EK384
Route: BKK-HKG Scheduled Departure: 13:45 Actual Departure: 17:30 Scheduled Arrive: 17:45 Actual Arrive: 21:30 Carrier: EK Equipment: A388 Seat: 11k Class: J Trip report video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fse4w74WjUo 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. http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020344551.jpg http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020117091.jpg http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020031003.jpg http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020035571.jpg http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020035572.jpg http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020031001.jpg 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. http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020512551.jpg http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020550121.jpg http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020550122.jpg http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020555281.jpg Pre-departure refreshment http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020555282.jpg The flight was further delayed as three passengers were a no show and their luggage had to be unloaded. http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020624221.jpg http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020714101.jpg http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020714103.jpg Time for meal service http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020743191.jpg http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020750091.jpg http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020807271.jpg Main course: beef http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020807272.jpg http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020931223.jpg http://i1233.photobucket.com/albums/...6020931224.jpg 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. |
Thanks for the report! I travelled on this exact route a year ago, exact same seat as you 11K. I did notice that the window panels are covered in faux wood, is that a new thing with EK?
