EK has a far better AVOD system.

Crediting miles to OW is a valuable benefit to flying with QR, if those sort of things matter.
EK seats DO NOT go flat, i tried them last week, and the seats are 2-3-2 which are way narrower than the 2-2-2 seats of QR. The cabin in QR feels much larger due to the fewer people per row and larger space between each row. EK is known to cram more people per plane to get more profit. Look into their economy seats whcih are torturous.

I prefer the simpler AVOD of QR than the ICE system.
