Rumour has it that a J passenger who was refused PJ's
decided to immortalise his displeasure in the shape of a theatrical production .......http://www.dresscircle.com/rare-post...107056776.html

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 (
) .
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.

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!

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