Have you actually flown Emirates? From somewhere like Australia or NZ? Sure the A380s are good, although no longer new and innovative. But Dubai airport is the absolute pits. You come in at one terminal and have to travel literally thousands of metres if not more to get to your connecting flight. I have RUN through this airport to make a connection. I have found the restrooms to be disgustingly dirty, there is never anywhere to sit comfortably while you wait. People sit on the floor, just like they used to complain about with Charles de Gaulle airport. I now avoid Emirates for this reason - that awful stressful airport.
