We were waiting next to the gate at the area they rope off for first/business/status passengers when the gate staff approached us told us `y was overbooked` and upgraded us at the gate.
It was a lucky ticket, as this was the return leg of a December flight from Rome to Kansai that saw a J to F upgrade on the A380 on the FCO-DXB leg.
2 upgrades on 4 legs is pretty good going, Emirates have been very good to us.
