  • hahahaha coach

  • Emirates started service from Rio de Janeiro (GIG) to Buenos Aires (EZE). Nice way to fly First Class (Suites) or Business for a much lower fare...

  • First class on A330 looks like Business on the B777-ER...

  • First was empty ???

  • @legoryan9 Yeah. basically on this Kolkata-Dubai sector they have two class config. however due scheduling issues, they were using an A330 with a 3 class config. so First was empty. They let me in there for a bit to get some footage for you guys!

  • very educational link me more videos

  • Even though a lot of people may complain about the 2-3-2 layout in Business Class in these A330 along with the A340-300 for Emirates, it's pretty sufficient for the shorter routes or the secondary markets such as Athens or Dakar. Was the First Class section closed for reservations?

  • Looks like an awesome plane!

  • Haha, I got isle seats 3 times when i was like 5-8yrs old, but then i said NO WAY, and now I request that they reserve me window seats during time of booking the ticket and it works! only that once I was on a 777 (last year) and the window was all the way infront and i had to lean forward to see outside

  • Really really great video :-)

  • Comment removed

  • These are Rolls-Royce Trent 772s BTW, not GE or PW. PW is damn loud and GE is moderate, but RR is the best!

  • What did you say to let them move you? lol

  • i swear to god i thought that was islamabad airport -.-

  • Fabulous Trip Report! I have been dying to try Emirates, and I will in June. Any Heads up about the EK business product?

    It was interesting as you noted that the range of a fully loaded is somewhere around 8340 nmi, as per airbus' website they state that the range is 7250. Wouldn't jet airways operate the JFK-india serveices nonstop then on the a330-200

  • @NICKARMAS thanks and glad you enjoyed this video. All the facts on my videos are from well reputed sites and I found that fact - 8340 nmi range - quite stunning to be honest. But, its a tribute to this awesome and sometimes under appreciated aircraft.

  • @seatgurus WHy thank you for the great insight on that range. That really is ashtonishing. The A330 is one of my personal favorites, I have flown the type many times with Qatar Airways and Cathay Pacific. This time I really wanted to try the EK Product out of SFO, and I hope I enjoy it as much As QR

  • @NICKARMAS Also, do you remember the AF447 flight that crashed? It was an A330 and was on a 12 hour flight...just saying. These planes can fly ultra long distances.

  • Airport that you pass on approach to Dubai is probably Sharjah - followed by a left hand 180 over the gulf to return and land on 12L.

  • @rascottdotcom Yea i believe it is Sharjah. If not Sharjah, its Abu Dhabi. Abu Dhabi is about an hour away from DXB while sharjah is a few mins

    

  • You had AMAZING seats!! Thats is more private than the first class seats

  • You flew with Emirates and British Airways. I would like to know who is the best between British Airways and Emirates?

  • @Ahuntsicspotter BA is great for quick connection times...Emirates is great for inflight service. BA has older planes (which I like, i like flying the 767s and 747s) Emirates has brand new planes. Emirates has very boring crowd..BA has a nice mixture of passengers. Chances of you sitting next to a hot woman is zero on Emirates...odds are higher on BA. Emirates crew is young and caring...BA crew is older an old school. BA had a bad reputation with baggage not so for Emirates. Cheers!

  • @seatgurus i think the information subtitles made the video wonderful and the video was very good! great filming my friend. hope to see more videos like this from you.. :D

  • @seaboo143 thx!! I have tried to add interesting annotations to all my videos. Glad you enjoyed!

  • The Best thing about your vids is that .... it gives the full flying experience without the boring parts of the journey! Keep Rocking RohanDa!!!

  • What's the haze? Fog or smog?

  • @funnorthwestboy it was really cold in calcutta this winter...it was a combination of fog and certain amount of smog. the air pollution in calcutta has decreased a lot in the past few winter

  • Great Video .... IMHO, Emirates has A330-200s not 300s (at least as far as I know)

  • @stef7mla Thanks! Actually EK does fly A330-330ERs and this was on on of them.. You are correct in the sense, they dont fly these 330ER 3 configs to CCU/Calcutta but it was one of those days when they did.

    By the way, what does IMHO mean lol?

  • @seatgurus IMHO stands for In My Honest Opinion
