Emirates has that touch of class something QA lacks severely.

emirates, singapore etc. are the "real deal". QA is just a "wannabe" with all their "me too" gimmicks.

emirates is what QA tries to emulate. the only minus point taking EK from here is the dubai stopover.

If you already are happy with Qatar Airways, you will be happier with EK. Dont worry...

Emirates any time

If you need assistance to get from one gate to the other, they have these golf carts which will ferry you, just ask for assistance.

I once travelled through Emirates Airline 8 years ago via MNl-DXB sector but while having a flight via DXB-Doh our flight was delayed for 2 hours . Anyhow, that was my first time to travel abroad but right now I preferred QATAR AiRWAYS all the time :)

OP- If you are going to travel with your 2 year old kid, i suggest go with QA.

In emirates, you have a stop over in Dubai, for 3 or 4 hours, and you have to take a long walk to get to the next gate., and bringing your luggage and your 2 year old kid is a hassle, however if you are accompanied by another adult, then it is fine as you have a reliever in carrying your kid.

Have a safe flight!

if you don't mind a stop over, it's far better then any other airline. i traveled in emirates to states and didn't had any jet lag.

i tried both QA and Emirates and personally i liked Emirates more although we stopped in DXB for 1 hour (transit) but that added extra fun for the flight.

I traveled with my kids last year and the crew came to offer free instant photo for us and gave some toys for the kids which was nice of them

Better than QA in terms of the aircraft (wide body) and inflight services. Make sure you allocate the first row seat and request for bassinet.
