RaTa -
Where would I rather slip??
Jumeirah Beach Hotel, mate.
Can someone please give me a reasonable answer as to why, if EK are able to fill 777-300s into Sydney (which from first-hand experience they are), Melbourne and Perth (carrying LOTS of Aussies between London and Australia), the Rat isn't going there? Surely taking the 767 which was running up to BOM & extending it onto DXB wouldn't hurt??
How about a 744 direct SYD-DXB, meeting up with a BA 777 with a code-share for both the whole way?
