The line dragons make sure you can't use the Business Class line either if you are in Econ. Another useless benefit.

The big benefit of course is in Dubai though where Gold can use the Business Class area and Silver has its own dedicated area also. You cannot use the Silver area as a Gold though (which I found out to my detriment once) - you have to use either the Business Class area or the general lines.

I think they got it wrong, the benifits clearly says "At the rest of the Emirates destinations( including Terminal 1, Dubai), when flying Emirates, you can check in at the Business Class counter regardless of your class of travel. Simply present your Skywards Gold or Silver membership card at the counter."
