Emirates review by G 2015-07-14

Travelled LYS-DXB-BOM and back. A very average experience. The 3-4-3 seating arrangement on their Boeing 777s is cramped, but ok for 6-8 hour flights. The cabin crew were quite professional. The same cannot be said about the ground staff at BOM and DXB, most of whom think they have won a lottery and that everyone is their slave. I had ordered and was served the Asian Vegetarian meal on all four legs, but was shocked to see the bad quality of the food. It is surprising a Dubai based airline can't get Indian food right. The transit at DXB was ok. It is a well maintained airport with a good choice of food and shopping. Emirates flights are quite notorious for their delays, particularly if the departure from Dubai is in the mornings or afternoons. So I would advice anyone making connections to be wary of this. I will recommend this airline for no reason other than their low fares.
