Oh! It says fIttest.

Emirates was pretty poor. Food was mediocre at best, timings for meals were rubbish, especially on the way back. The staff were OK, mostly. Then there was the farce with the plane parking in Mirdiff and us having to wait for ages for a bus. It took an hour to get to the terminal.

And if you were on a 777 then you'd be delighted with the width of your seat.

No gate? I thought that was just a deliberate ploy to piss Virgin passengers off!!

It was an A330 out and a B777 back. Not the most comfy seat I've ever sat on. Managed 4 hours sleep going there, but only 1 (if that) coming back, but that was more to do with them making us wait nearly 3 hours for food and turning the lights off.
