For the past few years we have traveled US with United and just the thought of getting on a plane and someone reclining into my lap as they did last year is a scary thought with 4 long flights.

We can choose to have a 2+hour or 3+hour change at Dubai on the way out, is it worth the longer one to experience the Business Lounge? might be the only time we get to do this, we are thinking of the 2pm flight from Manchester. We are also undecided whether to spend a day in Dubai!! travelling in August and maybe not the best time to be rushing about. We do want to see it but we don`t if that makes sense? (we are having a week in Bangkok and week in Singapore).

All the 4 flights seem to be on 380`s, if the flights were not full would Emirates put on smaller planes or do they just fly what you book? Would be gutted if they did swap, but need to be prepared just in case.

Thanks again, your advice and help is really appreciated.
