Rumour has it that a J passenger who was refused PJ's :eek: decided to immortalise his displeasure in the shape of a theatrical production .......

Emirates Amenity Bag
 
I have recently completed a flight from LHR to HKG via Dubai. The LHR to DXB left at at 13:35 and the flight from DXB to HKG left at 03:20 - both were on an A380 in business class

We were only given an amenity bag on the DXB to HKG leg since this was a night flight. Evidently amenity bags are not given on day flights.

Can anyone explain the thinking behind this ? Just curious

I prefer to get a good amenity bag (like EK) on night flights only, rather than a miserable one on all flights.
Since September, they are not all the same, which adds excitement (:rolleyes:) .

I understand that EK first-time flyers may be disappointed if they didn't know the "rule".

On F day-flights, it is "on request" basis.

As eternaltransit says : Simples. All comes down to dollars & cents in the end.

Like so much else in this world ...... :o

Recently on DXB-MAN daylight flight in F and asked for and got amenity kit and PJs.
Loved the little EK hessian bag they also provided for the kit.
Yes the kit does vary on different flights - which makes for some variety.

Didn't realise you could take the bag with you!!!!! I agree - they are great and would make super beach bags!

?? You thought the bag was only to bring PJ + kit to your seat ??
I prefer when they bring them on a silver plate, the same one used to distribute DomPe glass. It gives far more importance to the PJ :D:D:D

Did you notice that the bags smell mold ? Isn't it because they are stored in some humid place ?
Anyway, the smell disappears once you leave the bag in the open long enough.

Now drop the feigned interest in amenity kits & associated stuff ioto :D

I know you lost your enthusiasm/excitement re such things long ago (much like myself, TBH.....!)

Busted indeed !

(oh and I meant to add that you're going to get a lot of EK newbies edgy, with your reference to bags being stored in "some humid place ..." :eek:)

Are amenity kits available in First Class (if requested?) even on shorter sectors, for example DXB-DEL? Thanks.
