First class seating
 
Hi,
I will soon be flying Emirates LGW to DXB in first class for the first time. I believe a 777-200 is used on the route. I currently have asked for 3 seats in the last row of first with the business bulkhead behind. Does anyone know if this is the best thing to do on the 777-200 or should I try and change the seat allocation. Do the seats have full recline with the bulkhead behind? Any views on the best seats in first would be appreciated.
After spending a small fortune of my own money on this trip I want to make the most of it. Any other tips about DXB appreciated too.

If you're going London to Dubai, fly from Heathrow instead and take the 77W, better first class seats. As it is Emirates first class, you can use their complimentary chauffeur pickup service to get there. Just make sure you are on the 77W flights. Some LHR flights use the A332.

The 777-200's also have the new First class seats, so he should be OK.

Cheers,

Sadly the use of the 77W on the LHR flights has been delayed (see the sticky), so the 777-200 is the best plane flying ex LON. Row 1 and Row 2 dont have much of a difference, as in both rows, the seats become "flat".

Cheers
