Yes, I have booked today for next August.
LHR>AUH Residence, AUH>BKK First, BKK>AUH Business (that's not going to be fun), AUH>LHR Residence.
Residence was +£1800 on the F ticket each way but it's a bucket list thing and I'll probably never do it again.
Weirdly the concerirge phoned me within an hour of the booking asking if I wanted a chaffeur, what time I wanted picking up and how many bags I will take. Bit premature 10 months out.
Also on the bucket list are Singapore, Starlux, JAL and Korean.
