The service on board was excellent, the flight wasn’t overbooked and we departed and arrived on time.
Emirates is always a pleasure to travel on. From the spectacular First and Business Class configurations of your big A380 and 777, to the Bar Lounge to, of course, your impecable on board flight attendance and their iconic uniform, now also even available for young girls. All the destinations that Emirates offers makes it an airline of choice many a time.
Some Crew were distinguishably fake in their interactions with passengers.
The flight was nice and on time. The comfort can be slightly better in business class
Not too happy with ground staff at Dubai airport. We had asked for wheel chair, and we were told to walk a long distance, poorly organised. And then at boarding to Mumbai flight wecwere treated rudely by the local Emirates staff forced to check in our cabin bags, we told them we were transiting.
Fresh energetic and friendly crew, great food, brand new plane and non stop entertainment
Emirates is good airlines. But there plane seats were very small and congested. Need to little good and big seats in economy class.
Most aspects of the flight were great! The entertainment was mediocre, though, which made such a long flight less enjoyable.
The food was pretty good and the crew were excellent. It would have been excellent all round but for screaming children. Six hours at least of a 10 hr flight. Mostly 1 child clearly on the spectrum and probably ADHD but I really felt for the parents and grandparents who were obviously struggling and doing the best they could under the circumstances. No reflection on the airline of course and we all need to be more tolerant with these challenges . Slept for 15 hrs when I got home.
The boarding experience was worst ever. Single aerobridge used for boarding and deboarding which led to lot of chaos. Food options were not great. First flight delayed by more than 3 hours which led to missing of the next flight we were stuck at Dubai airport by more than 6 hours
I never made this flight but the staff helped to get me rebooked (see previous review)
The flight was okay, but legroom was tight for me and I’m only average height, although at 30” legroom is comparable with most other airlines. Not much room in the aisle either making the trek to and from the toilet difficult with passengers standing in the aisle. On the whole, it’s probably on a par with budget airlines and the ticket process extremely competitive.
The seat was very uncomfortable. It helped to use the foot rest. Could not sleep because of the seat.
The seats are incredibly uncomfortable. My luggage didn't make it on the flight from London to Nashville.
The plane itself is old and way overcrowded. The crew do a great job of trying to mitigate. It is just uncomfortable for over 8 hours, bearable, but barely. Boarding, and the baggage game, is ludicrous. Why charge extra to check bags when there is not enough room for everyone to "carry-on" and checking is needed? I do not think these issues would be different with other airlines, I believe it is the attitude that squeezes every penny out of each traveler.
Expected a lot better service paying for a business class seat. Seemed to be short on staff and did not get the service I expected.
Nice experience. Baggage arrival in Mumbai wasn't that quick and needs improvement.
I flew Club World and was SHOCKED at how totally absent the crew were for the duration of the flight. So much so that we received no drink service other than the post-departure cocktail and that was it. Wasn't even offered tea/coffee and the in-flight attention was so bad that literally minutes before landing the one crew member for our row was scrambling to pick up left-behind water bottles, glassware, trash. And the rest of the crew had already stowed all carts, he was cramming the trash into the lavatory trash can and was stashing the glassware frantically in the galley as we were on final approach. He was so scrambled he left two overhead lockers wide open (that he'd opened) for landing. Unbelievable!
Paid for first class and was surprised that the seats were the same in economy except no one was in the middle seat. I expected an actual first class seat.
The flight was several times changed. That was inconvenient, to sah the least.
