First Class Emirates & Airfrance CDG-SIN $5500
I was hesitant to post this but considering at this price you usually can't even get a business class ticket, I thought a RT first class ticket, on Emirates nonetheless, was worth posting.
CDG-SIN either non stop on AF or via DXB on EK for $5500.00. I don't have to tell anyone what a spectacular first class cabin EK has. You can also do F one way and J the other for $3600.00.
AF is non-stop on a 773 and EK is a A380 + another A380 or 773. There are only like 3 or 4 EK non stops from DXB to SIN.
Its tempting, very tempting.... Dates were good for January and February, I am sure there are more dates just that the vodka is kicking in and its time for bed. With that, I leave you with this...

AF 777 F cabin
Thanks for the post.
AF offers this flight at a discount time to time, so thank you for the update.
The AF cabin is 1-2-1 with only 4 seats in F so this config is truly exclusive.
There is a curtain that can be close around the seat , very elegant. At CDG AF offers a unique experience
A much as I enjoy EK first, I have grown tired of transiting DXB. I like the first class lounge, but everything is very large and spread out. AF in SIN and CDG delivers a very exclusive experience for its First class customers. Give it a try!

Honestly, I am not impressed any more with EK First class product. I think they need to re-fresh it ASAP or they will start losing loyal customers.
As for AF F I would pick it immediately at this competitive price @:-)

Agree with SFO777, AF is the superior choice in most every respect. And that is a GREAT price. I like the shower on the EK A380, and the bar, etc. But the AF ground experience and privacy at the seat make the difference.

On AF website, if you select business class for your search, you will have F options displayed as well when available. So you should be able to mix F and J on AF, but only for round trip or multidestination back to country of origin of max 2 segments usually.

Thanks for the clarification - didn't think about researching in J! I'll delete the earlier post to eliminate the confusion.
