In business class, there is a free shuttle service to the airport, and we will be riding in the shuttle car. Arrival at Milan Malpensa Airport. It is one of Italy’s largest international airports. Let’s go inside. It’s a large airport.
We will be taking flight EK092, departing from Milan at 21:35 and arriving at Dubai at 6:45. There are separate check-in counters for First, Business, and Economy.

Not all airports have Emirates lounges, only those in larger cities. Computer corner. The inside of the Emirates lounge is spacious.
The Emirates Lounge has pictures of the country’s famous buildings. This is Italy, so there are pictures of Italy on it. Many of the chairs have electrical outlets next to them, which is a nice touch. The back is the dining area. Sweets and fruits. Fruits, cheeses etc. Middle Eastern foods. Salads.

A beautiful shower room. VOYA body soap and shampoo are provided. Aliseo hair dryer. Foot washing area. It’s a beautiful wash basin.
Go to the boarding gate. Let’s take a look at the shop. Since it is an Italian airport, products with the Italian logo are sold there. AC Milan uniform with Emirates’ brand promise ‘Fly Better’. Products with Milan written on it. Boarding gate is B53.
We can see the tip of the Airbus A380-800 that we will be flying. Business and First passengers have priority boarding. Due to poor airport operations, we had to wait for about 20 minutes. Finally boarding.
Airbus A380-800 is a double decker airplane. We usually board from the second floor, but this time we will board from the first floor. The first floor is economy class. Some aircraft also have premium economy class. The 14 seats in the front of the second floor are first class.
The first class flight video has been uploaded previously. The three-class A380 Business Class has 76 business class seats. The A380 business class seating arrangement is 1-2-1. Even among window seats, there are cases where the seat is on the aisle side and seats where the seat is on the window side.
There are luggage racks above the seats. Business class has 76 seats, so it’s a spacious cabin. I chose a window seat, and also a seat that was closer to the window than on the aisle. Seat pitch 122cm (48″), seat width 47cm (18.5″), seat monitor 50.8cm (20″).
The path to the seats is narrow and a little difficult to enter. It has a flashy interior with a prominent gold color. There are seat, drink holder and table next to them. The head part is only covered with cloth. Cushion and pillow. Blanket. Next to the seat… Reading light. Monitor controller.

It has an external camera so we can see what’s going on outside. Flight route from Milan to Dubai. Distance: 4713 km (2928 miles). Flight time is 6 hours and 10 minutes. In this pocket… Waste bag. Safety instructions. Egyptian lifestyle magazine “Identity”. Italian magazine “Sospiro”. In-flight entertainment magazine “ice”.
The color of the lighting changes and becomes a moody color. The welcome drink of the day is champagne or orange juice. Window shades are manual. The current time in Europe is night. It’s a 6 hour 10 minute flight, so it’s inevitable that we won’t get enough sleep. Amenity pouches is distributed.
The design is different from the pouch when I boarded it before. In-flight safety video in Arabic begins. Bvlgari pouch. Inside are Bvlgari shaving lotion, body emulsion, lip balm, and toiletry perfume, Rezona deodorant, dental kit, razor, comb, and tissue.

There is a fee for Wi-Fi on board. About the wearing seat belts. About no smoking on board. About the brace position. About the oxygen masks.
About the emergency exits. About the life jackets. The cabin design may be flashy, but the in-flight safety video is serious. An in-flight safety video is also broadcast in Italian. There will be hand towels distributed. The plane started moving.
An explanatory video about in-flight entertainment “ice” will be played. Subtitles are always in Arabic and audio is in English. Departure. The lighting is red and purple.

Emirates’ Airbus A380 aircraft has a bar lounge at the rear of the second floor. Arabic menu. We are finally taking off. Successful takeoff. The view from the window is… We can barely see the night view of the city. We may be able to see more beautiful scenery on a daytime flight.
5 hours and 42 minutes to Dubai. I want to go to bed early. Change the seat to a relaxed position. I’ll try putting a blanket on it. Window seats close to the window offer privacy and are very good. Take the monitor controller. It’s shaped like a game controller.

Chocolate orange marquise served with citrus chutney. Everything was delicious, but the quantity was not large. Swiss Canonica chocolate. There are two types of chocolate. Go to the bar lounge at the rear of the second floor. We can order sweets and alcoholic drinks. Since it’s December, there will be Christmas cake on this day.
Sandwiches and snacks. Santa Claus package. I brush my teeth and get ready for a nap. Lights are off inside the aircraft. Make the seat completely flat. It’s easy to make it completely flat with just one button.
If we ask the flight attendant to make the bed, they will do it for us, but this time I will do it myself. It’s easy, just lay out the bed pad and spread out the blanket. The space is large enough to provide a calm environment for sleeping.
Depending on the aircraft, the ceiling looks like a starry sky, but this cabin does not have a starry sky specification. At this point, there are only 3 hours left, so I can only sleep for about 2 hours.
I took a nap for about 2 hours, and there were only 54 minutes left until we arrived. Return the seat to its original position. The plane is about to enter the skies over Dubai. The lighting turns orange. A Welcome to Dubai video is played on the flight to Dubai.

Unique artificial islands. Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest tower. There are also many tall buildings around it.
Dubai Frame is the world’s largest picture frame. Landing soon. On this day, there was a lot of shaking when landing. Emirates is an airline founded in 1985 and based in Dubai, so we can see many Emirates planes at Dubai International Airport.
The current main fleet is the Airbus A380-800 and the Boeing 777-300ER, as well as the Boeing 777-200LR. Emirates has become a hot topic in the airline industry with its bold new services and large orders for aircraft.
Emirates has made headlines in the past for placing large orders for the double-decker Airbus A380, making it the airline’s largest customer. The UAE flag is painted on the vertical tail. The Airbus A380 is a really big airplane when we see it up close. BGM is playing on the plane. Arriving soon.
Emirates logo. The letters of the United Arab Emirates written in Arabic are superimposed. Business class on the Airbus A380 was very comfortable. On the other hand, the new business class on the Boeing 777-300ER has a 2-3-2 seating arrangement, which is said to be not very good.
First class. Only A380 First Class passengers have access to the shower spa. Emirates logo. Arrived around 7am. There is a reception desk for the car transfer service just past the baggage claim area. After making the flight reservation, I already reserved the car transfer service on the website.
We offer free transportation from the airport to any location in Dubai. This is a private business class car. The inside of the car is comfortable. Dubai frame. There are many skyscrapers with unique shapes. Museum of The Future. Burj Al Arab in the background. To Palm Jumeirah.
I stayed at W Dubai the Palm. I’ve already released a video. I stayed at One and Only The Palm. After completing my stay in Dubai, I will be transferred to the airport again in a private Emirates car. Free car transportation is a very convenient service. Beautiful night view. Back to Dubai International Airport.
Dubai International Airport has three terminals, and this is Terminal 3. Terminal 3 is dedicated to Emirates, Air Canada, and United, as well as some FlyDubai flights. When we walk through the entrance, we will see a first class counter and then a business class counter next to it.
After checking in, I got my boarding pass. Furthermore, security check and immigration have been completed. Duty free area. Upstairs we will find the first class lounge and business class. There are three business class lounges in Terminal 3, with the lounge in Concourse B being the largest.
The boarding pass will be verified by a machine. We are already in the business class lounge. List of business class lounge facilities. The entire first floor is a lounge and is very spacious. There is a duty free shop on the lower floor. This is Dubai, so there are pictures of Dubai on display.
Emirates Skywards desk. There are lots of places to sit. A corner called health hub. There are foods and drinks that seem to be good for the body. Shoe shine corner. A spa called Timeless. They have a variety of massage and treatment menus. Go to the back.
Quiet lounge. It seems like there are always a lot of people. We can see the boarding gate for Concourse B on the lower floor. Middle Eastern & Western corner. Ice cream corner. Dessert corner. Asian corner. The focus is on South Asian cuisine. Smoking corner. International corner. There are various dishes. Arabian sweets.
Arabian coffee served on first class flights. It is not available on business flights, but it is available in the lounge. Champagnes or wines. The UAE is an Islamic country and is strict on alcohol, but the lounge offers a wide variety of alcoholic drinks. There is a Moët & Chandon lounge towards the back.
We can drink Moët & Chandon champagne for free. Costa coffee corner. Business corner. The business corner always seems to be empty. Children’s play room. As in Milan, there are shower rooms inside the restroom. Move to Concourse C. It takes about 10 minutes on foot from Concourse B.
There is also a business class lounge in Concourse C. The buffet food menu and facilities are the same as before, so I will omit them. The business class lounge in Concourse C is also located on the upper floor. We can see the planes from the lounge window.
Next time we will be on the Airbus A380. Boarding gate is C23. The flight departs from Dubai at 2:55 and arrives at Tokyo at 17:20, taking 9 hours and 25 minutes. The design is different from the business class cabin we rode before.
The number of seats is 76, and the layout is 1-2-1. The color is creamier than before, and the seat material is different. Seat pitch 122cm (48″), seat width 47cm (18.5″), seat monitor 50.8cm (20″). Although the design and color are different, the structure around the seat is almost the same.
This seat is newer than the previous one, and the headrest has a softer material. The seat itself is also more comfortable. Pillow, blanket, and life jacket are in the same position. The reading light, monitor controller, and outlet are all the same. Drink holder. The drinks and contents are the same.
Same goes for tablets and headphones. Socks and eyeshade. Seat position adjustment switches. Dining table. My seat this time is also by the window, but I’m sitting in a seat close to the aisle. There are two windows. Shades are manual. It has a lot of storage, which I appreciate. Monitor.
Under the monitor. It looks better when the color is creamy. There are lights and speakers above. There are luggage racks above each seat. Welcome drinks are champagne and apple juice. The color of the lighting is more fashionable than before. From Dubai to Tokyo is 5,673 miles (9,129km), 9 hours and 25 minutes.
Paper required when entering Japan. Wine list. The wine menu is different between the Milan route and the Tokyo route. Drink and food menu. English on the left, Japanese on the right. It’s almost the same, but some have Japanese sake. The meal menus are different between the Milan route and the Tokyo route.
The Tokyo route is unique in that it has a Japanese menu. Since it is the same A380, there is a bar lounge at the rear of the second floor. There is also an Arabic notation. Wet towel was distributed. Bvlgari’s pouch is different in design and shape from the front.
This pouch looks easy to use. The contents of the pouch are the same. The in-flight safety video will be broadcast in Arabic, English and Japanese. A video of the in-flight entertainment “ice” will be played as well. Before takeoff. If we look at the ceiling before looking at the monitor…
The ceiling of the new business class cabin features a starlit sky. Aisle seats are far from the window, making it difficult to see the outside scenery. Watch the moment of takeoff on the monitor. Takeoff completed successfully. This time we were seated next to the main wing. Voyager’s 3D map.
I ordered a drink called Vitality Boost. It looks good for the health. The monitor screen is the same. Wi-Fi is also available for a fee. Assorted sushi. Looking at the reviews from Japanese people, there are some opinions that the sushi on Emirates flights is a little weird, but personally, I find it delicious.
As expected, the quality is lower than the sushi at Japanese sushi restaurants. Pumpkin tortellini. It is a type of pasta that is said to have originated in the Bologna region of Italy. To be honest, I would have rather eaten pasta on the Milan route than on the Tokyo route.
We can view information about Emirates’ fleet on the monitor. The Airbus A380 we are flying this time. Boeing 777-300ER. The sheet functions are the same. The interior of the restroom is different from before. The national tree of the UAE is painted on the door.
The design of the bar lounge is also different from before. This lounge features tables. We can order sweets and alcoholic drinks as before. The national tree of the UAE is depicted on the sandwich packaging. Fruits. Menu. Snacks. Return to the seat. Try setting the seat completely flat.
The cream color is easier to see. Bed made complete. This is what it feels like when we lie down in the aisle seat. There is no one next to me this time. I like that the ceiling has a starry sky pattern.
It is currently flying over Pakistan and India. We have 7 hours and 14 minutes left, so I will sleep for about 4 hours and 30 minutes. I slept for about 4 hours and 30 minutes. There are 2 hours and 30 minutes left until arrival.
The air on the plane was dry and I was thirsty, so I had a Pepsi. Kaiseki bento for breakfast. Grilled sea bass, taro, snap peas, shimeji mushrooms, and carrots. Rice. Soba. Miso soup. Tea. Emirates special lunch box. Fruits. The quality is very good, not much different from first class. The cabin is bright.
52 minutes left until arrival. It is already flying over Japan. Open the window shade. Let’s take a look at duty free items. Emirates goods. Keychains and luggage tags seem easy to use. It’s just around evening. Tokyo Narita Airport. There is a lot of shaking when landing.
Emirates A380 Business Class had a comfortable 1-2-1 seating arrangement. Boeing has aircraft with a 2-3-2 seating arrangement, which is not very popular. In first class on the A380, there is a shower spa, and there is a caviar menu for meals.
The fares for business and first are nearly twice as different, but I personally feel that business class is sufficient. Thank you for your viewing.
This is a flight review of Emirates Airbus A380 Business Class (new and old interior). We flew in business class with the old interior from Milan to Dubai, and in business class with the new interior from Dubai to Tokyo.

Enjoy your videos buddy keep it up 🎉🎉🎉❤
Thank you for this wonderful video. It's so nice to feel a little rich to fly somewhere in business class. ❤😊
Very nice ❤
Outstanding as always. You did a magnificent video. I love that you show the detailed menu along with the meals you have chosen but my favourite part was to finally see someone make use of the tail cam. All of your videos are a masterclass in how to film, edit, and add subtitles. Thank you for all your work.
Thank you for taking us along.
Korean air airbus a380 800 o boeing 747-8b5 desde Bolivia cochabamaba 🇧🇴🇰🇷
I see some passengers in the first class dressed like walking rag bags. They must be Americans. I'm American, and our disregard for proper dress is disgusting.
Thanks for sharing❤
❤❤❤❤❤
I Like The A380 Business Class Cabin And The Bar.Great Trip Report
Thank you. 👍. Very nice informative review.
The Emirate Lounge in Milan looked very comfy and the food selection was far better than most lounges visited. Looked delicious too!
Never flewn with A380. But hopefully there will come a time for that too.
Emirates belongs to top 3 Airlines in the world, not only by Skytrax rating.
Their style is a matter of taste, but its quite much to my personal liking.
Keep up your good work. ✌️
Awesome 👌
❤Emirates A380❤
Visual design needs to be reconsidered in Business Class. The whole area looks like surgery theatres rather than aeroplane luxury facility. It might be better to very slightly darken the colours and decrease the amount of tissues that tremble all over the sofas.
