On the other hand DXB-CGK is status light. I've flown DXB-BKK a few times and always managed an op up although a quick glance at the manifest showed tons of golds
I think it really depends on when you fly. During summer/Christmas, I've had almost 100% op-ups on SIN-DXB.
In the past, DXB-KUL/HKG have been pretty light on Golds, but this may well be changing due to the increase of EK's presence in these markets over the last 2-3 years. I've also found EK's US destinations (other than JFK) to be pretty Gold light, but this may again be changing as EK becomes more established in the US market.
