Terminal 2 is a ****ing disaster for a fully loaded A380 to land at. Tin pot shit show of a terminal.

Don't worry scamp. The A380 won't be around for much longer.

Terrifying thought. I fit in the A380 seats nicely and there's two in economy in the front section that are just superb. 777's just don't have the leg room.
And no....before the who's got the biggest dick parade starts, I don't often pay for bizzo because I'm not a ****.

Obviously can still get between the two, via proxy countries. I wonder if Eurostar is going at the moment, that could be fun. Or KLM fly into Southampton, closer to Mothers.
People need to travel for a multitude of reasons so shutting the flights when you can still make the journey is dumb.

Yeah. Which is why they're using T2, which is crap.

No flights to Saudi from UAE now either, which has just messed me up as I was due to fly back on Saturday. Just forked out for a one way via Doha.

Or were you going from home to Dubai to Saudi?
It's a ****ing disastrous bit of news, we're busy trying to get people back in Kingdom and new joiners in. I might book a two week holiday and hide from it all.

You in the UAE now? You'll have to do 14 days somewhere else first?

With my family in Thailand, but was transiting through Dubai. Lucky for me Qatar flights are up and running because my other option was 14 days in Bahrain. Nice as that maybe, 3 days is enough for me there and I've just had 9 weeks off work. £400 for a one way ticket not the end of the world so just have to suck it up.
