As frequent readers of the blog know, back in December I flew Emirates first class from London to Dubai with only a couple of hours advance notice, and it was probably my ultimate travel "high."

I don't think there's a number that can cover the amount of times your drink is topped off/refilled in First or Suites.

I'd like to know the nationality of the pilot. I love hearing English from the Captain on a foreign flagged carrier.

@ dhammer53 -- Believe he was British. Perhaps born in HK to expat parents.

Guessing languages spoken is way too hard! How about posting pics of them guessing where they are from?

Just kidding.

Hmmm... I imagine it'll be rather difficult for you to verify any estimates as to the number of times you're addressed by name/hot towels/servings of drinks while you're still in the air and there surely are more to come up until you leave the plane!

Unless, of course, you plan on simply waiting until your favourite fan's guess has been reached and declaring them winner! 😛

@ Ben -- I'll keep a piece of paper handy and add a slash every time a number in each category is fulfilled. The winner would only be announced upon landing.

I suggest a category for spontaneous fits of giggling while thinking, "I'm showering. On a plane!"

Great idea! Now I know what I'll be doing with my Saturday morning --> obsessively monitoring the comments section and trying to out guess everyone else. 🙂

@lucky - My bad, misread you as saying that you'd be announcing the winner while blogging from 30,000 feet! Although you could still do that if you picked your categories accordingly.

Perhaps we should do a poll on what to guess, being all democratic and such... 😉

a) The number of times I’m addressed by name on the flight
You'll lose track - but it will be at least 8
b) The number of hot towels I’m served throughout the flight
3 = pre take-off, pre meal (both times)
c) The number of languages spoken by the crew 5 - English, Arabic, Japanese, Chinese and German
d)The number of times I’m served drinks or they’re topped off
8 - including the water refills while you are sleeping!

@ Kai -- Nope, can transfer points to anyone's partner loyalty program account (though it has to be a US Membership Rewards transfer partner).

...on another note, your 787 adventure later this month might be in jeopardy with the birds being grounded! Any back up plan?

@ Ken -- Only one of my flights was operated by a 787, so not too worried. Worst case scenario I'll have an old 767 for that segment.
