Advice needed on my upcoming trip to Singapore with emirates,ECONOMY, yes I know it's not virgin but at £440 return I couldn't turn it away, at least I didn't use the dark side ):

Basically I logged into my account today to check the seat maps and noticed that the Dubai to Singapore leg had an aircraft change to an A380 . Cool ii) .

Untill I realised that we were put in row 22 which is upper deck BUSINESS CLASS.
What do I do , leave it and hope they don't notice or move to some much sought after two seaters on the lower deck which are much recommended and very scarce on the emirates A380.

Advice needed.

Regards jason

I'd just leave things as they are now and hope you get to keep those seats :)

I agree about the plane, but find EK to be average, a seat on the top deck of the A380 is great though, especially with the huge bar behind! I've flown in F on these a few times to and once you get past the fake gold trimmings and plastic wood effect (a bit over the top!) it's supremely nice (and they have an A list wine list too.

That said, 10 across in economy on their 777s is not appealing.

Jasong, the top deck is only F or J so you might well have been upgraded in which case I wouldnt worry...just enjoy what will be a fun experience.

Slinky, As you know from my TRs, my recent experience with EK was excellent. It is why I am going with them again for my OZ road trip Part 2!!! y) y) y)
