With all due respect you can knock Trump all you want, but the fact is America’s economy is at its highest stock market ever. Unemployment is at its lowest. Unemployment among minorities is at it’s all time lowest. He’s gotten North Korea to stop holding the world hostage. You can hate Trump all you want, but actions speak for themselves.
Back on what we’re talking about, I just took a LHR-PHX flight in BA F and could not believe how bad the in-flight service and seats were. The FA’s were really nice, but the food for a 10+ hour flight was so bad. I woke up over northern canada and they had no food to serve and no snacks. I couldn’t believe it. I would’ve rather taken a mainland Chinese carrier in J at a 2x2x2 configuration. Everything was better, specifically I’m talking about Hainan. Yet Brits continue to defend BA like it’s some unique exquisite experience. It’s not and I could never wrap my head around why Brits take criticism of their airline so personal.

Also, surprising to see BA bashing going on in Emirates forum. BA forum reached its quota of posts so now people using Emirates forum ?

I've not made an EK booking/change over the phone for a long time. Do they have the facility where you actually enter you CC details "offline" via the keypad on your phone? This is what EasyJet do. So, it's probably more secure than online, as there is no chance for anybody to "snoop".

Please enlighten me, whatever for??? If financial gain could surely be had, please expand. I am starting to see true wisdom is beginning to flow from "Emirates Ambassadors". Wow, how much have I been missing by not posting more?
All I did was make a personal preference statement regarding seat configurations. My oh my. As far as I'm concerned, A380 business class is hard to beat.
First class experiences have been excellent. Hard product is starting to feel a bit dated, but the FAs have always been gracious and attentive to details. Only once I have a defective IFE screen. Was unable to move to a different seat due to a full cabin. Thought about suing over it! However, after a few attempts by the FAs to reset it, I went off to sleep. Imagine that.

The thread is no longer adding any benefit to the forum.
There has has already been a couple of pleas to stay on topic and removal of posts.
Time for closing up.
