Shower Facility on Emirates Airbus A380-800 Aircraft

Ok, this news is a bit outdated. Since the shower facility in Emirates First Class cabin was unveiled back in July last year. But i decided to post it anyway, along with some other facilities onboard such as the bar, the enclosed First Class suite, the new fully flat Emirates Business Class seat and so on. Be prepared to be impressed with just what money can do these days !

FIRST CLASS









FIRST CLASS BATHROOM








BUSINESS CLASS

As you can see, all seat has aisle access. No more "excuse me" whenever you need to get out of your seat to go to lavatory or just to have a walk, stretching your leg after sitting for so long. Each seat also comes with their own dedicated small personal bar on the side.









FIRST & BUSINESS CLASS BAR AREA










ECONOMY CLASS








A return ticket from Kuala Lumpur to London in Business Class on Emirates is RM19254 nett/per person in July. It is very expensive but still a bit cheaper than Malaysia Airlines and Singapore Airlines. Malaysia Airlines is charging RM23011 nett/per person while Singapore Airlines RM25661 nett/per person. Cathay Pacific Airways is much cheaper at RM18247 nett/per person with a short transit in Hong Kong. Lufthansa German Airlines and Thai Airways International are the cheapest at RM15830 nett/per person and RM15783 nett/per person respectively.

I'll list it down here so it will be easier for you to compare :
1. Singapore Airlines (transit in Singapore Changi Airport)
- RM25661 nett/pax

2. Malaysia Airlines (nonstop all the way to Heathrow)
- RM23011 nett/pax

3. Emirates (transit in Dubai)
- RM19254 nett/pax
**May choose to land in Heathrow or Gatwick

4. Cathay Pacific Airways (transit in Hong Kong Chek Lap Kok Airport)
- RM18247 nett/pax

5. Lufthansa (transit in Bangkok and Frankfurt/Munich)
- RM15830 nett/pax
**Can choose to fly into London City Airport which is much nearer to the city centre and new financial district > Canary Wharf than Heathrow, Gatwick or even Stansted Airport.

6. Thai Airways (transit in Bangkok)
- RM15783 nett/pax

I only list down the air fare in Business Class because ... Okay, i'm not telling you anything. Hahaha
