Emirates is fabulous! I had a medical emergency on board a flight once and when we landed I was taken off the plane at Dubai and put in a little golf cart, taken to a little hospital in the airport where I was treated till I was out of pain. We were worried about our connecting flight, but the doctor told us that if we missed it the airline would put us on the next one. We asked about the cost, but the treatment was free to Emirates passengers. The only thing we had to pay for were my prescription drugs at the airport pharmacy. We were treated with friendliness and courtesy throughout what should have been a horrible experience, but wasn't thanks to the airline. I would recommend Emirates to anyone.

[@katiemay3974]

It's so nice to see a realistic travel vlog... So many on here splashing the cash on super fancy upgrades etc. whereas you keep it real on a budget 😂. Excellent :) great as always Tim!

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Thank you! .. BUT there is a hotel where I do coming up

[@sarahstrong7174]

I don't know who you know but people I know are worried about paying their bills & affording food rather than thinking about any fancy upgrades.

[@jsptravels]

You don’t need to splash the cash to be honest, I’ve done two premium economy flights to the US with Virgin Atlantic in the last 5 years, and had enough points to just do an Upper Class rewards seat to Boston. Mind you, still not that cheap - Virgins redemption fees are astronomical compared to many others! I’m no vlogger, but I did do a couple of shorts to show the other half who couldn’t come with.

Emirates is the best economy class we've flown in, but I prefer their A380 to the B777. Dubai airport is ridiculously massive and it once took us half an hour to get to the gate! Look forward to your next video.

[@CheshireCat6639]

[@doodles3075]

I think everybody looks miserable at airports now because its so stressful on the fact there's a big chance your going to get cancelled or delayed. Gone are the days you used to get excited about going on holiday. Loving this vlog Tim. Can we know what the price was on the flight?

[@TidyRC]

Not to mention all the traffic on way to airport in the car. Going anywhere is stressful now.

[@mariancounsellor]

I would say that’s not the case for most people. Everyone I know, including myself gets excited about going on holiday. The journey to the airport and being in the airport is not the holiday so if people are already miserable at that stage, it’s a mindset thing.

[@angus_m]

A few things to note: Emirates will let you choose any seat for free when check in opens (48h before dep). Emirates will only ever give free upgrades to platinum and gold members (silver very rarely), and if you ask for a free one then it’s an instant no. They always use the same gate at STN so need to wait for the gate to be displayed. They should soon be increasing the flights to STN on par with before Covid levels.

[@reggipher]

Flown with Emirates multiple times and they are by far the best. Why would you want to fly first class when their economy is so good?! Fantastic company that understands that if you want customers, you have to treat them well, and word will spread.

[@isabelstokes4042]

Absolutely agree!

@@JJ-vy2rh never flown Singapore nor Qatar altho expect to do one of them by the end of the year. Emirates is my favourite so far, followed by Etihad. BA Is shocking in comparison - only the points system allowing for a £50 flight to Dubai back in March would make me choose it again from LHR. Flew to Singapore with Emirates a week later and it was lush.

Great. We flew Emirates to Thailand via Dubai - great service, Thailand back to Dubai the staff were a bit tired and grumpy all the rest were great. We flew with 3 or 4 different airlines in Thailand ( internal) and they were wonderful, you get free food and drink on just over an hour's flight and lovely people.

[@marthaanderson2656]

Long haul from Settle to Johannesburg was an excellent experience. The lay over in Dubai was almost 6 hours so I received a complementary meal at the airport. If the layover is 8+ hours you get a sleeping room. The service is as shown right down to the sparkly ceiling and the amazing entertainment system. It was a shock navigating through the grim Joburg airport for my onward flight to George. 35 hours door to door made easier by the great service Emirates is so well known for

[@alanamcbride4856]

Always love the holiday videos, cant wait to see the waterpark video!

[@barrycoppock]

Always enjoyable and interesting to view your travel vlogs. I have always understood that Emirates were a cut above all the others (well, you get what you ay for. Usually!) and I think you showed this was definitely the case, even in economy.

[@MrGreatplum]

Great video, Tim. Good to see you on a long haul “legacy carrier” where you still get full service. Pleased to see that stanstead has now got emirates flights. They are timed to arrive in the middle of the night like that as so many people will use emirates to connect to destinations in Africa and Asia - these take off early morning to arrive the next day.

Strawberry and Redcurrant Crumble - worth the trip just for that! Though I was thinking would I want some custard on it too. Emirates have always been great value, they seem to have the newest planes. They used to codeshare with Qantas which is how I have experienced them, and a cute thing about that is that by way of that codeshare "Emirates" flights went to regional Australia. I've only transited through Dubai, but now I want to go there to see the baggage hall! Thanks for the video.

Thanks for compiling this video, Tim. Emirates must easily be STN's most prestigious airline. Can only be a matter of time before Emirates brings its A380 to the route. STN was equipped to handle the A380 years ago so no issues with the super jumbo.

[@traceycottrell5643]

Emirates in a lot of our uk airports have their own ground Crewe dnata so very rarely will you get a bag delay or flight delay due to ‘lack of staff”

[@andyt2510]

Having been watching Sam Chui for a while you always get to see the First Class or Business Class areas (though he does plonk himself down in Economy for 5 minutes occasionally!) it's nice to get a review of the seats that most of us will travel in for the entire journey, and also a budget airline v luxury airline comparison rather than different flag carriers. Though he did visit the kitchen where your food was made in his last video!

[@YannickoYT]

A lot of the comparisons you made were against what you'd expect on short haul flights. Most long haul flights you'll only really board from the front doors through the the jet way and complimentary food and drink usually comes as standard. Full cutlery is a surprise though as that used to only be in premium economy and upwards on most airlines.

Mr Tim, in 2001 flying Kuwait Air between Bangkok and Kuwait City I was unknowingly upgraded to Business Class, it wasn't until I got on the plane and was told to turn left when I showed my boarding pass (it was a 747) that I realised. At the check in desk they had said nothing. My dear old mum had flown back a couple of weeks before me and the same happened to her. So free upgrades really do happen. The only sad thing is that Kuwait Air is dry, so no free champagne for me, but the food and service was superb.

I’ve flown both upstairs and downstairs with Emirates. Easily my favourite airline. I gave up on asking for an upgrade a long time ago. I had a little success, early on, but never since. Upgrades are determined before you arrive at the airport, these days. Don’t expect that shiny gold card to help. Revenue comes first - the airlines have gotten very slick with this.

[@Rob-cy8xc]

you say thee SIM card is random but actually its such a good service. I live in Dubai, I always tell people to take the SIM card and use it. gives you the ability to call and use wifi/book taxis off the plane. can't imagine BA ever doing that! great airline, on a PA with QA economy which is also fantastic.
