Too true...

If you judge EK based on Y expectations, my guess is it's really up there. Don't get me wrong, there ARE other Y products better then EK. But if you measure based on price vs comfort, it really is a good product.

If you choose to fly EK more often, you will notice that FAs may not always be as nice as your first flight. Also the food is dependent on outbound flight location (I've had some really nasty ones), but the drink choices are very good. As for the ICE... hands down the best I've ever seen (or heard about).

Hope you enjoy your next flight.
