My first trip with Emirates was booked on an online booking site where I received quite a heavy discount considering I prefer to travel by Business class.

As I checked in, I saw no frustrated faces during boarding or otherwise on the flight. Many a times I have seen agents/attendants who have provided me services as if they are doing me a favor! But not so with Emirates.

What I liked best about Business class was the Inflight entertainment. During the 3 hour Mumbai-Dubai flight I could access international news channels; latest movies

During the flights, the cabin crew and attendants were really well mannered and polite. I just don’t remember the umpteen number of times I had hammered them to serve them my favorite glass of juice again & again. But thank goodness, they were patient!

The food was excellent and extremely delicious. It was well presented too – A heavenly experience.

The flight landed just in the nick of time; sometimes they even land earlier than presumed.

In conclusion I was floored by the five-star experience set out for me and would highly recommend Emirates airline

It is one of the oldest and traditional methods of getting across from Bur Dubai to Deira through ‘Abras’ or waterbus. While the Abras are more conventional, the waterbus is an advanced version of the Abra; a more luxurious and comfortable approach to water transport.
