Thanks both. I'm expecting a DP-fueled haze! Good point about leaving the airport, although we might need some zzzs since we'll be driving for 4 hours and then flying ZQN-AKL-BNE-DXB straight through.
We'll make use of the bar, get showers on all the A380 sectors and have a decent meal (or two) in the lounge as well as a spa treatment.
I've booked 1E/F all the way but might change them on the return sectors. It looks like the flights are not too busy in any case.
Just to clarify, the A380s will be Concourse A, right? Are the DUB flights likely then to be Concourse B? And is it worth it/possible to use the A lounge when departing from B? And is there much difference between lounges?
Thanks again,
BC
