its interesting airlines have expensive champagne, but not expensive liquor, even though liquor lasts (after opening)

maybe liquors arent bought in bulk as much, so dont offer the same kind of bulk discounts champagnes do

Had the pleasure of flying business on the Emirates 380 from Auckland to Sydney. The bar is fantastic. Like a private lounge. Beats anything else I've ever seen aloft.

I agree. I wish they had some nicer American whiskies on board. (Although I did have some pretty tasty Cognac in SQ Suites.)

Loved the XO brandy on SQ the only time I flew first :)

EK has Hennessey Paradis ($500-$600 US a bottle) on their A380 flights. I like cognac, so I'll definitely be having a glass or three.

LH has Johnny Blue but no in-flight lounge. EK also has Johnny Blue and the big lounge in back is for F and J. They also have a bar area in front by the showers for F only which is stocked with Dom, Paradis, Johnny Blue and all the rest. I suggest being served in your suite though, don't bother with the lounge or bar :)
