about "crews being prepared for a return", is it possible that he was referring to the very few A380 pilots who were on UPL and were asked to be back for the Autumn time? Or could it also include C.C?
