It is not a good idea retiring First Class as this will push up the price of Business, as there will no longer be cabin comparisons.

The biggest challenge with the A380s is they will have to retire in about 20 years, well actually they are sold to air cargo operators. What should have happened with the A380 is reinvent, rather than stop production.

Excellent news and great destination. Would be good if they could do a few via Hawaii, Qantas has a crap service to Hawaii and it is via Sydney!

Brilliant and just in time for our next trip. Well done Emirates!

Agree, and so many Business Lounges are overcrowding with economy frequent flyers... solution, develop a lounge for those frequent flyers.
