Emirates changes pilot, crew rosters on US flights after Trump order

Dubai

EMIRATES airline has changed pilot and flight attendant rosters on flights to the United States following the sudden US travel ban on seven Muslim-majority countries, highlighting the challenges facing airlines trying to deal with the new rules.

The world's largest long-haul carrier, which flies daily to 11 US cities, has made "the necessary adjustments to our crewing, to comply with the latest requirements", an Emirates spokeswoman told Reuters by email on Sunday.
