Here is something else I picked up from our Dubai holiday via Gulf News.
British Airways has historically had a bad reputation for bussing passengers from the plane to the airport. Things have massively improved in the last 18 months, of course, since Terminal 5C opened. BA has even started putting on separate buses for business class passengers.
Out in the Gulf, of course, they are doing things bigger and better.

Emirates now has a fleet of these buses for the exclusive use of First Class and Business Class passengers travelling to and from aircraft on remote stands in Dubai. And very nice they look.
How to earn Emirates Skywards miles from UK credit cards (March 2024)
Emirates Skywards does not have a UK credit card. However, you can earn Emirates Skywards miles by converting Membership Rewards points earned from selected UK American Express cards.
Cards earning Membership Rewards points include:
- American Express Preferred Rewards Gold (review here, apply here) – sign-up bonus of 20,000 Membership Rewards points converts into 20,000 Emirates Skywards miles. This card is FREE for your first year and also comes with four free airport lounge passes.
- The Platinum Card from American Express (review here, apply here) – sign-up bonus of 40,000 Membership Rewards points converts into 40,000 Emirates Skywards miles
