I have had 3 EK F flights out of MEL this year, and the ticket prices have been much the same as they were pre-COVID. I question whether these price hikes are happening equally in all classes.

Qantas on the other hand is well known for ripping off all classes alike whilst offering a distinctly inferior service, judging by the incessant complaints online and elsewhere. Why anyone flies the crippled Q, I will never understand. A change is definitely needed at the top executive level to hopefully bring the corporate culture back to what it was. But I'm not holding my breath. Anyway, I haven't flown them for 15 years and never will again so I don't really care.

Emirates is far too good an airline to be associated with a trashy, unruly mob like Qantas. I speak only of the executive level, not those at the coal face.

I would some the same about cooperation with Flydubai. nothing to compare with economy class in Emirates.
I understand need to cooperate on shorter flights, not operated by Emirates..but e.g. WAW-DXB, almost 6hrs.
This is route operated by both Emirates and Flydubai.
Some people actually could get confused.
I do hope Emirates will never stop operating this route, being fully replaced by Flydubai...

Actually Flydubai tickets from Warsaw could be more expensive then Emirates, on the same day. (Flydubai departs in the evening, Emirates in the afternoon)
No idea who pay more for Flydubai then Emirates...

Was that for Oz or Birmingham?

Flights from Sydney must be overbooked, there's no seats free. Hard to believe they're not turning people away.

Any news on BHX back to 380 on the lunchtime / EK40 service?

​​​​​​​It was in the system showing 380 from July but has since been removed.
