In my opinion EK first is always worth spending points on regardless of "cabin". In this case it would appear to be a 380, in which case even more so..

The best way to use miles is for upgrades from business to first. And especially for itineraries that pass through but do not start or end in DXB, in order words multi-leg trips like JNB/DXB/AMS. As for cash tickets, use of miles is notoriously poor on DXB O/D flights.

First time flying EK F BLR-DXB on 777 and had a few questions:
1) these will be the older suites, correct?
2) are there any restrictions to service or features given its a shorter 4hr flight? (i.e. no shower access, or lack of an unlimited item)
3) any other tips would be appreciated
Thanks!

You can choose when you want that meal to be served. But on a short haul flight, I guess the flexibility is a bit limited.
