Dubai, June 10 (RHC)-- Emirates Airlines has laid off hundreds of pilots and thousands of cabin crew as it manages a cash crunch, five company sources have said.

More redundancies were expected at Emirates this week including both Airbus A380 and Boeing 777 pilots, the sources told Reuters on the condition of anonymity.

The workforce of 4,300 pilots and nearly 22,000 cabin crew could shrink by almost a third from its pre-coronavirus levels, three of the sources said.
