I do worry when I see words like 'hype' used by anyone unfamiliar with Emirates, if only because it makes me wonder a) what exactly has been heard/read and b) what exactly is expected ....!

In short I would echo jackiedada's comments above : it's a welcome opportunity to sample the product, at what seems a good price, but just don't set the bar too high.

Hopefully you can come back with some positive feedback, and you will see it as money well-spent.

Have a good trip ^
