Emirates review by Max 2016-09-09

Safety concerns throughout 4 x long haul legs (ADL to MUC rtn via DXB) at Emirates cabin crew reluctance/ inability/ fear to enforce safety regulations in pax of middle eastern appearance. Whether it be: fasten seat belts, window blinds, seat backs, electronic devices, movement when seat belt sign illuminated, sitting in allocated seats, etc - all were consistently and flagrantly ignored. Second was injudicious abuse of illuminating fasten seat belt for hours on end with little to no turbulence evident while Emirates cabin crew either continued trolley service and ignored certain pax moving freely or they themselves took crew rest involving moving freely in sleepwear (t-shirts marked "crew"). Cabin crew responses: "We're allowed to continue to serve", "We're insured to move about", "There's nothing we can do to stop them (pax) moving about". Seriously.
