Emirates has unveiled the new first class cabin for their 777s at the Dubai Air Show on November 12th, 2017.

Notably, the new F cabin is fully enclosed from floor to ceiling, has a reduction from 8 seats to 6 total, had virtual windows for the center cabins and features video-based room service ordering.

Business and Economy cabins have also been refreshed, but not completely overhauled.

I think the OP amended their post, so withdrawing my remark. Can’t work out how to delete. 🙂

I just got done on a trip that involved two legs in the new F (JFK-DXB and back on DXB-JFK). No question in my mind this is the best first class product out there. It lived up to the hype and surpassed it in many ways.

i was curious about the temperature control feature of the new F..... what I have read elsewhere is that at best you can lower the temp only to what the temp is in the cabin, but you can control the temp to something higher. In your experience, did you find the cabin temp any cooler than you might have experienced on other flights.... hence you have the ability to set your suite temp to something + or minus to what you would normally expect to find on a flight.

Second inquiry.... how would you rate the seat when in lie flat setting.... and did you find the gravity free setting on the seat to be any more comfortable than you might experience in any other first class seat.

I found the temperature got cool when I put it to the lowest setting and very warm on the highest one. There are multiple air vents in each suite. It was a terrific feature. The “zero gravity” name feels like a stretch but I did find it very comfortable. I did think it was more comfortable than the traditional first class.

With LHR off the schedule for February, can anyone tell if that frame has been deployed elsewhere?

Yes it is.

And also MAN-DXB.

I stand corrected. They had zeroed out inventory for the entire month and added EK002 back
