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
Correct me if I'm wrong. I understand your question is that you've diverted to SHJ the last couple of times you've been on EK028 due to 'overcrowding' at DXB?
I've have never heard of this occurring. (The aircraft diverting to SHJ). Even if a flight was carrying SHJ as an alternate into DXB, though it would be highly unlikely that they would, mainly due to the fact the airfields are so close, any weather in DXB is most likely going to affect SHJ as well.
