The J bar on the EK A380 is of no good to me altleast as I fly for business only atleast 93%. The only thing that attracts me to it is the shower as on a LH or ULH flight its a boon if you have to go out of the airport straight to work or for a night out. The service in F on the EK A380 is actually a disaster almost all the times. Never understood why SQ get it right 101%. But EK misses this big time on the whale jet & yes we are talking about F here & not J.
Could you explain what you mean by the suites on the 380 and 345? I have only been in a 777 suite, but I have an upcoming sector on a 345, but it is only DXB-BEY.
