The Best EK Lounge Poll
I only get to see the same old lounges due to my regular shuttles between SIN and MEL and AKL. However, I have been to many others. I really like LHR, BNE, BKK. And FRA. KUL is not great. JFK would be one of the best.
I cant wait until the new concourse is open in 2013 in DXB. Although the secret to DXB now is entering via the small stairway beside Starbucks - that newly renovated section of the lounge feels completely different to the rest of the place.
Be interested to see what others think...what's your favourite lounge in EK network...?

Because I didn't want to be accused of being "elitist" 
You had the option under "other" !!!!

I selected "other" and am posting as suggested - For me the DXB F Lounge without a doubt. As for the rest of the network generally, even though it is usually pretty packed out, I do like the food and other offerings in the CDG lounge best of all - I stock up on my EK toothpicks there which I have not found in any other of their lounges.

I find the outstation lounges are all too similar (except perhaps in capacity and cuisine) and that they are all generally a bit dated instead of looking swanky. Service however is excellent. Difficult, then, to choose a favorite, but perhaps SIN just because I'm there most often.

Only been to JFK and DXB and I would choose JFK - though DXB would be my first choice better if it was less crowded, I guess.
In any case, as a student it will be rare for me to fly anything other than Y.

EK's Dubai lounge in F is average. Main J lounge (horrible) ..........
Some of their other lounges are overall a better experience. JNB is very good. JFK is good. Munich is very good also. So too the Heathrow lounge.........
