No question here is dumb! This forum exists to help people with questions exactly like yours.

What you're planning to wear is perfectly fine and you will fit right in. I have occasionally been in F wearing short pants, tee shirt and boots (with socks!), looking like a genuine dweeb, and I have never been admonished, questioned or looked at twice by anyone.

Occasionally I see men my age and above who like wearing a suit and tie. And their female companions dressed up as well. Clearly retired people who prefer to dress that way. It's their choice, they obviously feel more comfortable dressed in their finery. If you see an F passenger like that, do not feel under-dressed!

The dress code is fairly broad, but I personally would not wear sandals or have bare feet. I don't feel comfortable with that, although I often do see sandals on passengers in F!

Enjoy the flight!

That’s fine. No ‘requirements’ as such. I think swimming attire would be frowned upon and there are obviously ‘decency’ rules.
You’ll get pyjamas anyway and many people wear these throughout the flight.

Does the Caviar ever run out?.

Emirates has started to cater more caviar in F on their flights, so while it has run out in the past, it's less likely to do so in the future.

About a month ago, I had just finished my caviar course when the cabin supervisor arrived at my side and said: “I believe you asked for some more caviar sir” and offered me another tin. I responded that I had not asked for a second helping but that I would be happy to take it off him if he could also organise some more blinis and another shot of vodka. He was happy to oblige.
So no sign of running out on that flight…..

I’m not sure that OMAT story is actually true.
Like any catering (or other) item, caviar supplies could possibly run out on any flight, however, in 20+ years of flying EK, I’ve never had a problem of getting a second or double portion. More often than not, I’ve seen crew counting surplus, closed, tins before descent.

Don't wear a suit, that's the attire of people who have never been on a long-haul flight before... :D

Can you pre-reserve free spa treatments in the DXB lounge
Do they offer the same swag on shorter flights within the Middle East? Im on a 2.5 hour DXB-AMM in F and would love a second set of goodies:)

Don't wear flip flops. In the unlikely event of a serious incident during take off or landing, the last thing you want on your feet are a pair of flip flops. Wear trainers or shoes and, once at altitude, use the freebie slippers if more comfortable.

I am always flabbergasted at the lack of foresight so many passengers have (across all classes) that they could possibly think flip flops are sensible footwear in an emergency.

Yes and yes, but no point in reserving spa treatments, there's usually no problem in getting one apart from at around 0600/0700 where there may be a wait. Sometimes an issue around 0100.

Personally guilty of being a staunchly sandals based flyer, trying to think why flip flops would be an issue? Not trying to be a smart ..., genuinely curious.

Cutting your feet, bumping or crushing them in the rush, outside may be very cold, or very hot (e.g, you have to go past fire), no grip on escape surfaces or evacuation routes (e.g. mud), that kind of thing.

I certainly hope you don't wear flip flops on the beach given they will seriously hinder your escape in event of a tsunami, which kill an awful lot more people than plane crashes. When in an earthquake affected zone do you always have a bag prepared with the recommended items you can easily get to (obviously you will know what these items are).

I have no problem with your suggestion as advice for particularly risk averse people, just the needless criticism of people's lack of foresight. People don't spend every minute of their lives preparing for the worst possible thing that could go wrong. To do so is actually very unhealthy and poses far more threat to a long life than wearing flip flops on a plane. Given how afraid people are of flying, many will not want to spend extra time actively thinking about the worst possible scenario.

You've probably never considered the Tsunami example, but it is a good way to show how ridiculous it is to suggest people are being wreckless wearing flip flops on a plane. I doubt there's even a confirmed case in the history of aviation of flip flops leading to someone being unable to escape.

Something to think about next time you condescend to others, always consider there are probably other things they know far more about that than you where they would be flabbergasted by your behaviour.

P.s I don't wear flip flops purely as I wouldn't find them comfortable, I'm just perplexed by how some people expect everyone to behave as if their plane will crash they don't do in other areas of life.

Your comically incorrect spelling of 'reckless' creates a humorous addition to your discourse.

I think you're being needlessly critical. Clearly in the extremely unlikely event of needing to escape a burning aeroplane, such footwear will definitely be inappropriate.

You clearly assume the chances of needing to escape a burning aeroplane are vanishingly small and choose not to allow for that possibility. Others choose to be prepared regardless of how unlikely the event. It is their choice, and they do not deserve your judgement.

Equally, they should respect your assumption that it is too unlikely to happen.

But remember, assumption is the mother of all FUs.

Apologies to moderators for continuing an off-topic discussion.

contrary to your belief some fas actually appreciate a suite instead of shorts , I'm not going down the road of dressing well gets you upgraded but some of the European fas have more respect and can get better service depending on the dress
