The EK network ex DXB into Europe is just plain scary - Into all major European capitols, and into places like Nice, and Birmingham, Manchester, Heathrow and Gatwick and it just goes on and on.

Birmingham is a beauty. 45 minute connection time - EI DUB BHX and then EK with 45 minute minima - I avoid that and put them back a flight but it is there if needed.

I have a fair idea that the industry as a whole has no idea what a juggernaut EK actually is. We are finding that it is prudent to sell them more often than not. Price and schedule.

Time will tell of those who fell and who was left behind.

Best all
