I recently flew Qantas, Cathay and Emirates in business class. All were very good but there is just something about Emirates, especially on the A380 which makes it stand out over the other 2. Food, service and the onboard lounge make me always look to see if I can fly Emirates A380 as my first choice.

[@mgshadowkat3066]

I went on this kind of plane on business class when I was younger. It was around 2016 after my cousin's wedding, and when we were heading back to America my father got us the tickets. I remember how for each seat, you could call other seating number with the remote. My older sister called me in the middle of the flight just to try it out. And the bar was a hit even for me! Even though I was far too young to indulge in alcohol, I loved the pastries that they gave out and I would get out of my seat occasionally just to get one. The flight attendants saw me doing this and I guess they thought it was funny because they also came to my seat to offer me other snacks.😅It's definitely earned it's place for best airlines in my book.

I want to thank Emirates for arranging someone to meet me at my arrival gate and expedite my transition through security to my next flight, since my connection time was tight. They arranged this without my knowledge. Thank You, Emirates.

[@aengusryan5948]

I've always found Emirates business class to be excellent, never had a bad experience with them. Not as much privacy as Qatar (I'm yet to try them) but super comfy, always really nice staff, excellent food any they are super kind and generous to the kids when we travel with them, lavishing them with gifts and stuff to entertain them. Definitely my go to airline when doing my usual route Brisbane - Dublin.

[@ml9052]

I specifically went with Qatar for Brisbane-Dublin as they have the dreaded 2-3-2 777 for the DUB-DXB leg. Would you say it's still worth going with EK? I slept the best ever in the QSuite. Admittedly Qatar also used some rather tired 787's from DUB-DOH but at lteast they were all reverse herringbone with direct access. I also liked how the lounges in Doha were airy and the airport not as maze-like.

[@aengusryan5948]

@ml9052 of you're travelling on your own, an aisle seat on Emirates is great. Shared centre rows not as great, but still perfectly nice. You can't go wrong. I do like the idea of the privacy of the QSuites, yet to try it. Price of flights at the moment sucks 😕

Couldn't agree more of what u said about the service. Just took my first Emirates flight in economy three weeks ago and the service or friendliness of the crew was average. Food, entertainment and everything else however are excellent.

[@runningrauster8971]

I’ve flown emirates several times and the inconsistency in service does stand out. Food is usually if not always excellent, though on early AM flights to the US, I’m not a fan of forcing me into a smaller breakfast initially and then serving a more substantial lunch four to five hours later. The A380 seats are excellent and private though beware certain flight routings as the party at the rear bar can be obnoxious. But what keeps me from flying them now that I am US based again is the 777 flown on my home route. It’s lack of privacy is a no go for me. Three seats together in the middle screams British airways circa 2000! I had a neighbor commenting/judging me on my drink choices. No thank you, I’ll take qatar every time.

[@gavindoescoffee]

Great video Dan. It shows the amount of work and passion you put into the videos. Keep it up 🎉

[@shekarc]

@Dan: Your NonStop Dan seat database is incorrect. It shows that in a row with middle seats together has Windows seats with no privacy. That is not correct. If the Middle seats are together, then the Window seats are also closer to windows with more privacy. In airline terms, if the middle seats are labeled as E and F, then the windows seats are only A and K. Whereas, if the middle seats are D and G, then the window seats are B and J.

The lack of privacy means those seats can no longer be considered the best available.

Just echoing OP’s sentiment, Dan. Love the videos and I have zero problem with you getting sponsors, but BetterHelp isn’t the service they promised you.

Can we all agree hole-heartedly that Emirates business class is severely underrated compared to the likes of Virgin Atlantic, Qatar, BA, Delta, United and others? I have travelled both 777 and A380 business class on Emirates and I found both were easily better than some seats from airlines listed above including Qatar's other seats in business class. Obviously though the A380 business class is way better than its less private and cheaper feeling 777 counterpart.

Not to mention the noisy like a truck 777. You can't even sleep with noise cancelling headphones on.

I live in the Middle East and typically travel three weeks a month. Usually I have a choice of airline, and usually First or Business. I don’t consider myself a fussy flier. Emirates is under-appreciated IMO. They have a much more consistent experience than Qatar. When Qatar is good, it is unbeatable. But it isn’t always good. If it’s not the Q suite the seat us ordinary. Equipment changes are frequent. Emirates has no such issues. They never randomly switch up. Customer experience on emirates is very good. Qatar is awful on the ground. IRROPs, complaints, call centre: all better on Emirates, mostly because Emirates staff are empowered to take decisions. In summary, I’m rarely surprised in a bad way on Emirates. On Qatar, it happens often. Just my experience.

Hello Dan thank you very much for your fantastic video. My wife and I would like to fly from Zurich via Dubai to Perth in December. As the whole flight is quite expensive in business class, we are considering flying only the Dubai-Perth flight in business class.

Is the business class often fully booked? I would be super thankful for any advice… Best regards

Hey. Thank you for a very informative video, but can somebody please help me with a question. I fly Australia to UK frequently, but always in economy class.

This June I am lucky enough to be traveling Australia to uk 380 business class and I am so excited! My question is this… I have requested Indian vegetarian, as I always do, but will this simply be the same food tray as I get in economy, or will it be something nicer? I really want the ‘proper’ business class experience, so I’d be pretty sad to just get the economy tray bought upstairs. Should I just go for the ‘normal’ menu and hope that there’s something vegetarian? Thank you in advance.

[@SeanGoresht]

Absolutely refreshing to see an airline taking vegan food seriously; -- and a vegan traveller I flew business-class on United and had an absolutely horrid experience, having gotten switched over from BA, trans-Atlantic. UA had absolutely NO options without prior notice, which I wouldn't have been able to provide to UA, considering I just got offloaded to them. Anyway, I experienced a very similar experience on Royal Jordanian on my Business-Class flight from Tunis, so as long as you alert the airline and you don't have last-minute "refuelling issues" on the vessel, you should be accommodated as a vegan passenger.

[@803midd]

It's not always like this. I flew with them from Japan and back.. the meal from Japan was extremely disappointing.. only grilled vegetables for dinner! The flight from Dubai back was a little better - an omelet with veggies, bread and fruit - but this was all I got on a 10h flight. Lots of drinks to compensate..
