Icidentally, I and a fellow FT'er travelled on the 380 in First, we went to the bar, and asked them to bring up the Dom to the back, the crew obligued and treated some of the J passengers to our DOM - It was such a good trip...
From my experience it seems to be far harder to get an upgrade to Business availability using miles on the 380 than all other EK aircraft where an upgrade is generally always available.

Not sure if this is a deliberate Emirates policy or just that the 380 is so popular now.
