Yes she published an email saying first class experience also on emirates website there is an option of first class dublin to dubai.There is no first class from Dubai to Dublin. Only business. It's BS. Its only first class from dubai onwards and use of the first class lounge if transiting etc.I lived there so I know...unless it changed in the last 6 months which I doubt as the money isin't there to use the big planes to Dublin.
If it was first class, you'd see the seperate seat cabin. She was in business. Google first class seat Emirates. Did she actually say she went in 1st?
