Going back to the OP
I flew Emirates a couple of weeks ago and the airport is a disaster. Stairs not ready at the aircraft, which are parked in the arse end of nowhere, insufficient security checks open on arrival at the terminal, gates miles apart, etc.
Perhaps if they hadn't designed it as a massive duty free shop it might function a little better.
Cabin crew and in-flight top notch though.
