Emirates recently started 77W Game Changer service on one of its 3 daily Melbourne flights and we were fortunate to find seats on tonight’s flight to Dubai. Emirates Game Changer features a gorgeous 6 suite First Class cabin with the ultimate in comfort and privacy… floor to ceiling doors, in suite temperature and lighting controls and a video call button to our flight attendants. Wonderful service, great food and fabulous wines of this fantastic 15 hour flight to Dubai.
My favorite seat on any airline, anywhere.
Off to bed right after take-off.
After nearly 7 wonderful hours of sleep, time to eat and drink.
Tonight's menu...
Showtime
Refreshing Grilled artichoke and fennel salad.
Spectacular Grilled Patagonian toothfish
Just love this cabin.
We arrived early in Dubai and were relegated to a tarmac position. But it's not too bad when you get a private bus for just 3 passengers.
Cool Skywards 25th anniversary livery.
