The experience overall was very impressive! My brother had an awesome experience flying Emirates in 1st class!
The first class lounge was a bit dated in the airport but the food was fantastic and service was brilliant! it can be compared to the business class lounge which I have used before
The flight experience onboard itself was amazing and absolutely incredible! Wouldnt change anything, the types of food and drink available onboard was amazing
The entrance lobby to the Emirates First Class Lounge
You get access to the Emirates lounge which is included in your 1st class ticket (you’d hope so!)
It was a large lounge with seperate dining areas and sitting lounges
Theres also a cigar den, showers and toilets to use at your pleasure
The first sitting area as you walk into the 1st class loungeThe cigar lounge where you can smoke indoors
There is a bar just behind this area where you can go grab a drink and enjoy with your cigar!
