DUBAI// A storm that blanketed the Northeastern United States with snow has delayed three Emirates flights between Dubai and New York, the airline said.
Flight EK202 was due to depart from John F Kennedy International Airport in New York at 11pm yesterday, New York time, but has been delayed for 10 hours, the company said.
The flight has not yet departed. Flight EK204, also traveling from New York to Dubai, was set to depart at 10.40am today, New York time, but will leave three hours later. And Emirates flight EK203 from Dubai to New York was delayed for about four hours, but has since departed, the statement said. "
Emirates apologises for any inconvenience caused to its customers, however the safety of our passengers and crew is of the highest priority and will not be compromised," the statement said.
A spokesman for Etihad Airways said that none of its flights were affected by the storm.

Cultural fiesta
What: The Al Burda Festival
When: November 14 (from 10am)
Where: Warehouse421, Abu Dhabi
The Al Burda Festival is a celebration of Islamic art and culture, featuring talks, performances and exhibitions. Organised by the Ministry of Culture and Knowledge Development, this one-day event opens with a session on the future of Islamic art. With this in mind, it is followed by a number of workshops and “masterclass” sessions in everything from calligraphy and typography to geometry and the origins of Islamic design. There will also be discussions on subjects including ‘Who is the Audience for Islamic Art?’ and ‘New Markets for Islamic Design.’ A live performance from Kuwaiti guitarist Yousif Yaseen should be one of the highlights of the day.

Tips for job-seekers
- Do not submit your application through the Easy Apply button on LinkedIn. Employers receive between 600 and 800 replies for each job advert on the platform. If you are the right fit for a job, connect to a relevant person in the company on LinkedIn and send them a direct message.
- Make sure you are an exact fit for the job advertised. If you are an HR manager with five years’ experience in retail and the job requires a similar candidate with five years’ experience in consumer, you should apply. But if you have no experience in HR, do not apply for the job.
