Emirates Boeing B777 200LR seat review by Dr. Peter Mitchell #34323

First class lounge spacious, quiet, restful ambience, very comfortable with courteous service, good selection of food and drinks. Facilities for showering clean, well serviced and offer of slippers for hygienic reasons greatly appreciated. Receptionist at lounge confirmed flight details, and endorsed boarding card. Generous signage made it very easy to find departure lounge [ unlike Toronto]. All passengers underwent carry-on luggage inspection at gate lounge [ very reassuring ]. Cabin crew presented well - immaculately dressed, polite, attentive and obliging without being intrusive - even presented me with a birthday greeting card on arrival at Adelaide. Seating very comfortable and supportive - whole area well-appointed with everything within easy reach. Luggage collection straightforward. The only disappointment was my promised chauffer did not present despite an attempt to phone HQ, necessitating a private alternative arrangement after a wait of over an hour. Nevertheless I would still travel with Emirates.
