Emirates Airline launced a new route to Durban, South Africa from the 1st October 2009. This new service has proven to be very convenient except flights are not very full. Well Emirates people, let me tell you why:
1. Emirates is using an old aircraft and an entertainment system that is substandard, not the usual ice entertainment.
2. The business class passengers are flying economy as the business class comfort certainly does not warrant the fare. The seats are cramped and once again substandard due to the old aircraft.
3. And heres the biggest problem of all. Durban Airport Customs are searching through bags for upto an hour after the flight has landed looking for ways and means of making extra money, hence passengers rather fly through Johannesburg (especially locals).
Thats all im going to say right now. You better up your game Emirates or you will flying out of Durban Airport faster than you arrived.
PS. For those that dont know, Emirates flies out of Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town with a total of 5 flights a day. Gearing up for the world cup I suppose...
Emirates is a world renowned airlines. Why is it using such substandard aircrafts when it has some world class one's?
