Emirates review by Chi 2016-02-01

Flying from hong kong to dubai took 10and a half hours when it should have taken 7. I missed my connecting flight by 25 minutes. I was given another flight and had to wait 7 hours. When i was onboard i was so tired i fell asleep during flight. When food was served i was woken up and so i said i did not want dinner. The air hostess remarked that is it my intentions not to be disturbed and that i should have a sticker to stick on the seat. I said sorry i didnt realise. After a while i woke up, but however i was not given food or offer a drink again throughout the whole 8 hour transfer flight back to Birmingham. Thanks Emirates for making me delayed for 7 hours sleeping in the airport lounge and also have touchy air stewardess who dont consider flyers might be just tired and not grumpy when they first decline food service. It doesnt mean they dont want refreshment all through the flight EDITORS COMMENT: Unfortunately in Economy with so many passengers the cabin crew simply can't serve food around passengers sleeping times. If you are asleep and want the meal later that's not going to happen as they are not allowed to reheat a meal for food safety reasons.
