I would always fly with Emirates if I could afford to. Although I've not flown economy with every airline, I've flown with most, and in my opinion Emirates are by far the best. The only downside is the detour via Dubai and longer transfers than Euro airlines. If KLM were £50 cheaper, I'd still go with Emirates as the seats are comfier, have more legroom, the food is better, the entertainment system is better, seats have USB and AC power sockets for charging phones and laptops...etc, the staff are nicer - overall it is a much nicer experience with Emirates
Emirates upgraded me to business class on my last flight to HK - that is a very nice experience![]()
