i have flown c class and y class on EK several times now, mainly germany - dxb, and i would award EK with a "best airline marketing award"... they are constantly promoting themselves as best airline in the world which i cannot agree on (based on equipment and service). however, i.f.e. is great, makes cattle class seating a bit bearable...
dxb airport is nice though and EK offers good on-ground service and facilities.
