When I checked in I was informed the flight would be three hours late as there was some sort of mechanical issue leaving Dubai. Luckily I did not have a connection later that day out of HKG.

Unlike in HKG, the lounge is not ‘open air style’ but in an enclosed area with a view of a courtyard below. The food was very good and the lounge was almost empty.












Pre-departure meal


After a pre-departure meal and about five hours later it was time to head to the gate for a delayed departure.








Pre-departure refreshment




The flight was further delayed as three passengers were a no show and their luggage had to be unloaded.







Time for meal service






Main course: beef







Summary and conclusion: Once again EK has a very good hard and soft product but I would deduct marks for this flight due to the initial delay.
