As NZ*G I would rather fly NZ, I can use RU and OneSlut to bid for upgrades.

I've never flown EK, I have flown NZ1/2 in Y.

How do the two compare?

If I want the NZ flight I will have to pay the fare difference out of my pocket ($900). Is NZ Y vs EK Y worth $900?
As far as EK is concerned, if you're flying direct to Glasgow from Dubai, it's a 777, if it's all A380 then it must be doing to London and then a domestic transfer.

EK on the Dubai-Glasgow leg in a 777 is variable, I used to fly the route every month or two and never had two flights the same.
