Absolutely still worth it, amazing premium product - flying business on an Emirates A380 is one of the greatest commercial aviation experiences on earth, and this particular plane isn't even one of their refurbished A380s (which have a four class layout between first, business, premium economy and economy, as well as updated features throughout first and business, for example much nicer seats/suite design than what's shown in this video. Between the food, cocktail/wine list, ambiance, onboard cocktail bar, overall comfort and onboard staff, it doesn't get much better. I was lucky enough to fly business on a refurbished Emirates A380 from New York to Dubai last June, and by far and away it was the greatest flight of my life. I liked it even better than Qatar's QSuite product (which is still absolutely incredible, btw.

Hello Traveler.
When I was a boy, in middle school, Grade 8, I flew on one of Eastern Airlines 1st generation A-300's.
(There is a famous photo in the Miami Herald Archives, of a derelict A-300, sitting on their backlot, doors open, collecting dust) After Eastern Airlines went down in flames.
Ok, so you flew Bali to Dubai. How did you get home, and then all the way to Tokyo and fly back to Brussels, or did you find a way to get to Tokyo first, THEN fly home
I was not sure when this Emirates flight took place (time frame) and the next one took off

Food looked yummy! Pillow looked plush! A good flight and a good night! Thankyou very much for listing your food choices. It helps!
The first time through on your video, I couldn't get any sound! And that made me realize how much I look forward to your music choices and how much they add to your story! Love it!
Personally, not a fan of Bvlgari. is it the same offering for women
Thank you for the very nice flight, dear LTE! See you next time!

This A380 is the high density 2 class layout that will get retrofitted to a 3 class layout by Nov26. I think it's their business class suites, old or new that are the weak point, OK by the window, not so great isle side that are so exposed and lack privacy. Many airlines now fit doors to their Business Suites. I wasn't very impressed with the menu selection. Otherwise, it looks like you had a great flight.

Yes, it is still worth the hype. I think passengers keep pushing up the bar, so keeping the standard is not really acceptable. Actually, I still feel that is a top airline.
By the way, the lounge is way more modernized than I expected, if the size are must larger, and more choice of food, that could be a really good lounge.
Thank you Expert! Always love A380 videos, of all different airlines.

One of the baddest Partner Lounge ever in Bali. No champaign, no really Service and the food wast that good. Its far away from the expected Emirates Standard when i pay over 4000 for a Ticket. Also the airport Service at the Gates fot BC was horrible. 5 Times Passport control. But anyway, we never visit Bali again.

economy class round trip Dubai to Bali around 3150 Dirham or 857$
same tip on business class 15860 AED or 4318$
first class is 31940 AED=8700$
If you have a choice between choosing spending the money on business class or spend the difference 3461$ on better hotels or better activities which would choose

Nice to know that even in Business Class they have an excellent series of wines available (the Jadot Fourchaume Chablis. great property, the Olivier Graves, and the Vietti Castiglione. Very close to the selections offered in the Suites class. That salmon tataki looked tasty. Emirates remains the gold standard.

Generally speaking, all Gulf airlines are good, especially Emirates, Etihad Airways, Qatar Airways, and Saudi Arabian Airlines. I believe that Riyadh Airlines might be a game-changer in developing the aviation sector in the Gulf region. Flynas is also one of the best regional airlines in the world.

Hi LTE. Amazing flight on an amazing aircraft. The A380 is still a gamechanger in the world of aviation. The aircraft plays well in busy high traffic airports where gate slots may be limited e. g. London Heathrow. Thank you for sharing your journey on the A380 with us.

I'm confused. The Caption reads 10A is my seat for the 9 hour flight to Bali. Earlier in the video it was stated that you are flying FROM Bali to Dubai.
Which is correct
I have never flown on a Airbus A380. My slogan is: If it's not Boeing, I'm not going.

I will never fly Emirates again. The last business flight was a nightmare. The crew was not friendly, the meal was cold, beverages were only served ones. And they did not care about anything. Flight was from Dubai to Germany in a Boeing.

I normally fly Emirates or Qatar and in a few weeks time I'm flying from Asia to Europe but I don't dare risk flying on any Middle Eastern airlines. Too much risk going through Doha or Dubai even with very low fares right now.

The business class in the Emirates A380 is still a solid product, but avoid the Emirates 777, the 777 is super noisy and most of the 777 still have the worst business class seats in the world, angled flat seats in a 2-3-2 layout

I LOVE Emirates. I’d much rather sit in the first cabin of Business Class seats. The second cabin seems too crowded for me. The service is great, seats are very comfortable, and the food is good. Safe travels.

We love flying with Emirates but never been on the A380. With the trouble in Middle East right now it's easier for us to fly Cathay Pacific. Hope everything settles down soon for the sake of the innocent

I really salute you for such an act of determination

The real time video was to dark to say if the A380 land outside the safety line. I guess it land inside the safety parameters, if not this will be for sure an accident landing

to me Emirates business class is a big let down, feels like 15 years ago and the service clearly lacked the quality and attentivness. poor training and random hiring.
