Emirates made their press release today:

Sorry, but this picture is the best publicity for me to avoid this carrier in the future (with whom I made several enjoyable C-Class-trips to India and to the far east).
I remember a report about Dubai in their onboard-magazine about two years ago: They wrote something like "if you feel disturbed about noisy cellphone-conversations, you won't be lucky in Dubai...". And indeed, it was really remarkably during my stop-over.

What about "quiet zones" on those airplanes? It was mentioned somewhere in the press, but EK doesn't mention it.

Hope LH and LX will never start this...
