This morning arriving into Dubai in First was offered a Volvo to take me home, of course this was politely declined and I told them I would wait a few minutes for the Merc.
The look on the guys face was priceless when I told him I would rather wait a few minutes for a better car.
What has Dubai done to me, before I arrived I was happy in a local taxi, now it has to be an E class as a minimum...haha

The volvos are very tired though, there are a few new silver ones though.

Oh, and another thing. Stop upsetting hard-working CD drivers at DXB

Perhaps I need to travel with some other airlines for a while for me to appreciate what I have!
@strike - You get the S class at LHR, being a big guy, I find the seats very uncomfortable and end up sitting side on for most of the journey.

Although.......I suggest you might want to avoid Lufthansa ....just in case it leads to yet more first world problems/anxieties, as you wonder why EK don't match up to LH's car-to-aircraft service, dedicated personal airport assistant, exclusive F-only terminal ....etc etc ....
(best stop there in case I get accused of advertising ....)

The worst is when you troll through flyertalk and find out all these great things and when you get to the car its a C class, so you become unhappy and don't enjoy the journey as you know what you could of got .....
