Probably a Far East airline would be a better comparison or maybe Qatar. Having said that maybe as Qatar is oneworld that might be the best choice. Cathay and Qatar good quality alternatives I think.
I deliberately limited my comments to how I saw the two programmes.

My only experience of Emirates' is in First; BA's First pales in comparison. It's no better than a really nice business class.

BA crews can be inconsistent. The best are very good indeed.
