EK F: BKK to HKG 668
Saw this on the German FT VFT and decided to share it here... Not 100% sure of the value as it's a short flight (just over €100 per block hour). Prices higher ex-HKG
Can get it a bit cheaper on obscure OTAs... This Fifth Freedom flight was popular back in the day but stopped around late 2017. Flights are on the 380 so two showers at 38,000...

As of NOW those are the options, but pre-Covid EK had lounges in HKG and BKK. I picked dates in August, one could hope?/pray? that they would reopen by then...

Ive also just read the following on a blog, not sure how accurate this is?!:
- Bangkok-Hong Kong: Interestingly, this is one of the few routes that operate a 2-class configuration Airbus A380. This means that there is no first-class onboard. This flight is three hours long in duration.

Flew twice on Business Class. I can confirm that it was a high density A380. Business class was on the back of the Upper Deck and there was no F. These planes feature the redesigned bar, which was open. Food was a single tray affair.. nothing memorable but more than OK.

You can check what is offered on the Emirates website using the 'What's on your flight" option - currently menus are available for December. A three course meal is offered in both directions with a full bar service. It's a three hour flight so there is sufficient time for a full meal. I haven't flown this sector so can't say if they cut corners with the service.
