Hi everyone

Will be flying out from Glasgow on Monday to Shanghai (via DXB, ofcourse). The last few times i've traveled on the EK 028 to Dubai, it seems as if they've made somewhat of a habit in taking the aircraft to neighbouring city Sharjah - where the plane sits for 20 minutes and then the bus journey to the terminal takes another 35 minutes.

The above has happened for the last 2-3 times (in a row) over the past year and a half.

My question I guess is, has the situation improved re parking at the actual terminal? Am I right in saying that this flight, along with others, are 'always' on the list to get shafted out the city?

Thanks
