Emirates A380 premium economy to Sydney, London, Paris from August 1
Mar 22, 2019, 09:45 PMYes I remember them .... OK until they overbooked the train and put on a carriage that truly felt like it came out of the Wild West. Kind of like booking Business and winding up in the middle seat of 5 in Cattle (and they've run out of ALL of your meal choices :-)
