........
Also the welcome basket has to be removed before takeoff and is restocked before they bring it back so if there is anything you particularly like you can remove it before then. The hydration tabs are always a good one and depending where you fly there can be spicy thai mix, Himalayan salt popcorn or roasted fruit mix.
There's always Lindt chocolate too

By the way, I find the F service on the 77W generally better than on the A380 (apart from the time there were only two of us in F, one in 1A - clearly a newly as you don't choose 1A or 1K if you have the choice) and myself in 2K).

You forgot the Lakrids! My favourite item in the snack basket. On my last F flight, I mentioned this to the FA, and also that the Lakrids provided were not my favourite flavour (bronze). A bit later she came back with 4 boxes of them!

The fizzy vitamin tablets are actually pretty good too, great in water or a DIY gin fizz while in hotel.
There is also the Autin Powers bus ride for just F class with disco purple lighting if land away from the terminal to experience.

Another quick question -
My DEL -> DXB -> LAX flight entitles me to Dubai connect. My nationality is one that gets a 30 day visa on arrival. Does that mean that all I need to do is to proceed through immigration as normal and then turn up to the Dubai connect desks at DXB? I don't think I need to apply for a visa in advance. Will DEL issue me my hotel voucher? Will I be given a room at the JW Marriott Marquis Dubai ?
Many thanks!

F/J passengers are either at the Marriott or Le Meridien. You dont get to choose. I prefer Le Meridien as it is closer to the airport and less busy, but thats down to personal taste.

Vouchers are issued at origin, so at DEL. DC desks in Dubai are before immigration. No need to apply for visas, but there should be an option to apply in MMB if you choose. If any visas are required, it takes minutes at the DC desk.

Yes, after DC desk and immigration, youll be directed to the chauffeur desk and chauffeur to and from hotel arranged. In J, sometimes its a shared van, in F its usually a dedicated car. You can negotiate pick-up time at the chauffeur desk. Theyre usually fine with earlier pick-ups (and another reason to prefer Le Meridien, as it is much, much closer to the airport).
