@wecanfly777 am not sure what's the hype for? Your explanation ridicules the news reporting which now appears to be completely misleading.
I've flown with EK a fraction of what others here have. The approximate value of the upgrades/op-ups/miles burned in my humble case is at least 50k USD but don't see myself tattooing the EK logo, or going to the media about it. And then your pictures/video of F is only for HKG-BKK, and we all know how long of a flight and how costly that is :P

Well, if Airbus decides to stop production of the A380 then EK will be forced to continue using B777, which is my favorite aircraft due to its generous space and comfort with EK and QR

I don't know why EK uses the A380 to Hong Kong rather than its B777. I prefer the B777 as opposed to the A380, and found it to be more comfortable believe it or not!

I know that this doesn't make sense, but try searching for a flight from Dubai - Hong Kong departing 26 and returning 28 or 29..... for outbound flight there is b777 but for inbound its either A380 or A330

Well its been fun reading your comments! I'm Andy, the guy in the papers, the guy with the EK logo tattoo. For the record, I've been loyal to EK since 2005 and most of those upgrades happened before I got the logo on my arm, either from me spending my miles or Y class was full, lets stick the Gold member in J.. To the person who posted a link to my video, thanks, and to the follow-up poster who said I get paid thru advertising, I don't, because I used 3rd party music, I get nothing! so click away, enjoy Emirates First Class at its very best
Whatever you do, don't try out the BA forum, as you'd be savaged by that bunch of *%^$%^£%'s.

Great. My wish for my 16th was an op-up (no joke, seriously).
When I joined Zol said it was 16 so I relied on that for the past few months...
With the new "enhancement" I will only be making Silver this year. I doubt I'm getting anything anytime soon.
