Emirates Trip Report of the flight from Johannesburg to Dubai onboard one of the Emirates Boeing’s 777-300 on a beautiful summer day over Africa.
A really comfortable flight onboard the Emirates Boeing 777 from Johannesburg to Dubai. Once again, even though the flight was around 70%, I managed to have 3 seats for me, making this almost 8h flight towards Dubai a lot easier. This was my first time flying on the Emirates B777 and I must say that I liked it. Of course, if you compare it to the A380… it doesn’t have any chance. Now, compared to almost any other airline, it is great.
About the onboard service, although I liked it in general, I must say that I appreciated a lower quality compared to my previous Emirates flights. The chicken meal was tasting good, but the salad was, in my opinion, one level below the usual Emirates. The dessert was clearly under what you expect from Emirates. Bad taste, bad looking. Caloric bomb without taste.
That said, when I finished the meal, I asked if I could get another chicken meal. They said of course I could. I asked then for an extra napkin, as mine was looking very used. Well, what happened next was a real surprise. My offense threshold is very high. It is hard to offend me. However, I must say what they brought me was really rude. Just check it on the video. I just took it and moved on… but other passengers might not have had the same reaction. It never happened anything similar. Not only with Emirates, but with any airline. I will take it as an exception and use it to value more the perfect service they usually offer.
1 hour before landing they served a pre-landing snack, which turned out to be a sandwich consisting of a slice of cheese and 2 pieces of bread, and a cold plastic-packed brownie. It was more than disappointing… I already said in previous Trip Reports that Emirates needed to improve the second meal. Now I say it even more clearly: Emirates must improve the second meal. For the price of their tickets I really think this is not acceptable.
About the flight itself, we departed from Johannesburg on time. After some nice views of the city and Pretoria, we flew towards Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Malawi, and Tanzania. When we were already over the Indian Ocean we enjoyed a really nice Sunset, with camera clips from both sides of the plane. We flew in parallel to the Somalia coast on course to Oman. From there, a final direct course to Dubai was set, where we finally landed around 40 minutes ahead of the scheduled, after a spectacular night approach over the city of Dubai.
Now it’s your turn! Have you ever flown with Emirates? How was the experience? Which route did you fly? Have you ever been in Johannesburg? Maybe in Dubai? Have you ever flown on a Boeing 777? Which one do you prefer for flying with Emirates: the B777 or A380?
Lots of things to talk about! See you all in the comments!

Big room for improvement in economy, yeah it’s call Business or First!
Muito bom o trabalho de filmagem e edição. Agora, quanto à Emirates…de fato um serviço de bordo bordo reduzido, fraco mesmo. Não combina com a riqueza e a grandiosidade da companhia.
Dubai del rosito bonito 🤗
Excelente trip report!!
Cada vez subes más el nivel! 👍
Abrazo my friend!
Thank you for a great video ! Excellent flight, but a shame that there was a bad tempered crew member on your flight, and the poor quality food – very unlike the usual Emirates !
Para el próximo vuelo viaja en Plus Ultra porfa
Nunca dejo de ver tus lindos videos son una hermosura muy hermoso lo que muestran 🇨🇴🇨🇴🙏🏻🛫🛫✈️✈️🛫🛫✈️✈️👍
Sin duda alguna la empresa Emirates es impresionante que belleza de aviones me gusta mucho está aerolínea 🙏😗💜👌😘😇✈️🛫🛬✈️🛫🛬
Every time I travel to Dubai to see my girlfriend I book with emirates last time pre landing meal they give me kick kat and they give me popcorn the crew was friendly
BUENAS,MUY BUEN VIDEO DEL.VIAJE A DUBAI,EXELENTE ,MEJOR EL 380 ,SALUDOS DESDE BOGOTA COLOMBIA👍👍👍👍👍
In this line of work, these young men and women signed up to do this job to deal with nasty people, so don't take it out on them 99.9% for poor piss shoddy service.
So nice to see a comprehensive report from economy class. Well done!
Though the service was a bit of a mess, the sunset was priceless!
Lucas ya has ido a África, otro continente más. Un viaje muy interesante. Muchos países por los que has pasado. Qué maravilla¡¡¡ La tripulación y eso lo sabes tú también, lleva muchas horas de vuelo, intentando agradar a los pasajeros (cosa que a veces es imposible) y muchas veces no son tratadas muy bien. Lo que pasa es que alguna veces pagan justos (en este caso, tú) por pecadores (algún tarado). Son cosillas comprensibles de cualquier colectivo laboral, en fin. Lo demás muy bien, qué bien comes Lucas, jajajjaja y me alegro mucho porque llevas un trajín de vuelos y viajes increíble. Pronto te irás de vacaciones no? Me encanta Johannesburgo. Yo pensaba otra cosa y veo que es una ciudad grande y seguro que cosmopolita. Me ha gustado mucho este viaje. En cuanto al avión, yo creo que es mejor el A 380 porque es más nuevo , más grande y más espacioso sobre todo los asientos, pero bueno este Boeing 777 también está bien para los viajes que hace.
I have never been in Johannesburg.Good job
I've never flown on Emirates before I sure hope they have some good flight destinations
When was this? I know now Dubai to Johannesburg is served by A380 x 2 a day
I love your trips 👌👌👌
Excellent quality 🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇
I wander what the food was like in business class on your flight that day!,i watch alot of the flight reports that you have made & you do a awesome job.,thanks so much for uploading this video!.
Can you do an Etihad trip report?
It was year2017, I was on the board from madina to abudhabi on emirates airways. One of them female crew behaved with me so cruly without any reason. My fault was I asked to her for water. Bad behaviour of emirate airways is world famous
@OnBoardHD Could you show flights from or to Gran Canaria again? That would be great too!
Holaa, tengo una duda. Tengo reservado un vuelo de BCN a Dubai (EK-188) en Diciembre de 2022, actualmente la ruta la hace un Boeing 777 pero antes de la pandemia era con el a380. El caso es que la pagina al coger el vuelo nos lo da como boeing, pero a la hora de coger asientos (que aun no puedes a menos que pagues mas) pone la distribución del a380. Sabes si cambiaran en un futuro esta ruta y volverán al a380, porque serian muy buenas noticias volver a verlo por BCN. Muchas gracias
Wonderful. I haven’t traveled since 2016 and am so enjoying your videos.
Thank you so much. Traveling an airplane is so exciting, drinking a glass of wine beside the clouds is wonderful ! Greetings from France, Dear ! 🍀🌼🍀✈️
Omg. Eco
one of my favorite places and cities to visit Joburgh!
Fantastic report mate, so cool to watch you growing and inside the Emirates 777!!
La servilleta, dá miedo, parece que la usase para…🤬 Las vistas de este vuelo, me resultaron algo sosas, me parece que las vistas sobre europa, son mas bonitas. No protestes por la comida que a tus pies quedaron unos cuantos países con una larga historia de hambre y miseria. eso seguro te lo didrían tus abuelas. 😇
Un cordial abrazo.
qué delicado, ni que fueras en business class
