Hi guys

I have set up a photo page for Emirates A380 onboard products, include 3 cabin views, Bar, Galley, Shower and cockpits.

Here is the link to view:

A full trip report will be available tomorrow evening.

Hey Sam. We asked flight attendants if you could come down and see us but they wouldn't let us see you. They said yes the 1st time, I will go and see the second time and no the last time. Any reason why they wouldnt allow it?

Preimum travelling Passengers only, even though its 1st flight no one is allowed up there unless you pay. EK are strict about that.

Tim,

Sorry I have missed you (and another spotter from AKL, Nicholas) Several pax on upper deck have requested to go downstairs but the crew told us they have blocked the access and we simply can't go anywhere. (I was in Business) and we can't go to First/Economy/Shower room/Cockpit. I understand this is pretty much the rules on a commercial flight.

Once arrive on the ground in NZ, the media were given a full tour of aircraft before return back on EK413 to Sydney.

Regards,

Sam

P.S. Perhaps access is blocked due to we have several VVIP onboard such as the Executive Director of Emirates AsiaPac region, the GM, Sydney Airport CEO and former CEO that do not want to be disturbed ?

Nice photos... however does anyone else agree with me that the polished "wallnut finish" is really outdated and tacky looking? Reminds me of the interior of an early 90's BMW driven by an old man with visible chest hair.
