Also if enjoy your vino there are numerous bottles to choose from in lounges so worth a look.

The amount of amenities given in flight are also bonkers if used to BA. The Emirates shopping bag is as much so can take anything want with you.
If like whisky definitely try the Dalmore. The movie popcorn is also a nice touch.
The Emirates dates are ridiculously moorish as are the chocolates they give you to take away.

The in flight shower on A380 can be a bit of a gimmick but worth a try for the experience.

All-in-all it is a great experience have done many times.

J is probably almost an F on many other airlines.

In DXB there is a free 15 min massage if in F flounge. It is a basic thing but passes time and can be relaxing.

My one big recommendation is remember to put some praise feedback in for the staff as they genuinely do work socks off, as do many CC so good to get them some plaudits.

Enjoy your flights and checkout that Skywards has artner airlines can spend on too.

Lastly I know others mentioned food but never had a bad meal with EK tbh.

The front desk will say if can board directly via the lounge
