I don’t doubt that — we protect them from their neighbors who might have designs on their oil. Besides those that work there, not too many Americans are vacationing in Dubai. It’s in Europe’s back yard though, relatively speaking.
They also train the flight attendants for Emerates Airways in Dubai — all different nationalities of mostly young women. I was eating in a hotel restaurant when a graduating class had their big dinner in the same restaurant — I could hardly chew from having my jaw on the floor most of the time.
If you are looking for Emirates Airways flight attendants I highly recommend the Irish Village Pub. It’s on the back side of the tennis stadium and right across from Emirates’ training facility.
