Emirates has a specific place in my heart. I was a visiting researcher in Lisbon back in early 2020 when the pandemic broke out, and Emirates was the last airline that still operated flights in March and it carried me back home safely. Had I not booked Emirates, my flight would be cancelled long before and I would be stranded with an expired visa and would have a hard time to find somewhere to stay during lockdown. In a sense, Emirates saved my life back then and judging from the fully booked flight, I assume a lot of other people as well. And even on that flight, service was not compromised in the slightest. This warrants my loyalty with Emirates on any international travels. I'm going back to Lisbon next year and I'm saving up points for business class this time. Cheers, thanks for the review!

I have been flying Emirates Business from Australia to Europe for 22 years and definitely have no thought of changing from them. Always choose the A380 when available. Occasionally have chance to upgrade to first class on a sector for a small extra payment. They are the best.

I'd never have ever thought of flying Emirates as I used to be loyal to Qantas. Then one day my Qantas Business class Sydney to London ended up being on an Emirates flight and that was my first experience ever with Emirates. They are 1000% better than Qantas in every possible way. The service is above and beyond, the feeling of the flight from the moment you enter the airport is first class. I'll never fly anyone else ever again unless I absolutely have to. I'm now 100% an Emirates loyal returning customer. Oh and Dubai Business lounge is to die for, my favourite part of a long haul is that stop in Dubai!!!

I have a sort of similar experience, not quite Dans trifecta but memorable enough to me that I took a photo of it that I still have. In March 2020 I decided to bring forward my Emirates return flight from Cape Town back to London because South Africa was about to lock down due to the Covid-19 pandemic (the UK was also about to lock down but I wanted to be at home for lockdown not stuck in a foreign country). I got to Dubai and changed planes for my connecting flight to LHR and was very amused to see that the gate I was departing from was gate C19!

Not necessarily, there’s no definition for “business class”, the product should just match the cost. It’s like saying “a burger shouldn’t be anything other than wagyu beef”, what if it’s a $10 burger? If they’re charging premium price, expect a premium product. There are plenty of airlines that sell a budget business class and you can’t expect premium on a budget

I totally share your view. It is simply divine. I was randomly upgraded on my first emirates flight and i kept repeating "OMG" in my mind the entire duration of the flight. The way they handle it is so smooth, that i was literally all relaxed just 5 minutes after boarding (The drinks and hot towels, and all gifts definitely help). After that i literally forgot i was on the plane for most of the time.... I unboarded almost totally regenerated. Unforgettable!

You raise a very good point Dan and one that has stopped me from straying from Emirates! We have wanted to try Qatar a few times, but the idea that you don’t know what plane, seat or configuration on any of the flights has always put me off. With Emirates Business / First Class, I know it’s always going to be good - and it’s never let us down. It’s a great thing that they’ve upgraded or will upgrade the 777; don’t understand what the hate is about, the business seat on the a380 is ridiculously comfortable and has a good deal of privacy, so not sure what Anyone else would want.

Emirates has fancy products like Bvlgari and Voya on board. The lounge for Emirates is neat in terms of food and a shoe shine. Though the washroom in Emirates sucks the showers and toilets felt like you were showering in a YMCA compared to Qatar. Qatar has multiple lounge for various status members, so it doesn't get crowded. I really like the lounge in Doha. The whole esthetics and art are really elegant. I do feel like Emirates catering in some instances is better than QR, though QR dine on demand is neat. Though being able to fly A380 more often is plus point on EK than QR.

I have so many pairs of Emirates First Class PJ's (and the cool kits they provide too). I use them all the time and my entire family use them as well. It's really interesting that long Business Class flights now get them as well. I'm looking forward to the end of this year when all 7 of us are flying to Dubai in Business and hopefully we get the PJ's too. AKL to DXB is 17 hours, so we should. Love the on board Emirates service. It really is amazing.

I’d agree. I pick Qatar over Singapore because I’m in the U.S. and fly to India and have a trained service dog. Qatar’s QSuites are miles ahead of the Emirates business class in my opinion. Emirates looks flashy but in a gaudy way whereas Qatar’s QSuites is way more private and minimal.

I love the Emirates Boarding Music, it so good. But to anwser your question. Some airlines have a beter A-game than Emirates, but their B-game often sucks (like getting Qatared and flying one of those crappy seats). Emirates offers a good product overall and is very consistent. Also their ground services are much more consistent than others. They have Emirates only lounges on many airports, while other airlines only have that on their home airport. I love Emirates, and would gladly book Emirates Business Class over many many airlines.

One of the perks I appreciate about Emirates Business that I don't get on Qatar is complementary chauffeur service (except on the cheapest fares). It saves me money to get to/from airports. And with 40 passengers to service and one of the cheaper business class products out there, you've got to wonder how they could afford it.

the Emirate of Dubai has lots more going for it than the state of Qatar. Even within the realm of contract workers who get deported after losing their jobs, Dubai is like the London/New York of that industry. The Las Vegas of Saudi youth, even. ie, people actually go to/from Dubai. So the routes have real demand over just connections. Which means cargo as well.

Hi Dan, I have not watched your videos for a while, for no reason really. But after starting to watch this video, I realise that I have really missed watching your great channel. I am a huge fan of Emirates, and business class in the 380s. And I love to board from the lounge in Dubai. That is so nice, to be able to enter an elevator straight from the business class lounge, and board the plane from there. This February, I flew with Qatar Airways from Zürich via Qatar to Bankgok and back, in business class. And I have to say, that I was a bit dissapointed. Maybe I expected too much. It was not an unpleasant flight, but it was not as great as I thought it might be. I will always prefer flying EK, CX, SQ and maybe even BA and LX, over QR.

Last year, I got to enjoy the first and probably only First Class flights in my life. Zürich to Johannesburg and back, with Swiss. It was a great deal, as we actually paid less than for business class with EK for example. We just had to fly from Stockholm, which was cool for us, and have a 24 hours stopover in Zürich, which was also fine. I enjoyed it a lot, for me as a flight freek, it was a great experience. I especially enjoyed the lounge in Zürich. Onboard, the experience was really good. But I would never pay the regular price to fly First Class.

Great video... but the A380 you flew seems to have the old business class seats. Not the updated white seats (as shown in the pic you referred to for B777s upgrade). They are slowly rolling it out across their A380 line. Quick way to tell is if the A380 has a premium economy cabin (when taking up the stairs), then it has the updated white business class seats.

Your comment on progressively changing your mind on Middle Eastern airlines is interesting. I live in Southeast Asia and to fly to Europe, we have a choice of Asian, European and Middle Eastern carriers. The Middle Eastern airlines usually have very attractive fares but my experience has been a mixed bag. The flights from Asia are usually red eyes, and it doesn't help that you have to transit around 7 hours into your flight, just when you're settled in and ready to nap. You land in the Middle East around 2am, sometimes without an aerobridge, and spend half an hour or more in a bus. Then you have to navigate a huge airport, where staff can be brusque, unhelpful, cold or just plain unhappy. You finally get on the plane again, where food and service may be good, but the transit experience leaves you totally drained. And then you wonder if you should have just paid a bit more for the non-stop (or even one-stop) options on Asian and European carriers.

Emirates is definitely an outlier in the region for having enough gates for their flights. But yes, if your options allow using Swiss, Air France, or any of the major Asian airlines, it really doesn't matter much. I just sort by trip duration on google flights & then check the airline website for seat availabilty.

I flew the A380 Business from Melbourne to London and it was great. Coming home however I opted for a cheaper route and made the disastrous mistake of flying via Singapore on the 777 economy from Dubai. The A380 return economy (to Dubai) had good seats, adequate leg room for someone 6ft and under, charging ports and a full entertainment package. The 777 however is horrendous and uncomfortable, smaller seats, less leg room, less entertainment choices. The business class still had the 2-3-2 lay out and I was glad after seeing it that I was unable to upgrade using miles for that product. It just doesn't hold a candle to the A380 configuration. I was lucky that I checked and changed my seat before my return flight. Fortunately the flight wasn't full, so from Singapore back to Melbourne I had a full row of 4 seats and I was able to lay down to sleep. I cannot fault any of the cabin crew on any of my flights, they were all fantastic.

I recently flew their B777-300 Business Class from DXB to ORD, which had a 2-3-2 configuration. Although their seats were comfortable, I found it annoying that I had to jump over the person next to me to go to the lavatory. Speaking of the pajamas. I was flying First Class (upgraded using points) from KWI to DXB. I was given a set of pajamas and slippers, even though it was a two hour flight. Emirates has the best slippers and pajamas of any airline I have flown.

i wish you had the updated version of the a380, the color scheme is beautiful, the seats are much more comfortable and the cabin feels, much more spacious

Dan if you ever get a chance, I was able to fly in business on a small french airline this past june. Its called Corsair and despite being in their older cabin on the A330-300, the flight from Paris to Montreal was extraordinary for the seemingly budget price. The soft product was terrific and smaller items like slippers and glass cups instead of plastic were great additions. This airline doesn't get very much attention and I think it would make a great video. Thanks!

Excellent review and trip report as usual. If I can nitpick for a minute, I'm pretty sure 18:33 shows you flying over Myanmar rather than Bangladesh.

We were going to fly out of ADL on the 777-200LR but now flying from MEL on the A380 for exactly the reason you pointed out. 2-2-2 as opposed to the 1-2-1 layout on the A380, and an Emirates lounge at MEL and of course the inflight bar. SQ has absolute rubbish seating in comparison and won’t fly them unless the issue of hard seats and awkward sleeping position is addressed.

I got to fly Emirates Business Class 3 Times in August, twice on a 777 and once on A380 and I totally get what you are saying. The product is so good already and the atmosphere so special, why invent a new seat when the existing one is amazing already and works for them. I think where the airline can improve most is at DXB airport. The experience there was the worst of my trip and also the lounges should be more consistent across the terminals (I had an older one which was fine but the ones in Singapore and Melbourne were better)

For families, I am 100% for Emirates. The lounge on board the A380 is the perfect place to bring your toddler to avoid disturbing other passengers. And the crew are wonderful with kids.

I use that lounge a lot and I have never seen it that empty, it's one of the things I hate about Emirates. Looking forward to seeing how it compares with the Turkish lounge when I use them for the first time in April for one of my regular London to Auckland trips
