Emirates Trip Report flying from Dubai to New York JFK onboard one of the Emirates Airbus A380s on a nice autumn day. A scheduled stop was done at Milan Malpensa. A comfortable flight from Dubai to New York onboard one of the Emirates A380s. Both flights were pretty full, although the one from Dubai to Milan was slightly more booked. The A380 offers such comfort and space that, even with the full plane, that 15 h was doable. We departed from runway 12R in Dubai, which means that we took off heading southeast. Just after takeoff, we made a 180° turn to the right to start our flight to Milan. The views we had of Dubai downtown, including all of the skyscrapers (and of course the Burj Khalifa), were just perfect. I sincerely think they couldn't be better. After that, we flew all the way up over the Persian Gulf towards Irak. We flew over Basrah, east of Bagdad, Kirkurk, and Erbil, just before starting to enjoy the amazing views of the mountains close to the Irak-Turkey border. We crossed then Turkey, from southeast to northwest and finally, we entered the Black Sea. We then flew over Bulgaria, Serbia, Bosnia, Croatia, and, finally, Italy. We landed in Milan on time after a nice approach to the south of the Alps. After a 2 hours scheduled layover in Milan, we boarded the same A380 and started our journey to New York. We departed towards the Alps and flew over them during the climb. The views were absolutely amazing. We flew really close to the top. From there we flew over Switzerland, France, and south of the UK and Ireland, before starting to cruise over the North Atlantic ocean. We had a quite long Sunset, as we were flying to the west, but an even longer dusk, that lasted for hours. After 4-5h of only seeing the sea, we finally reached Canada and the US. We landed well ahead of the schedule in New York, ending that way a real ultra-long-haul flight. About the catering onboard, on the 1st flight, there were 2 services. The first one came just after departure, and it was just a warm snack sweet (blueberry pastry) or salty (egg sandwich with cheddar). The second one was the main one, the lunch service. This time there were 2 options as main: pasta with mushroom sauce or beef goulash. I went for the beef. It came with a roasted beetroot and couscous salad as a starter, bread with butter and cheese, and apple crumble as dessert. What am I gonna say about the Emirates catering that you don't already know? It was more than delicious. Five stars service, as always. On the 2nd one there were 2 as well: first came the main service (dinner service). There were 2 options again: lamb and chicken. This time I went for the chicken. It came with a sweetcorn and barley salad as a starter, bread with cheese and butter, and strawberry and redcurrant crumble as dessert. All types of drinks were offered with the meal.
