Now confirming what one of the Sheikh's hinted in April.
Having flown both EK and FZ - I fear that this may actually have a negative imapct for Indian market.
For now I know when I fly FlyDubai I get a great low cost experience on a narrow body. However when I fly EK I know I get a widebody plane 100% times...Infact part of the reason I fly EK from HYD is that with them I get a widebody plane (and much better Business class experience) than EY or QR given the latter use narrow body planes.
EK will really need do a great job here to make this work (Well) from a customer expectation standpoint |
