Quote: JB Down Under "Emirates is best airline and Dubai airport is pretty good for duty free stuff, cameras are pretty good price. Don't worry about films, they have movies on demand and a massive catalogue to choose from. My tips, buy some BOSE noise cancelling headphones (over the ear type) not cheap but worth every cent, especially if you get sat near kids or a snorer! 5 vodka and cokes in first hour then headphones on, eye mask on, blanket over head and sleep until you land in Dubai 10 hours later. Coffee and egg sarnie at the coffee bean in airport (ok to use credit card to save getting Emirates money), on to next leg, couple of beers, settle in for a movie marathon and time for at least 3 films!'"
Singapore Airlines is better and I have a relative who works first class on Emirates.
