This is about as close as you can get to having your own private jet. I don't understand the Emirates pricing system but we fly ATH-DXB-JNB and 1st class costs just 500€ more than business class return. There is a big difference in service and comfort in 1st.

Also on the A380 you have a bar to lean on The Emirates 1st Class lounge at DXB is outstanding. Proper restaurants not just a finger buffet.

Premier wines on board and in the DXB lounge.

Tip: Go easy on the champagne on boarding and taxi. The vintage is only opened after T/O. However they will insist on changing the ground champers for the airborne vintage once Biggles has the jet off the deck
