FlyDubai business class is really great, especially if you get the single seat row, with no one next to you and a nice surface on either side to park your laptop and items. Also, a much faster trip through DXB T2 (the smallest terminal at DXB) and a dedicated business class boarding gate just adds to the convenience and speed for business commutes.
a fact no one know : emirates is changing the configuration of one of its a380 where the lower deck is gonna be full economy, and the upper deck is going to be full premium economy (my dads an emirates engineer :)
Great video! I wish you mentioned the different seating configurations of their aircrafts cause despite being just two types, the seat configurations vary.
My suggestion for Emirates: Retrofit all A380s with new first, business and premium economy seats. Convert the existing order of 787-9s to 25 777-9s and 10 777-8s. Place an order of 20 A350-1000 to top off the order of 50 A350-900.
Never flown EK, only EY, but will have to give EK another look when more of their birds have premium eco seats installed. Their biz class prices are always annoyingly high.
I have a great experience with Etihad and they have great passenger service. Only thing i dont like is their food, i just dont like food in the air in general.
I wonder about the delivery roster for the 321 XLR. Do they get delivered in order of when they placed their orders? So the orders placed at the air show get the first deliveries? Or is the delivery schedule blended so everyone gets some deliveres at the same time? In any case, who have orders, and in what order will they get deliveries?
Leeham blog says 787's are further delayed unto 2025. And we have a perfectly capable A330 - Neo that can fill in for most duties of the 787 (save for cargo pallets) not being ordered by any major airline save for Delta/Virgin and tourist Condor, mostly leisure duties. Seems like the A350 too won't make it in time by 2024. So 2025 for 3 Aircraft types to be received by EK? 777'x, A350, 787. Hope they can handle all that additional capacity with their other 777's & A380's.
I hope that Emirates Airline will buy New Airbus A350-900XWB'S and Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners even though The Boeing 777X Program is given trouble too Launched they'll still have enough New Planes too Operate in there Fleet for the Emirates Sky Cargo Side Ordering more Boeing 777F's is still a good move by them I hope they'll go for the New Boeing 777-8F's Next whenever Boeing Released them but we'll wait to see what happens next Awesome Video Long Haul By Aviation!!!!
It's going to be interesting to see what replace the A380s, since Emirates seems to want a similar aircraft, while the manufacturers will only offer stretched versions of their current flagships. I wonder who will budge first?
EK will have to take whatever Airbus's or Boeing's largest offerings are. They won't "budge" to create a whole new program for a single carrier. EK knows this.
@@monkev1199 No doubt the 10 will be after. It's just a concept at this point. May or may not happen. Like any company, EK will have to adjust to the available options it has.

Seems like the 787 is the right replacement for the 777 or even better then the 777x. 777x might be the right replacement for the A380 when they start to retire. Airbus has some issues just like Boeing does, you should not get boxed into one type.

Great video as always, will the 777x replace all of the older 777 or just the 777-200LR
All I think
Just do the math. They only have 10 LR's and 115 on order.
Probably 10 777-20Lrs and 105 777 300ERS so probably almost all
The 787-9 and A350-900 will replace the 777 on shorter routes. Then the A350-1000 and 777-9X will replace the 777 on longer routes.
@@caltrain910 They don't have any 350-1000s on order just the 900s

I wanna see that 777X flying with passengers already. It would be quite a milestone flight.

Long may the A380 live. The greatest passenger aircraft ever built and flown.
