Emirates set to slash fares to fill A380s

Re: Emirates set to slash fares to fill A380s
Hmm, I wouldn't go as far as saying EK is heads above BA - the problem with EK is the inconsistency. When you get a very bad EK crew, you really know about it.
I'd rather fly EK First but BA Business, and you can often get BA Premium Economy for not much more than Emirates Economy. They say the new Premium Economy is already on the Dubai route but I've yet to see it...
Also, Skywards has started to really suck.

Emirates seems to have a decent reputation with most people so they must lean towards to good rather than average or bad...however, I'm sure if/when I have a bad flight I'll be moaning like a bitch.

The Skywards programme is far less generous than it used to be.

You get better rewards with Qatar Airways now than with Emirates and that's saying something as Q.A's Privilege Club is also shite.

Emirates, the biggest international airline, said it will combat a profit squeeze from higher fuel costs by slashing fares to fill its 500-seat Airbus A380s, heightening competition for Air France-KLM and British Airways.
