- Hey everyone, it’s time to fly long haul and what better than the Emirates A380 in Business Class?! 😃
I found myself in Melbourne and while for a small moment I considered flying via elsewhere, Emirates offered a direct flight which arrives to Dubai at lunch time, which gives me more time to spend with my family.
But I find Emirates the best way to fly to/from Australia anyway, so it’s all cool!
I’m keeping his video simple as I slept most of the way and I just wished to get home. But I managed to kill enough time by eating, hanging out in the lounge and making new friends with the crew!
It is also the last video I’ll publish in EK Business Class with the service we all know as it has just been updated. Stay tuned for all that, the A350-900 and the freshly updated B777-300ER Business Class cabins! It’s going to be a great summer on Emirates 👏
Thanks a lot for being here and I hope you enjoy!
Today we are showcasing you the following flight:
From: Melbourne International Airport, Victoria, Australia
To: Dubai International Airport, Dubai, the United Arab Emirates
Flight Number: EK409
Aircraft Type: Airbus A380-800
Registration: A6-EUT
Flight Time: 13:29

Feel free to leave a comment with your opinion and feedback.
Have a nice one!
You can also leave a Super Like as a tip for my work. I’ll invest it all on future trips.

MAN THE INTRO IS FIRE
Thanks my friend!!!
@@TheLayoverAviationit is really good!
The Dubai airport business class lounge is simply fantastic. Last time I was there I used the shower spa for an hour. Ate and drank for 4 hours prior to my return flight. Really helped melt the 5 hour layover away.
0:35 I love that shot of A6-EDM. I actually flew on that A380 back in December 2023 from Toronto to Dubai.
It’s one of the older ones. I’ve also flown it quite often, I remember all the registrations perfectly and EDM is one of the top ones I’ve flown!
No way me too I’ve been on it once
@@TheLayoverAviation Often ops to Moscow, where she was recently struck by a ground vehicle, sadly. The oldest A380 currently in operation at Emirates is A6-EDK.
I also went on EDM from Auckland to Brisbane in 2017
Thanks for another great video, hope you had a nice time in Melbourne. ☺
Awesome as always my friend. Thanks for your amazing work.
Just few more avgeeks and 50,000 arrived here☺️
Congratulations amigo! 😎🎉
I just can't believe, how just one little touch and 500+tons lifts like nothing
Once again! Great video! Take care and see you! ☺️
Great report. Nice long flight!
Thank you for a fabulous video. Your enthusiasm for EK is well founded. The food looked fantastic. The 6am Syd and Mel departures allow a late evening arrival in western Europe for a full nights sleep before the next day. A perfect cure for jet lag! Thanks again.
Yet another stunning video! Thanks for it, Alex. Your content is amazing.
Thanks a lot for the kind words, James. Very glad you enjoy it!
I love this flight! Even more the delicious food!
so good as always sir alex!
goota love this a380 food retreat :D
that flatbread (pita) with zaatar yuuumm!
It is always to watch your videos and learn a lot about planes and airport.
Today, the video is great.. That plane is passing through the houses in the morning ❤
👋, back to the best and where you belong 😂, I just love Emirates! I think Emirates does the best food and right sized food and the service is always just friendly efficient and warm. Great stuff 👍✈️
I was waiting for you to upload! the a380 is just great and congrats on almost hitting 50k subs!!!
Thanks a lot in advance! And yes, the upload took long. But we had all the rain in Dubai so my travel halted and I also was super busy with work.
Thank you for yet another STELLAR trip report!! Cheers to you!!
Thanks a lot my friend!
@@TheLayoverAviation You're welcome!
Fantastic video! I expect that it will be 50K by the next video. So make a special one for that. Congratulations for your amazing growth (more amazing to me since I have been a subscriber since 15K).
I think the first thing people notice about the A380 besides it's size and spaciousness, is it's quietness. It's amazingly quiet.
Too quiet for my taste… It’s great to sleep but I miss the loud sounds on take off and landing!
@@TheLayoverAviation Yeah, too bad it is going to be extinct.
@@LINJ638
Asian airlines will keep it around.
Boeing is going down the shitter.
It may find renewed use.
Hello Mr Alex, I really love your channel and have been following since 2022. Your flights and lounge experiences, especially the EK and Dubai ones had inspired me so much that we gathered our savings and went to Dubai in sept of 2023. Sadly could not take EK and took the Vistara economy class which also you had a video on. What was best was the day we returned to Mumbai, a day later you also posted a video from the same terminal for a flight to India. What I want to say is watching your videos makes me feel like I'm there. I am not an avgeek, in fact, quite the opposite, I have a flight phobia but learning about aviation from your channel helps me realize that flights arent as bad as I fear. Ironically, I have travelled to 12 countries as a kid. Now, I get nervous of flying especially turbulence. But I love watching your channel. Thanks for making people like me feel we travel sitting on our living room couch. Love and wishes from India..
I Love The Exterior Camera On Air Crraft.And Aboard Bar.Great Trip Report
They both make a big difference!
another beautiful video and review loved it
Thanks Saud!! I’ve missed you around!
Well done my friend! Excellent video as always! Your consistency in reporting meets the consistency that Emirates offer! Truly! I had exactly the same menu from AKL to DXB last month and asked my steak for medium! And it was exactly that!! I know how difficult it is to get it right up in the air! New PJs are so comfy! I wear them all the time at home now! For other followers who read my comments; I met Alex in Dubai in person last month; what a great great guy! Alex we could have talked for another 12 hours easily exchanging experiences! I'm sure we will meet very soon again! You have become a true friend!! SAFE AND SOUND MY FRIEND! Omhelzing, FLIP. (And a high five for Eric from "uncle Flip").🤗.
hey bro!!..Loved this video..its a joy to watch it on a big screen...thanks.......and by the way..your Etihad video helped me this time.....travelled Etihad business...amazing trip i had......
G’day Alex, love me an A25 on Emirates A380…flew Mel-Dub-Lgw 2 years ago, unable to book it on the first leg but got it on the second leg…I gave the bar a good workout on both legs…Keep up the great vids…👍👍
I heard that Dubai got flooded, it's cool to see they're back in action! :D
Yeah, it kept me from flying for a good week!
Thank you for visiting my hometown Melbourne. Hope you had a great time 👍
Always have!! And it was such great weather, just between seasons!
Great work, doing Melbourne to Dubai 3 day stopover and then onto London return Melbourne in July
😂😂😂Just waiting to say finally😂.The Best Trip Report😂😂😂❤.
Loved it as usual. 😊
And I’m happy to see you around again!
What a beautiful video man!
So glad to have you here Jelmer!
Lovely review mate, I would very much love to try Emirates' Business Class one day! I have just flown on their Economy a few weeks ago and I have to say they are world class.
hey alex, i love your vids bro and for me i think you are my fav youtuber and the best aviation youtuber out there mate, i have sub from day one as your timing on the vids are spot on! Now i got something for you if you go to Asia, so book a flight with Bangkok airways from Bangkok Thailand to Koh Samui Thailand on the a319 in Asia's most boutique airline for as cheap as other low cost airlines, this will offer you free service to the rest area at both airports and buffet room for free as well, you get 2 free meals on board and also a free seat selection, and when you arrive at Koh Samui airport you will be blown away as it is called the outdoor airport as there is nothing inside, so i hope you do this trip report as i really recommend it
Wonderful journey mate from Melbourne to Dubai.
Thanks a lot for the kind words my friend!
Excellent presentation, I’m doing Perth via Dubai to London, so looking forward to the experience.
I chose seat 23A in the smaller seating area, front row with bulkhead ahead of me and just a short walk to the lounge bar.
awsome video! Also, have you ever tried a route from seattle to doha? If not i would like to see you go!
Great video Alex 🥂 Hope you've had a chance to see some of what Melbourne offers, lots of places for 🍷🥃🍷🥂😂 Friends took that exact same flight 3 weeks ago, am housesitting for them (400km from home) and they'll be back in 3 weeks on that return flight that arrives around 5.30am ... such a quick turn around for such a large aircraft. The catering from Melbourne didn't look half bad as well, kudos to Tulla 🥰 Safe travels my friend. 🥃🥃🥃
Wow! Another excellent video🎉
If it's not top secret😂 What is your job please that involves so much travelling?
Thanks for your great videos. Always a treat
I have flown on a similar route with Emirates A380 from Dubai to Brisbane in business class and it was an unforgettable experience for me.Plenty of food αnd exemplary service by the cabin crew Excellent flight review👍
Lovely
you really need to visit bangalore again and enjoy the new terminal! planespotting has gotten a lot better too now.
I have visited already 2 times but didn’t find the time to film. I hope to do so soon!
Thanks for another cool video, Alex. Maximum respect to you for managing to sleep when you have to check in for a flight. I am always nervous that the alarm might fail to go off. Yes, I heard the engine noise and thanks for highlighting it. I think that is to allow for more airflow into the engine before full thrust can take effect. I do not think Emirates is one of the pioneers of long-haul travel. Pan Am, BOAC, Lufthansa, Air France and KLM maybe because they had to fly to different parts of the world to their colonies. Emirates has taken long haul flying to another level and they are not done yet.
As you age, past things "used to be better". Maybe that is true. Attend any party and one is almost sure of dancing to Kool and the Gang's "Celebrate" and "Ladies Night". Everybody loves those tracks, even kids whose parents were not yet born at the time the tracks were released. So, older definitely used to be better.
Thank You Layover Aviation once again for uploading the video once again 😊😅🎉😂😂❤❤and what is your next flight video?
Please do trip reports on BA 277 from London to Hyderabad and BA 276 From Hyderabad to London.
Are you planning on reviewing the Pearl lounge at Zayed Intl. Airport any day? I haven't seen good reviews/videos of that lounge.
I would love to watch your video on their upcoming 359. I have already booked their BOM-DXB-BAH route, as I have a work visit in Bahrain in December. Gulf Air would have taken me directly over there but don't want to miss the fun on the new EK product.
Awesome flight video. What cam?
Thanks! iPhone 13 Pro Max
Wohhoo!! lets goo.....
❤️ ✈️
I broke my hand but still enjoyed watching you
Nice video
Awesome, so much food. How did you create so much space to consume all the food all alone? 😀
The crew ha sido muy amable contigo a pesar de que no habias conprado chocolates
Sera el guiño del principio 😅
Compré chocolates, pero no lo he grabado. Raras veces me presento sin nada..!
6:40 No that's actually a double spool up. Happens even in normal takeoffs were the weight is not as much. A feature unique to the Trent-900 & Trent-XWB.
I'm a 23A person. Best airline in my opinion, although the safety briefing seems to go on forever!
It’s time to update the safety briefing! And yes, 23A is great but it has a slightly more obstructed wing view..
Thanks a lot We are watching😂😊
Thanks for watching!

When I see an A380, I can't help but stop what I'm doing and watch it move through the sky.
My last vacation was on Emirates business class A380 from NYC JFK to Dubai and Maldives.
Before that, I went with Emirates Business Class from NYC to Dubai to Seychelles.
We had to board the Emirates 777 for the second leg of the journey. Not as nice as the A380, but nice nonetheless.
Emirates has made travel so delightful and luxurious, it's hard not to imagine myself on the planes I spot.
Great x
I'd love to try Emirates again - I flew both business and economy from London to Mauritius last week, and whilst their hard product is excellent, the service was awful. Crew arguing in business about who had ordered what, and the speed of service was abysmal. I've heard such great things about EK so maybe I caught them on a bad day, but I really hope they can improve their service to be in line with BA or VS who have always been friendly, attentive, and professional.
you have an eye for the camera. Well done, but it's your plane spotting & captions that set you apart. Normally a Qatar flyer out of MEL you do make it look tempting!
What a flight.... wish. I was there
Omg im back here to tell you again about retrofitting etc 🫢This plane u flew A6-EUT is currently being retrofitted (bc my dad is an emirates senior engineer) so u basically flew its old interior in its last moments ig
Are you planning to go on the Air India A350 between DXB and DEL? Cool if you could make a video on it😄
Weirdly enough I had booked it for this evening but it canceled thanks to some Air India Express cancelations.. So perhaps soon!
Air India is one of the worst airlines in south asia
I don't like air india. 😢
I miss Melbourne.. Tullamerine. Left 4 years 6 months after 2007 to 2019 - Student to citizen to Professional...
Lovely...
Melbourne - Tullamerine to Singapore CHangi to Coimbatore CJB airport.. Nov 1 2019
thank you alex for your eagerness to film you make us great videos and by the way i loved avia company of your country i am trying to fly in emirates business class but it didn't come true i flew to dubai with a connection in 2 termenal fly dubai flew to colombo but i am from ukraine but thank you very much for your videos and flights and especially with your son and good luck and continue to amaze us.
Very nice.
This is a lovely trend, always perfecting its beauty of videos!❤
I barely have had any time to publish anything the past few weeks so I kind of rushed through this one.. But glad you liked it!
Love it.....be truthful is emirates that good..? ..😀😜
If I didn’t have this channel I would fly them way more often!
I love Emirates
The rumours said they will begin a new service of the Etihad A380, so when will you fly the A380 between AUH and JFK?
Sir, pls try the emirates A350 once it comes out, I heard they already started selling tickets for the emirates A350 for some routes.
Of course I will! I will try to be amongst the first to fly it 😀
Time for Emirates to become our interline partner for premium staff travel! Perks of working for an airline when you can standby on 100s of airlines lol. But there are only 3 other airlines where we can do a business class standby outside BA. Not that those talks are going well... EK wouldn't want that lol.
I can imagine Emirates flying 100+ Boeing 747-200B (even more than Pan Am), Boeing 747SP, and McDonnell Douglas DC-10-30 if they existed in the 1970s with the route network they have today, which, I know, sounds pretty ridiculous since Emirates was actually founded in 1985 with Airbus A300 and Boeing 737 from PIA. The Boeing 747 would have dominated the DXB-LHR sectors as well as flights to Australia. Emirates would have even fitted the upper deck (hump) of their early 747s with a retro lounge, offered the finest tobacco, Cuban cigars or even hookah (which is a bit of a stretch; and the Hookah pipes would have been too big, even for a 747) to First Class passengers 🤔. Anyway, the A380 is an awesome aircraft for long haul flights (which is an understatement given that we are talking about Emirates here), despite not being economical nowadays.
I don’t think it would ever have worked out as the demand back then just wasn’t there. People were working much more back then with less holidays. I’ve thought about it too though!
Glad I never experienced sisha or hookahs on planes though, that would have been one smelly flight 🤣
Thanks for the nice trip of imagination!
Will you be flying on the Emirates A350 inaugural flight?
Not sure if it will be the inaugural flight but I’ll try to be amongst the first to fly it for sure!
I love emirates it is the best affordable airline ever ❤.
I wish it was affordable! It can be from some places, but from Dubai it’s so expensive!
But oman air is an excellent and affordable airline.
Hardly affordable.
Will fly the very same route on the Emirates A 380 in 5 days time!
The service has changed by now in Business Class so you might notice quite a few differences, if you’re upstairs.
I wish you a great one!! Drink lots of water 💪
Thank you
Any plans for India?
Try our latest Air India's A350 From DXB TO DEL if possible
I booked it for tonight but due to some Air India Express cancellations I had to postpone it to avoid any risks. Coming up soon!
@@TheLayoverAviation Oh, expecting it soon and thanks for the reply!
Bro have good education on how to keep the audience engaged in the video. The intro is an example I think so !
Thanks for the nice words!!
Bro, how long was your flight?
I guess not many passengers are flying the 13 and a half hour daytime flight to Dubai because it's expensive or they prefer the 13 and a hour red eye flight to Dubai. I am curious, how much did you pay to fly Emirates?
Serving rendang and balinese chicken on a flight from oz is something very novelty.
I think Aussies are very accustomed and exposed to Asian food. I find there some of the best in the world, so it makes a lot of sense for me! It’s like the popularity of curries in the UK.
I’m flying on a 15 hour flight soon any tips?
Bring lots of water! And I also use lots of lip balm and moisturizer.
Are you going on the Emirates A350 inaugural flight to Bahrain?? I’m going I have my ticket booked!!!!!
I didn’t book it yet as I don’t know if I’ll be busy on that date or not. I’ll know once we get closer to the date.
@@TheLayoverAviation oh that’s unfortunate, there are lots of economy seats, still available on the aircraft, but the A350 business class and premium economy class has no seats left.
Alex hw about A Emirates economy review on DXB - MAA route ?
I’ve got MAA-AUH filmed on Etihad Business Class but not sure if I’ll post it as I didn’t really enjoy it.. We’ll see.
@@TheLayoverAviation oh that's disappointing
Dude, where is Doha to Montreal? its been forever
Aha, right! Good memory! I keep delaying it. Next week, I promise!
NOBODY CAN BE LIKE EMIRATES 👍 👌 💯 1%
There’s lots of great airlines but EK is quite unique in their approach.
And when are you trying to fly the Emirates A350?
When it’s delivered!
Doha to Edinburgh in Qatar Airways please?
Try Bangladesh Biman someday 😃
I have! There is a video around on their B787 😉
Sir please try saudi airlines
It’s booked for next week 😎
@@TheLayoverAviation Hope to see what sort of flight you’re taking!
Price?
Quite a lot.. Flights to/from Australia are quite expensive, specially if direct. You can do an online search to get the average price..
Waiting for emirates a350s
Oh really, once the A380 are gone for good???? Fuck man.
At the end of the summer!
@@LINJ638 I don’t think it will be gone
What do you work that you get to fly so much all over the world? 🙂
I do a lot.. But mostly in the hospitality business, events and promotions. Long story!
I’d love to do this flight but $20k is just too much for me right now
Flights from/to Australia are ridiculously expensive! But Aussies spend a lot on travel.
@@TheLayoverAviation I guess it makes sense, they live super far away from almost everything so the fuel cost will always be insane.
Visit Cairo again
DEL-DXB Air India 350 pls.
Im flying it in a couple of days!
還好嗎？是否水浸？
The crews were unlucky this time as there was no gift for them!
There was but I didn’t film it!
When Will.You Fly With SAUDIA
Next week!
@@TheLayoverAviation Ok Can't Wait
Klass video of Vladivostok VVO Russia🇷🇺
50k coming 😅
A commercial for Emirates.
Aren’t all video’s if it’s a positive experience?
If you post any sort of picture of my restaurant on your instagram I’ll also consider it free publicity! That’s the power of social media 💗
