Let's see...
DXB-MLE-DXB in F, eightblack has already described why.
CMB-SIN in Y after four F sectors - empty flight, excellent recognition by the crew.
DXB-BLR in Y (in the middle of several * alliance F sectors) - the crew member working my aisle took extra special care of me
I still have one more EK flight left for the year... And then 3 flights in the first three days of the new year!
