Emirates First - current experience ex-DUB?

    Hi, anyone got experience yet of the modified service from Emirates out of Dublin? I am due to fly early August but have a flexi ticket if it comes to it.

    The DAA website mentions their own lounges are closed (till September! Nonsense!) but The East Lounge that EK contract to isn’t mentioned. Helpful to know if it’s now open.

    Really interested to know how the boarding process is being managed in Dublin with the 777. That’s potentially a lot of people waiting by the one gate. I assume unlike premium-heavy airports, Dublin is still using a single jet bridge to board all classes of passenger? Not exactly thrilled to board early if the entire Y and J cohort are filing past me grasping at seat backs.

    As for on board service, the leather bound menus and hot towels are apparently gone for now. Replaced by single use paper menus and refresher towelettes. I can live with that but if meal service is diminished to the level of the pre-plated hot dishes served in business class I might look to postpone my trip.

    Finally helpful to know if EK are still providing immigration fast track passes for DXB or if the arrivals COVID testing means everyone is herded into a single queue regardless of class
